More Camping!!!

When we went to Yellowstone last month we bought the pass that you can go to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park. We decided to take an overnight camping trip to Teton yesterday.

It was Gorgeous ! I could not believe how green it was or how huge the mountains were! This doesn't show the mountains that well but it really shows the green. We were on a four wheel trail for this pic...

We went to Jackson Lake the first day just to let the kids swim. It was really hot out but I do not know who those kids played in the water. The water was COLD!

On tuesday we went to Jenny Lake to see the Hidden waterfalls. The hike to the falls was 2.5 miles one way. We decided that taking the ferry across the lake would be worth it to save us about 4 miles. The kids thought it was pretty cool, and it was A LOT less whining! The Falls were awesome but there were way too many people!

New Projects

So I forgot to take before pictures but at least I took after pics! These are two projects that I have needed to do for the last year but since they were in Colorado I really couldn't get to them.

The first is a dresser that I got from my mom. It was in the worst shape. I think it was made in the 1920s or 1930s and needed a ton of repairs. The drawers were warped and water damaged and the bottom drawer was missing some pieces. We decided that we would keep the outer shell of the dresser and the drawer fronts and replace the actual drawers and back. We also decided to turn the top drawer into a shelf for baskets. I haven't decided what to do with it for sure. I think I will use it as a changing table/dresser for the new baby but I am not sure on the color. I think it will stay in its primer form until we are settled to where ever the next place we go!

The second was a black 80s looking chair we got from our friends. I just stripped and sanded the paint of and applied primer. I think it will be used in the new baby's room too so I haven't decided what color to paint it yet either!
