Island Park Family Vacation

Every year we head to Island Park for a long weekend with Shelby's extended family. It is one of my favorite traditions of our summer. For one thing- I love Shelby's family and my best friend is actually his cousin- the kids have a blast and there is so much to do. We always head into West Yellowstone- some years we take old fashioned family pictures (coming soon) and sometimes we just shop and see all the animals. This year Wyatt talked me into a slingshot in West Yellowstone- then he spent the rest of our camping trip shooting small pinecones at the trees. They love riding their bikes, canoeing as a family, floating the little river, spending time on the beach at the reservoir, and of course we EAT.



We always go on a fun nature hike to Big Springs to feed the large fish there, and usually see some wildlife- this time there were a male and female moose about 10 yards off of our trail! I was a little worried what would happen with us so close- but we just backed up a bit and they crossed the trail and run up into the trees.
