We were thrilled to be able to make our annual Yellowstone trip with some of Bob's family. We always have a great time and love the Park more each time we go.
This year we had a spectacular and adventurous trip. Let's just say we won't need to go to the Park in the Winter. We experienced Yellowstone in the snow...in MAY!
We knew the weather was going to be a little sketchy, but didn't let it stop us. It may have even been the crazy weather that made the animals more active.
We were lucky enough to see 7 Grizzly Bears and 9 black bears. Some were further away than others, but a couple were close to the car. 
We watched this little grizzly digging up roots in the rocks a couple of times. He could really move the rocks.
Before we left on our trip we talked about how the moose of Yellowstone had eluded us, but this trip was totally different...we saw 2 moose, a cow and a bull.
Ethan wanted to become a JR Ranger again, but didn't want to get the same wolf patch as last year, so he chose to do the older, harder activities for the bear patch. We were so proud of him. He's well on his way to a full fledged Park Ranger.
The geysers were amazing as usual. Maybe it was all the extra water and snow.
Another highlight was the 7 wolves that ran right by our car. We watched as they faced off with a small herd of buffalo. It was amazing to see the wildlife being wild. Ethan's favorite part was that one of the wolves was carrying a traffic cone.It was an amazing trip. We have only been back a month and are ready to pack our bags again.
On our way home we took the scenic route to visit Mesa Falls. Bob's dad tipped us off, thanks granddad. Beautiful falls, so green and more time together as a family.
