Mother's Day

On Sunday we decided to take a drive and ended up in Yellowstone. When we decided to go I said I had better pack a bag. Kassi decided she did not want to wear diapers so she brought me pull ups and a few other things. Then Wes said to look over at her, and when I did she was packing a bag as well. She had some soup, malted milk, pull ups, ponies, tomatoes, coco powder, potatoes and a book.

This was Kassi's first trip to Yellowstone. We saw about every animal you can in the park with the exception of a wolf. Unfortunately not many of them were in good camera range.

There was a lot of snow still up there. In many some places where they had plowed it was deeper than the pickup is tall. Kassi kept wanting to get out and play in the snow. She did really well being in her car seat for as long as she was and kept resisting falling asleep so it did end up being a short nap day.

We stopped at Fishing Bridge and ate lunch. Kassi even ordered her own meal and said please and thank you to the waitress! Then we bought a few trinkets for her and we headed off to Old Faithful. She had a lot of fun there. This was one place that was fairly clear from snow and there were not many people so she was able to get out and run for a little while, more like 2 hours! When the geyser went off she was saying ooh and pointing and smiling. After this we ate the supper we had packed and headed home.

It was a great day and I couldn't have asked for any better present than the time I got to spend with my family!

Getting ready to go to Yellowstone!

Really deep snow! Notice in the next pictures Kassi is wearing different pants...she decided to sit in the snow and the puddles!
