"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will—to your surprise—miss them profoundly."
-Pres. Thomas S. Monson

Grammy and Grandpa's Cabin

Last fall my parents broke ground on a new cabin.  My Dad had been dreaming of a modified A-frame cabin ever since I can remember.  It has been really fun to see them make a dream into a reality. 

We went up to "help" work.  With three kids- one of which is a very curious one year old- I don't think I did much helping at all.  Good thing I brought my handy husband!  We did a little bit of work mixed with a little bit of play, and as always, we loved every minute in my favorite place on earth.















After what must be a hundred visits to Yellowstone, we got to do something new!  We were in the right place at the right time, and we got to climb to the very top of Old Faithful Inn.  We explored the Crow's Nest, went to the roof and even lowered the American flag and the Wyoming state flag. It was a once in a lifetime experience, and it was so fun to share it with my kids and parents.  We couldn't wipe the grins off our faces for the rest of the trip!
