H. Ray Today: Jackson Hole

As soon as we got home from Texas we were lucky enough to join the Ballam side of the family in Jackson Hole. Landon's grandparents were so generous to treat all of us to a lovely weekend filled with family and fun activities. The drive was absolutely beautiful and I thoroughly enjoyed the scenery. I probably took a million pictures before we even got there.

One of the days we went on a river raft trip. I went on the first half which was just scenic while Cassie stayed home with our babies. Then we switched and I stayed home while she did the white water portion.

We went on a few hikes. It was so beautiful and Hawkes did pretty good for his first time in the back pack.

Landon's cute grandparents joined us for our Yellowstone day. We loved having their company!

We even got to see Old Faithful go off twice.

There were some horses across the street from our cabin and Hawkes asked for them every single day. His animal obsession has really taken off.

There was also a river right by the cabin that he loved going down to and throwing rocks in.

The only down side was the lack of sleep from sleeping next to this guy. Hard to be mad at this cute face though. Landon was not very amused by my use of the flash that early in the morning, but I couldn't help myself. They both just look so much cuter when they are asleep.

One of the nights we went to a chuck wagon dinner. It was a lot of fun to get to hang out with the whole family and the performers were pretty entertaining. We got to spend most of our time outside looking at the horses though thanks to Mr Hawkes. He couldn't get enough.

We were so excited to finally get to use Landon's old cowboy boots from when he was a baby. They were so cute on him. Everyone thought he was "the cutest little cowgirl". Maybe one day people will figure out he is a boy. I'm still refusing to cut his hair though.
