Camping in the Tetons

This weekend we went camping with my brother's family! Brad, Angie and Abby came up to Idaho Falls and then we headed over to the Grand Tetons in Wyoming. Brad and Angie brought a mammoth tent for all of us to sleep in together (and really, it's not just a huge tent, it's mammoth size, and it was so fun) and had a blast hanging out together! These 2 little cousins were so cute playing together.

 We had a lot of fun with glow sticks :)

TJ had fun with his battle ax :) He and Brad made our fire completely from foraged wood, and they were very proud of themselves. 

We roasted many a marshmallow for s'mores. And just for eating.

S'more of what? I haven't had anything yet.....

We also made yummy banana boats :)

Hunter didn't get much sleep that night. He refused to stay in his sleeping bag for whatever reason so he was freezing. He got a few hours of sleep, which meant that's about how much I got as well. Haha. He was so excited to have this hot chocolate in the morning! I think he had about 3 cups. This is his "aaaah!" face.

These cousins were adorable eating their bananas together! And thanks to Angie for snapping these pictures!

After we'd cleaned up camp we drove to String Lake and hiked around it. It's a 3.7 mile hike and it is easy to moderate according to the sign. Talk about a gorgeous place! Every view we got was breathtaking. And we couldn't have asked for better weather.

There were several small waterfalls along the trail and the kids loved when they got to touch them :) TJ and Brad got their squats in ;)

After the hike Hunter and Abby went to town throwing rocks!  They both got soaked :)

We drove down to the trailhead for Jenny Lake to have a picnic lunch and the kids threw more rocks. 

Then we drove home to Idaho :) Thanks for coming up guys!! We had so much fun camping!! Minus some of us being sick. That was no fun. We will just have to go again!!
