Lots of Gogs!

Every year my mom, sister and I (and now Madison) go on a girls trip. Vanessa, who is working at a guest ranch near Cody, WY met us in West Yellowstone on Thursday. Matt flew up on Friday morning to drive through Yellowstone with us since he had only been once before many years ago with the Parkers. We had so much fun driving through the park, wandering through West Yellowstone, swimming and watching movies! Madison really enjoyed the trip and every time she saw an animal she pointed her finger and excitedly said, "gog!!" (dog in Maddie speak).

Elk "gogs"


Buffalo "gog"

Bear "gog" at Yellowstone Bear World

The pot-belly pig "gog" at Yellowstone Bear
World... Maddie cried when it snorted at her

Maddie LOVED swimming at the pool!


Gotta love the baby thighs!

The huge teddy bear couch

There is nothing sweeter than a sleeping baby!
Thanks Grandma and Aunt Nessa for such a fun trip!!

Sad to admit I have never been to Yellowstone! Looks like so much fun! It is so cute that Madison called all the animals "gogs!"...isn't it fun when they start the talking phase!

I can't wait to take Jack up there at the end of this month! I'm glad you're back though because we need to get together and play!
