Here's our home away from home-Ponderosa cabin at Glacier Lodge. We've stayed there once before but most years we stayed at the YMCA of the Rockies. Glacier Lodge is perfect for us now though-they have a pool, lots of space to play, a playground, and a stable on the property. We could have just stayed there all week with no side trips and been happy!
Kiran and Addie played so well together!
Doak loved playing outside.
Addie got the first injury of the week about an hourafter we arrived and had a lovely black eye all week!
the Tennessee Browns
Elk came right up to our cabin, we saw chipmunks,mountain goats, and a bear went through the trash at Jeff and Ami's cabin!
Mom and Dad sent us out on a date to Dunraven Inn. We enjoyed the food and each other's company and knew that the kids were in good hands with Cookie and Papa Phil!
Doak loves to swing just like his sister.
The kids rode ponies 2 times. Here is Kiran, Jeff, and Little Joe.
Kiran came prepared and wore his cowboy boots all week!
Addie rode Duke and loved it!
Doak loves to be nakey. He and Cookie must have been sharing some secret joke!
Ellery turned one on our trip and we celebrated with a yummy dinner and cake and ice cream.
Check out the cake that Ami made-she is amazing!
One last pony ride before we head home. Addie rode Pinecone and Kiran rode Duke.
We rode a mini train and then Addie and Daddy drovea bumper boat. Ami and Kiran drove one too and they all had a great time.
Snack time in the beautiful outdoors. 
Big girl Ellery on her birthday.
We were comparing Ellery and Doak's size-Ellery is 12 months and Doak is 7 months-aren't they sweet?
We loved hanging out on the porch.

The whole family (pretend my head isn't covering up Doak!)
