Spring Break 2018

We wanted to go somewhere with Gracie for Spring Break. Sometimes it's hard cause she is so much younger than the other kids so none of them could join us. We decided to go up to Yellowstone National Park especially since Gracie loves animals.

We stayed at the Stage Coach Inn. 

In the morning we went to the visitors center to see what we could do and they told us that the park was closed to cars. We could only go in walking or riding bikes. Hmmm. Didn't plan ahead there. But we went for a pretty drive that morning anyway.


Then we went to the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center


We got to see the wolves up close! Pretty awesome!




Lots of snow still :)

Gracie participated in this activity where kids can go into the area where the bears and and they hide food for them. Of course the bears are not there while the kids are but it's fun to see the bears find their food when they come out.


We could only find on restaurant open and while we waited for our food we took some fun pictures!



On Friday we wanted to go see a waterfall but found out the road was closed because there was too much snow so we decided to rent snowmobiles so that we could go see it. It was an AWESOME ride!


Might as well make snow angels!

There was no one else there! We had the forest to ourselves! 


Later that afternoon we walked into Yellowstone Park. It was beautiful!


Gracie had fun in the snow!

Although the trip didn't quite go as planned we had lots of fun with Gracie, we experienced nature, and we made lots of memories!
