The lower falls dad snapped that picture at the wrong time we all look a little upset. It's probably because we had to hike down to the falls and we were tired.

A bear
We say two bears in Yellowstone but I only got pictures of this one. Dad says its a black bear. I didn't use my zoom to much that thing was extremly close to me and it started walking right towards me. It was great!
Mom, dad, charlie and I went to Yellowstone one of the times they came out it was so much fun we spent the whole day in yellowstone.
I sure had a lot of fun with all the boat boys. Charlie everytime I saw him he was eating a buger that was bigger than his face.
This is where I lived for 1 month. It didn't work out so I moved back to the motel across the street from the main office at Mack's. It was some fun living there I guess.
The bathroom didn't have a door because they were remodeling the place and when we moved in they kind of forgot about the bathroom doors.
THE TOWER!!!!
I know it sounds scary but it is the most amazing thing about good old Mack's Inn! Its this old fire watch tower that they shut down years ago. It looks out over all of Island Park and much more. Island Park has the longest main street in America so this tower can see quite a bit. Its kind of neat you have to hike to it which is about 1 mile and then the first flight of stairs are missing so you have to climb up the side. Its really tall so if your afraid of heights its not the best thing to do. I went to it 3 times while I was up there once with my brother Chuck and some friends. Then the second time I went at mid-night with my roommate and some of her friends we had one flash light that worked so to scare away the animals we sang and talked really loud. There are bears at Mack's they just put one down about a month ago, so going at night not the best thing. Then the third time I went with the single adults at night again but we had lots of lights and there were more boys this time. I had fun! We saw a moose that time well we saw its eyes...CREEPY!!!!
Bugs!!
When I first moved up to Mack's my cousins and aunt warned me about the Mosquito's in the summer time and told me I won't believe it until I see it. Not joking when I say this; we were so worried that the owner would get mad at us for painting our rooms. When all we did was smash stupid Mosquito's. At the end of living there it maybe took a whole day scrubbing the walls clean. One night I couldn't even sleep because they were so bad. In the employee housing we had a commons room and even though you were inside you would at least get 9 new bites just from being in the room and that was inside. I can't begin to explain what happened when you were outside. You would be walking down the road and see this mist a head of you and walk right into a swarm of Mosquito's. My mom thought I was being beaten when she saw my leg and that was only when I had 12 bites from my ankle to my knee. That isn't even that bad! Bug spray went by the hour in the office we always had to get a new bottle.
There are two bite on Charlie's arm! There is a small one and then a huge one! It looks like he has two elbows!
Mom and dad came a couple of times to visit and everytime we always went somewhere cool. That lake has a story to it.....!
Friends for Life!!!
Korben was one of my favorite people to hang out with while I was up there. He is my cousin Brittany on my dad side son. He was a lot of fun. He made me play video games with him and I was dying so he tried to help me but it didn't work. The little baby head you can see in the background is Korbens little brother Braydon.
This bird was almost fake looking it had a green head and a blue body. I walked out of my room and was headed to work when I saw this just chillen there. So I slowly backed up to my room got my camera and tried to take a picture and this is all I could get before it flew away.
My friend and I when we got up to Mack's Inn went on this amazing little hike together. We were just walking around the Box Canyon River and came across these stairs this picture doesn't even show how high they were. When I saw them I looked at my friend and siad well this is where the Hike ends for me. He laughed pushed me aside and said "race you to the top!" I just laughed and said "Looks like you won." It took him awhile to get me convinced to climb those stairs but when I did we came to a river called the Buffalo River and it was beautiful! I was very pleased with myself when I looked down the stairs. My friend found another way back to the car, because he and I both knew I would falll down them!
There are so many beautiful things about Island Park I didn't have my camera all the time but I did try to capture as much of the beauty as I could.
The picture below is the Box Canyon River a lot of my friends went tubing down this river on there days off I never really had a day off so I didn't ever get to go. But I heard it was a lot of fun with all the rapids!
Okay so the tree below is one of those things that you just didn't know why but you had to take a picture of it.

The Sky In good old Island Park!
Living in Island park I came to realise how beautiful the sky is up there. When I would come to Utah to visit I would always notice how different the sky can be. Sure do miss it!
I'm moving to Mack's Inn until September and I won't have a computer that I can blog on so this is my last post for awhile. I'm very excited and it is a new adventure and I just figure that I can have fun moving around now but once I get married I'm stuck in one place. I will miss everyone and love you all. Can't wait!!! :-)
The one Below is Old Faithful!
Mom, Jade, TJ, Charlie and I went up to Yellowstoone for a little road trip. We had a blast we went and saw Old Faithful and walked around and looked at a lot of hot springs. We had a lot of fun. We also went to Mack's Inn where I will be moving on in two days.
While you drive threw Yellowstone animals are always right by the road.The Bison on the other hand are always on the road and they own it so get out of their way. I never used my zoom button on my camera they were really that close at one point I could have reached out and touched one.
The Elk were just chillin by the river that runs along the road. They are so use to people they didn't even act like they saw us.
Its great getting to spend time with this little guy I love him so much.
Jade and Tim go play softball or volleyball each week and I get
to watch TJ while they play its tons of fun!

As I get ready to move on to a new adventure...Idaho here I come!
My poor bare room it was so sad seeing my room like this.But it is so exciting to be moving, my roommate Stacey did not want
me to be leaving her!
Sad to say that this is what I lived off of while I was going to school this year. You can ask my roommates I tried to eat peanut butter with almost everything! When I saw my Oreo's in the cupboard I just knew that they were meant to be.
For my birthday I got a camera. I've been needing one. I didn't get any of myself but thats fine with me and I didn't get any of mom she was sick and wouldn't let me take one of her. The day kind of started off kind of sad Jade and TJ didn't get to come down because mom is so sick and then mom was sick so it was quite at our house. Oh well I had fun!
I don't have any pictures this time because Jade took the battery to my Camera. Just thought I would let everyone know that I'm still alive and lovin life! I'm finishing up school although this was my roughest year of school it was my favorite. I have learned a lot over the past couple of months. Well things are good and I will get new pictures as soon as I can.
McCall, Cade and I went to Temple square during the Christmas lights they were so beautiful. I finally got a computer so now I can blog more!! I will try to stay caught up on my blog.
