Driggs/Yellowstone Park

About an hour after Adam and Kari's wedding luncheon (June 14, 2014) and after they drove away with cans and bottles clinging loudly on the streets, we hung around the chapel and waited for grandpa Hodges' flight to get into to Idaho Falls. The chapel was just 5 min from the airport. Once Grandpa's flight got in from Colorado we came back to the chapel and watch a mini movie on Ryan's I-Pod. The girls called it, "The World's Smallest Movie Theatre". We had to wait for Grandma Trudy's flight from California to get in. So once she arrived and we picked her up we headed to Driggs Idaho where we stayed with Wendy and Jerry in their log cabin. 

While we were there we did a lot of fun things...We went exploring, hiking, we played lots of board games together, spent an entire day at Yellowstone Park, saw Old Faithful in all it's glory! The girls' however, thought it was going to be a big playground with slides and swings.  So they were a bit disappointed when, while traveling through Yellowstone with all the endless trees, they asked, "when are we going to get to the park?" We told them that this IS the park. I guess we weren't thinking that their definition of "park" would be different than ours. But they had a good time nonetheless. 

 We went to a play called, "Paint your wagon." We saw a street fight in Jackson Hole Wyoming. We took a tour boat ride along Jenny Lake in Wyoming and that was so fun. It was so beautiful too. And we stuffed ourselves silly by eating out at many fun restaurants and cafes. I think we all gained 5 pounds but the end of the week! But it was worth it! We all had such a great time together! Made a lot of great memories too.
