Jackson Hole

Today we shopped at Jackson Hole.  There were so many fun shops and we found some great finds.  

Grand Teton National Park

After a day yesterday driving we finally landed in Grand Teton National Park.  We spent the day exploring the beautiful scenery.  Dad was able to make it all the way up to the Inspiration Point.  Kiddos decided they didn't want to hike it but climb and play with the rocks below.  

Custer State Park

We never captured a picture of the National Park sign, but today we spent our day hiking and driving around Custer State Park, and Needle's Eye.  We also came across a ton of bison.  Afterward, we went back to the hotel where the kids enjoyed swimming in the hotel pools.  

South Dakota's Historical Sites

Today we went to some of the most known places in South Dakota.  We went and saw Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, and explored the Black Hills.  The kids' favorite part of the day was being able to take a piece of rock home from the explosions at Crazy Horse.  

Fun Day in South Dakota

Today we started our day by hiking/exploring the Badlands.  The kids loved it here so much because they could do so much climbing.  We then stopped by to see the Minute Missile Museum, which was really fascinating.  Around lunchtime, we got back in the car and drove to Hill City where we stayed the remainder of our time in South Dakota.  We spent the rest of our day going to  Chuckwagon Show, the sight where "Dances with Wolves" was filmed and our friend's parents own.  Lastly, we hit up one of our favorite places on our trip, Bear Country.  Where animals roamed free and right up to your car.  It was a very fun and busy day!
