Jenny Lake~ Grand Teton National Park

OK, here are the pictures from our hike at Jenny Lake! There are a lot... Sorry! :/
I just LOVE pictures!! hehe!

You'll notice that I couldn't take to many pictures of the Tetons! I love those mountains! (in case you hadn't read that in my other posts...)

To get to the start of the hike, we took a boat across the lake...

Kernan loves boats! Doesn't he look so cute with his awesome Wall-E sunglasses?!

Maci didn't get the memo to wear "hiking" shoes! She hiked it in clear jelly sandals! She even climbed trees in them! But at the end of the day, her feet were disgusting!! I made her soak them for a long time!!

Kernan did so well!! He hiked most of it on his own! I thought we were going to have to carry him a lot more then we did!!

Stopping to feel the water... it was Cold!!

We hiked up to Inspiration Point... It was a mile long.

Then we all took a break up there...

Chilling with Daddy!

He was so cute! He just took it all in!

While we were relaxing, a squirrel decided to come see us... We had all been quoting UP whenever we'd see a squirrel! Brian does the best impression! "Squirrel... Hi There!" :) hehe!
Photobucket

Look at how close he got! Those are Brian's feet! Kernan was so funny! He thought it was a fun game to scare any squirrel that came close to him! He'd run to them and go "huh" really loud! It was the funniest thing! :)

Working our way back down, Kernan wanted Grandma to help him. One perk to Kolby not being around is my Mom and Dad have gone up a notch with Kernan! He was Grandma's buddy on this trip, where normally he's Kolby's buddy! My Mom was loving it!

On our way back down we went over and checked out "Hidden Falls"...
It's beautiful! I couldn't decided if I liked it better in color or black and white so I put up both! :)

Kernan rode down on people's back the last 1/2 mile or so...

After our hike we went to the Jackson Lake Lodge for dinner... I love this lodge, all along the back are just huge windows so your view is the Tetons! So pretty!
Photobucket

We ate dinner at the Pioneer Grill inside the lodge, they had the best chocolate shakes!! Kernan really enjoyed them!
Photobucket

He also enjoyed the Lucky Charms he had for dinner! Can't you tell, it's all over his face! :)
Photobucket

Maci ordered a shake and then annoucned that the only reason she wanted it was for the cherry on top! Dang kid!
So no worries, Dad and Kernan took care of it for her!

Photobucket

Ahhh... So good!
Photobucket

Their shakes were pretty pricey so we were kinda upset that Maci ordered it and then didn't want it... But Brian said, "I guess if she didn't we wouldn't have had the picture oppurtunity with Kernan that we did." Gosh, is he married to a photographer or what?! What a good hubby I have!! I just love him!
It was such a fun day! I just love it up there!! More from Yellowstone in a couple days!

My brother is now in Spokane! He called today from the airport and sounds GREAT! He's so ready to go and do whatever the Lord will ask of him! He's going to be a great missionary for the people in WA! The past few weeks since we dropped him off have really gone by quickly! (thankfully) I hope that the rest of his mission goes by just as quick! And the he continues to LOVE it like he has so far! I'm so proud of my brother!!

The cherry huh? Somebody had to tell her the chocolate is the best part.

OK you've convinced me that we have to go up there for a family vacay. Where did you stay?
