We haven't been camping in ages. It was so much fun to go to Yellowstone this weekend and camp. Liam and Aidan were so good, and made the trip wonderful for Grandma and Grampa.

The one sad thing was that while we were down on the edge of Yellowstone Lake, a gust of wind took my favorite hat into the lake (It's the one I'm wearing in the photo on top of the Coba Pyramid) The Ranger thought she had a pole that could reach it (but it wasn't long enough) and while we were waiting, this huge group of Chinese came by on the boardwalk, and they all had to have their pictures taken with the hat in the background. The ones with the cameras were giving directions like "Point to the hat and smile!" At least that's what I thought they were saying because they all posed by pointing to the hat and smiled for the photos to be taken!

At dinner by the Old Faithful Inn, we were the main course for the gazillion mosquitoes.

We were surprized by all the geysers spouting around old faithful including one down by the lake that the ranger, who couldn't rescue my hat, said never happens.

We had a great time and can't wait to go again soon!

It looks like you guys had a great time. Maybe next time you will invite our family! J/k I love all the pics, very cute. Sorry to hear about your hat, well not really, I never liked that hat to much. It was a sign, no more old man florida hats for you! That is unless you move down there and live in a retirement community, then by all means get another hat like that.
