On the way to Yellowstone.....

We stopped at Buffalo Bill's Hunting Lodge.....



and saw mountains with snow on them.....



and pet some horses..... 

all the horses.....

 while Alex and Kevin jumped down an embankment

and ran toward a raging river

in bear country no less.....

Wait.

Is that a bear!

No.

It's a moose and her baby.

Good thing she didn't feel like chasing my boys out of her territory.

 Also on the way to Yellowstone.....

Ranae and Sarah touched snow for the first time.....

                                                                              

and Kevin touched snow for the first time too.....

only in a different way.

 and Alex joins in on the fun.....

 and not long after that we see our first Grizzly Bear.

He was on the beach eating grubs.

And very hungry.

Ahhhhhh!

Kids get back on the bus!

Oh yes.

And we saw lovely waterfalls too.
