Yellowstone Pictures!!

By
As promised, here are a ton of pictures for our vacation to Yellowstone!  Just so you know, I took over 200 pictures, so this is just a small sample, haha.  Enjoy!

A beautiful vista just up the road from our cabin.

My handsome husband on the porch of our cabin.

The view from our cabin, don't be jealous.

My new friend...he really likes to finger paint.

Me and the husband near one of the hot springs.


A mud pot.  I hear it is the fountain of youth, just melts wrinkles away.
(Kidding)

My shadow waving to you all the way from Geyser Basin.
The colors at the different geyser basins were so brilliant, I loved it!


Doesn't that look like lava!?  It wasn't, but still looks cool.


What we did while waiting for Old Faithful...ate pudding cups, mmmm.

Old Faithful

Danny and Me by Yellowstone Lake.



By Gibbons Falls

Danny by another waterfall.  I can't remember the
 name of this one.

I loved this view and I really wanted to hike down to
that pond, but we were running low on time, so
maybe next time.

Butterflies

Me by a section of Mammoth Hot Springs.  Danny told me it matched
my hair.

Another picture by Mammoth Hot Springs.

Yellowstone River

My favorite hike from our whole trip was hiking down to the Yellowstone
River.  I had so much fun wading around in the water.

Water break.

Another beautiful view! I couldn't get enough of the scenery. 

A bison by our car.

And then the heavens opened...

We rented a boat and went on a little ride around Hebgen Lake (where
our cabin was).
Geese on the lake.

    I am totally jealous of your view from the cabin! Tim and I were just saying we should go to Yellowstone sometime. Maybe we should make a big family trip; it looks like you guys know where all the good stuff is! I don't think I've been there since I was 4 or 5. Hope you guys had a nice relaxing time before Danny had to start school.

    PS. Thank you for wearing life preservers on your boat ride!

    Michele - It was cute! We had a blast.
    JanaRae - Is that you? My foot picture was taken at the Mid-geyser basin.
    Becky - It was so refreshing, thanks!
    Katie - That would be fun to do a family trip to Yellowstone! It is beautiful up there. And yes, I'm a big fan of life preservers.

Oh Crafty Trees, Oh Crafty Trees...

By
I've become a finals widow, if you will, meaning Danny is crazy busy trying to finish up the semester.  This has given me extra time to use my crafty skills to get our place Christmas ready.  My first creations were these little paper/foam trees.  I've seen a few variations online of this craft. I put my own little twist on it.  They are really easy to make, just takes some time. Here is what you need: Scrap paper Hot glue gun 1" Circle punch Foam cone (at most craft stores) Toothpicks Note:  You are going to go to the craft store to buy the little foam cone and you will see styrofoam glue and you will think to yourself that would be a good thing to buy for this project.  Don't!  I got the styrofoam glue and it didn't work at all.  Just go with your trusty glue gun, it won't let you down. I think it's pretty self-explanatory by looking at the picture.  You just punch circles out from the scrap paper.  Then hot glue the circles to the foam tree in

This Weekend

By
This weekend was a whirlwind experience.  I realize I could split this up into like 4 or 5 different posts, but I'm just going to do one big, long post.  So get a snack, get comfortable and prepare yourselves. Friday Night:  Danny's Concert with his friends, The Atomic Thunderlips Danny performed up at the Layton amphitheater and rocked the house!  I really mean that, he did such  a fantastic job.  He opened for his friends, The Atomic Thunderlips, who also put on an awesome show. I had great fun clapping along to the music with my nephews who came and being a bit of a proud wife in the audience.  We all went out for a late night dinner at Iggy's afterwards, which showed me that I'm not in college anymore, because I got heartburn afterwards.   (Growing old, sigh.) Members of the family that came to support! Me and my nephew Dr. C before the concert. The boys clapping along. He can play with his eyes closed, he's that good. Danny the guitar man

2013 - The Year of Grace

By
I know we are well into 2014, but I'm still in the midst of recounting last year and making goals for this year. As I've looked back on and thought about 2013, I have to admit it has been a rocky year. However, during some of these hard times, I feel like Danny and I have drawn even closer in our marriage. I sure love that man of mine. I really think what makes a strong marriage is facing the tough stuff together. I have also grown closer to my Savior, though at times it didn't always feel like it, which I will discuss more below. I can honestly say, this year has whittled me down to a rather more fragile version of myself.  I think that is what being humbled is.  I have been humbled.  I’m still working on being humble. I think with this past year, I’m understanding more what grace is.  I think you have to experience a lowly place to even feel the need for grace.  I agree with the common phrase: “Do your best.” However, I don’t think we always understand what ou
