Day 547: YELLOWSTONE!

Yes, today we experienced Yellowstone National Park.  I haven't been here since I was a kid, so of course, the kids have never been.

It was a quick trip, so we just hit the high lights.  Mainly, the geysers and hot pots, Old Faithful, and some magnificent waterfalls.  We actually got to see Old Faithful errupt twice because we ate lunch there and it went shortly after we arrived, and just before we left.  Even Baby B was quite impressed with this.  He kept pointing and saying, "Oh, wow!"  So cute!  And  total Joyful Moment watching the kids take it all in.

It was also fun pointing out elk and bison.  Or, "puppies" as Baby B dubbed them all.

And we got to do all of this with HH's family.  So, there were even more Joyful Moments in watching the kids giggle over stinky geysers together.

A really good day.

With a nightmarish ending.  But that's to be expected on a super long day with this many people, right? (c:

Wishing you all Joyful Moments on really good days--minus the nightmarish ending!
