Shawn's sister and her family came into town on Friday. We have had a great time with Leigh, Brian, Nicholas (almost 4), and Max (just turned 2). On Saturday we drove up to Swan Valley, Idaho. We stayed at my parents cabin Saturday night. Sunday we drove through Teton National Park and then into Yellowstone. We walked around Old Faithful first. Then we drove over to Lower Falls. Our weather wasn't wonderful but it wasn't horrible either.... a little on the chilly side, with intermittent rain. We stayed at Lake Lodge on Sunday night. On Monday we drove up to Mammoth Hot Springs. On the way to the springs, we saw a wolf. We also saw lots of Bison, Elk, 3 coyotes, and 2 moose. We drove out of the park through West Yellowstone and went to Bear World on the way back to Swan Valley. At Bear World, you can drive around and see Black and Grizzle Bears. Since we didn't actually see a bear in the park, we decided to do this. They had a small area where they had some bear cubs, those were the cutest to see. We hung out that evening back in Swan Valley. Monday evening Cruz took his first steps. He doesn't want to walk but we kind of tricked him. We put his bottle out in front of his face and he started walking toward it all by himself. He took 3 good steps. Today we hung out in the morning and then drove back to SLC. Cruz took more steps tonight. My post is kind of random, but it is late and I just wanted to document some things in our life!
