{Jackson Hole}

Today was such a FUN day for our little family! It couldn't have gone better. We headed up to Jackson and went to the Elk Refuge, where we got to go on a sleigh ride to see all the thousands of elk. It was so incredible to be that close to them! If you haven't done this, you need to, we had a great time. And the kids were in heaven just being outside. They cared more about the horses that were pulling our sleigh so we of course had to take pics when we got done. We couldn't have chose a better day either, it was so nice!
Then we ate lunch at a place that had the best salad bar (that is like my favorite thing!) Then we headed over to the Jackson Rec center to take the kids swimming. They had a blast! I'm sad i didn't take any pics of that but i didn't want to take my camera in the pool area. We had never taken Pays swimming and he had a great time, he went down the big water slide with Broc and the little one all by himself! He helped Brylee be more brave in the water cuz watching him made her want to be more daring. It is the funnest place to take kids cuz there's a huge kiddy area with 1-2 Ft. water that they can just walk around in. Another place you should go if you have kids! (too bad Rexburg can't get something like that...grrr) My kids need swimming lessons! Anyways, i'm so glad we had such a great day (a much needed one at that!) Thanks Broc for everything, your the best!!!









The guide offered to take pics so we tried to get a family one but it's blurry and pays is kind of hidden but oh well, we tried!

Sounds like a great day. My girls would enjoy the pool. Bailee and ella both love the water. Ella loves it a little too much. She will jump in and go under water. I have never been up to Jackson. We will have to go one of these days.

What a fun day with your family. We used to love doing that when we were closer, it makes me sad we are not there now. Cute family!

Sounds like a lot of fun. I LOVE Jackson. We went to the elk refuge a few years back and my kids loved it. I SO wish that Rexburg had a Rec Center like Jackson's. I agree with your "GRRR"!!

Great pictures, Amber! Good for you for taking advantage of the things "right outside your back door". I have been wanting to go to Silver City since we moved to Kuna and I've just never done it. Maybe this year will be the year!
