Buffalo, Bears, Fish, Gold, Dinosaurs, and Airplanes

Well, we've done some fun things the last few weeks... We've driven through Yellowstone about 6 times and we've seen LOTS of buffalo.

We saw a mother grizzly and her 4 cubs!!!

Big Horn Sheep

More of the mother and her cubs.

We had a picnic, but it started snowing and only Julie and Grant were brave enough to finish their lunch outside of the car.

Awesome view....the scenery is cool too. ;)

QUESTION: How can this....

Start out like this?!?!?!

REVENGE OF THE BUFFALO!!! We were stuck here for about 20 minutes.

We camped in the muddiest camping spot ever! It rained all evening, night, and the next day. The Barrott MEN had their annual fishing contest and guess who won.... DAS RIGHT T-WILL!!!

Tyler caught 7 fish. Second place was 3!

Then we stayed the weekend at Uncle Brad and Aunt Michelle's cabin. We played on their new wave runners and did some boat surfing. :D

Then, Tyler, me, Jacob, Grant, and Emily went camping again. Tyler researched a spot for gold panning....

We found a few tiny specks! But it most definitely was gold!

I love camping!

I used my chard fire poking stick to draw this masterpiece!

No one new this rock was actually a furious velociraptor head!

This was a cool shed we drove by with license plates covering the entire outside.

And tonight was such a beautiful summer night, I suggested we make paper airplanes and launch them off the Willis' back deck! So fun!!!

We found some good designs online!

Lots got stuck in funny places...

By the time the sun was down we had made a few different kinds of planes. Some awesome, some not so good.
Here is Tyler with the best airplane of them all.

And this was my not so good one...
