Yellowstone

We had been dreaming of an anniversary trip to Yellowstone, but wasn't sure if we would be able to fit it into our crazy summer schedule.  We decided that last weekend was our only chance... so we took it! 

We left Thursday after work and spent two nights in West Yellowstone, and then one night in Jackson Hole (where we spent the second half of our honeymoon).  We had tons of fun and I LOVED Yellowstone!  So beautiful.

 Tons of Buffalo of course


 This was one of my favorite stops because of all the incredible colors!






 Aren't those colors just incredible?!

 Hello Old Faithful


 Coyote!


 This buffalo is standing right next to our path back to our car... so we had to climb up this steep hillside to get around him without getting mauled.  

 The Grand Canyon of Yellowstone.  Beautiful waterfall and Gorgeous canyon!



 Who's afraid of the big bad wolves?

This trip really had me wishing I had a much bigger zoom lens, especially when we saw these wolfs.

 This one's called Emerald Pool... I wonder why?




 Mammoth Hot Springs!

We love to search for wildlife, and on this trip we were determined to see a Bear.... 

 And we saw 4!

Mama bear and her two cubs!!

 Tetons!  Such cool mountains.

Found this beautiful hillside on one of our off-road adventures.
