So, I calculated it up. Of the 60 days of summer vacation so far the boys and I have been out of town for approximately 28 of those days!! Nate has joined us for about 5 of those days but WHOA. No wonder my garden produced nothing but weeds and my ward thinks I am pretty much inactive. I've probably got the neighbors wondering if our marriage is on the rocks. I told Nate....maybe I'm supposed to be a trucker or something. Hehe.....no way.
2 days after Starnespalooza my travel buddy, best friend, and wonderful GRANDMA EE came up and we jumped in the car and headed up for our yearly vacation up at Yellowstone! It was a quick trip and we didn't see too many animals this time since we were headed the wrong way and we were there at the wrong time of day. It's still a magical place and unlike anywhere else on earth.
After Yellowstone we headed north and then over to Bozeman Montana to see Nate's Aunt Suzan. She used to volunteer at the AMAZING museum up in Bozeman and she told us to come up and see the FROG exhibit going on. It really was awesome! Suzan was our own personal tour guide and the boys loved learning about all of the different frogs from all over the world. There is also a huge exhibit on dinosaurs and on Yellowstone and even on pioneers! It was SUCH a fun place to visit!
Grandma couldn't get enough of the SWEET PEAS all over the gardens! They were all so big and beautiful and smelled DIVINE!
Later that afternoon we headed back home. We were only gone for 2 days but it felt like a week! My 75 year old Grandma is the absolute BEST. I'm so grateful I have a buddy who loves to see the world with me from my passenger seat. There aren't many Grandmas out there who are as active, adventurous, and as fun as she is. We're already planning next years trip.....GLACIER NATIONAL PARK!
