Our Summer Vacation in Coeur d 'Alene and Yellowstone

Matt had off work the whole week before July 4th so we decided to take a trip up to Idaho to visit his sister Mary and her family. They live up in a beautiful part of Idaho where it is very green and there is an awesome lake close. So we spent the days at the lake swimming and fishing. We also went rock climbing and celebrated Parli’s 5th birthday. It was a fun trip and the kids loved having their cousins to play with all day long. Thanks to Mary and Jared for making it a fun trip.
On the way home we decided to take a little detour for a couple of days and visit Yellowstone. We stopped in there when I was little and we were moving from California to Missouri but I hadn’t been back so I was excited to go see it again. We got to see Old Faithful right as it went off. We also saw buffalo, deer, a bald eagle, and two black bears. Here are some pictures from the trip.
