Jackson Hole ...

I know I'm way overdue {as usual} for an update but I guess it's only going to get worse the longer I procrastinate!

Mom and Dad invited me and Anthon to go to Jackson Hole with them and stay at the Teton Club {which was awesome!!} and we asked Jess and Ty if the kids could stay with them a couple nights ... which after the disaster they created for me earlier in the week I was needing a break :) They gladly took them and the kids were sooooo excited! We got up to Jackson Thursday afternoon and after checking in, went into town for a little shopping and dinner. We ate at the Cadillac Grille, which is awesome, and then headed back to the condo. The weather was perfect! Tone and I went to relax in the hot tubs and then we all played games until 1am! Friday we were planning on going river rafting but there wasn't too many people going yet as the water was pretty high so we decided to go into the Park ...

Mom worked at Signal Mtn Lodge for quite a few summers before she married Dad and it was fun to go by where she worked and see the Lodge still there! This is the lake she worked on and what a gorgeous backdrop! I made Tone pull over to get a pic ... he wouldn't open his eyes for a pic but it was still beautiful!

other than this cute little friend I made,

we only saw a bunch of elk ... oh and I think we saw some cranes too ... I thought they were ostrich's but after getting laughed at pretty good realized they weren't in these neck of the woods! Here's a couple more shots that I have to share ...

{I literally had to hang out the window to take this because Tone wasn't going to pull over any more for me to take more landscape pictures! ha!}

We got back to the condo and cleaned up so we could go to opening night at the Bar J Ranch! We were so excited we got there opening weekend! It is always great fun and they put on a fantastic dinner and show! We got there early enough to get in on some of the dutch oven scones they do and to watch them cook all the steaks on their huge grill {which dad and Tone loved to watch}.

If you've never been here, it's so worth it! They are so funny!

Saturday we got up and took a tram ride to the top of Rendezvous Mountain {where we were staying}! It was an amazing view!! It's the first tram in Jackson and just opened up this past winter. There was a ton of skiers still going up and off-trail and a lot of para-sailers jumping off the mountain when we reached the top! It looked like fun ... maybe next time we'll brave it!

Thanks again Dad and Mom for everything! It was an amazing trip and so fun to be with you! oh and on a side note ... the kids were so good for Jess and Ty ... how that happened, I don't know! They both slept all night and Bay even slept in her own bed! Crazy! Thanks again for making it possible for us to leave and not have to worry about our kiddies!! Love you all!
