Grand Tetons

We took the entire week off after Jerad's wedding so that we could explore Wyoming with our loved ones.  

We had brunch with a group of our college friends on the morning after the wedding and then headed to Grand Teton National Park to hike.  

We decided to hike Jenny Lake which is a very popular hike in the park.  

We took a boat over to the trail head and then worked our way across the park from there.  

Boat ride on Jenny Lake with the kids and our friends. 

The view from the boat. 

We started the hike at the trail head and they said it was a mile up to inspiration point.  

Chance did amazing and walked the entire way up on his own.  

The falls are a stopping point half way up. 

It was a lot of fun to be with the Springers and Fountaine on this hike.  

We got lots of comments from people that were passing by about all of the kids that we had in tow with us as well as a few inquiries about Kansas because of Fountaine's sweatshirt.

The view from the top...pictures don't quite capture how truly beautiful this place was.

We took the long hike back in hopes of seeing some wildlife.  We had to switch who carried the children for awhile, but it was worth it because we got to see a moose and some crazy birds that I already forgot the names of.  

No bears...thank God!

Until next time Teton National Park.  You truly are remarkable.
