Yellowstone

For our family trip this year, we decided that we would be adventurous, so we reserved a campground, packed up our car (and fit everything amazingly enough), and headed to Yellowstone National Park. I was really excited because I've never been there, and I'd heard so much about it. We were entranced by the beauty of the place, amazed by the many different wonders of nature that we saw, and absolutely loved seeing so many different kinds of animals. We can't wait to go back there in a few years once our kids are a bit older and do even more things with them!

Old Faithful. We were lucky and got there just a few minutes before it erupted.
