Yellowstone

We visited Yellowstone this summer and were impressed with the variety of nature's beauty and wonders. It was busy too, we checked off seeing 43 of the 50 state's license plates while in the different parking lots at Yellowstone.

The timing was perfect for seeing Old Faithful, it went off 5 minutes after we arrived.





We saw all the usual animals...Bison and Elk. Alia really wanted to see a bear and on our second day of visiting we got to see one right off the road.

The wrap up

The end of May and beginning of June were lots of finishes - Alia's last competition as a junior rower, piano recital for Madelyn and Ashlie, a horse show, seminary graduation and Alia's graduation from the community college. We're proud of our children and all they are accomplishing.
