We drove up to see Debbie Davis at her cabin in Island Park, ID - near West Yellowstone. We love it there! It is so beautiful - and Debbie spoils us rotten - What's not to love? We love the hammock-time !
And...Debbie feeds us well... well, she feeds SOME of us...
(she's gonna kill me for using this, but it's so dang cute! ) Colby absolutely LOVED being outside:
We rode on ATV's (we sandwiched Colby in between Lindsay & I & went for a short ride)then Lindsay and Debbie dropped Colby & I off & they donned all the equipment & took off for more fun.
We went to Howard Springs - a place where fresh spring water comes right out of the mountain!
Then we went to the Mountain Man Rendevous... (think Shakespeare Festival only all the men are dressed as mountain men & there's alot of weapons & pelts etc.) A man named Rabbit made a gun for Colby & Debbie learned to play the jaw harp.
Of course, no visit would be complete without going to Playmill Theater in West Yellowstone. It's a small little theater, owned by members of the church, that have BYU and BYUI students come to do 3 musicals each summer. It is great fun! We saw Beauty & the Beast. Colby loved the music and dancing scenes.... the talking ... not so much.
We had a wonderful 4 days ! Colby had tons of new experiences - like... getting stuck under the tables...
or... swinging with nana...
Hearing the sound of the gravel from the driveway crunch under his feet - or better yet, picking up the rocks and throwing them! (such a boy!)
learning about pinecones.... and don't you know where they went after looking at them....
And... feeling Debbie's vibrating tooth brush!
Colby pretty much expressed how we all felt for several days. It's wonderful to see things again through the eyes of a child. They are so thrilled with every little thing. It reminded me to be more grateful for the beauties of this world!

Thanks Deb for a wonderful get-away!!!

You are in such trouble. I thought we had an agreement about those banned photos. You are not to be trusted with a camera or a blog. Axel and his absolute cuteness is the only thing saving you. And to think I was missing you. OK. I do miss y'all; but beware, I will exact my revenge, even if it means starting my own blog.
