Annual Terry Family Vacation

Since Kyle and I have been married we have taken a yearly vacation with my family. This year, since I was so far a long in my pregnancy, we decided to keep it close and spend the weekend in Denver. We headed up Saturday morning and went straight to Pirate's Cove. This is a water park geared more towards young families. 
Getting to the parking lot and excited to head in!

Jamin was very interested in all the attractions


Getting set up and ready to go in the water!

We headed to the lazy river first to get Jamin used to the water and all the noise and excitement around him

A lot of the loud noises and big crowds scared him. Maybe next year he will enjoy it more

Cousins

Grandpa built a fort for the kids to play in and stay in the shade. 

Hanging out at the giant sand box 

This was Jamin's favorite part


After Pirate's Cove we checked into the Hotel and all took a much needed nap. After that we got ready to head out for dinner at an all time favorite, CASA BONITA!
Waiting in the lobby for everyone

Jamin either loved the escalators or was scared of them lol

This time he wanted Daddy to carry him

The big moment had arrived! Casa Bonita here we come!


Waiting in line to order our food

Still haven't even gone in yet lol...there was too much fun outside! Here everyone is playing in the bubbles



Great action shot of Addy jumping to get a bubble!

We learned our lesson to always bring the stroller. Since we forgot ours we rented one there. Jamin and Addy didn't seem to mind though
The Dive Team!

Aunt Melissa bought Jamin a snake

He was very interested in it...but daddy wasn't, he hates snakes

Hi Honey!


Petting the sting rays 



At the end Grandma wanted to buy all the kids a gift. I wanted Jamin to have this cool hat!

But we let him pick out what he wanted and he got cars and a book!

More bubbles when we were leaving








On our walk back to the car we got out a few of his cars





So excited! lol
Can't wait til our next vacation!

Sun is out...Time to have fun!

I set up a part of our big slip and slide for the boys to have fun with! Mommy, may have went down it a time or two also lol. You can definitely tell a difference in our house when there is warm weather outside! Lots more silliness and fun!  Silliness during lunch...Dylin put this bucket on his head and thought it was the funniest thing ever.  Some pictures of my handsome man....I love you so much Jamin!

Daddy's Little Helper and Ice Festival

Friday Jamin and I went to visit Kyle and work and took a few pictures! Jamin loved seeing the big trucks and playing in his daddy's office.  Daddy's little Helper  Writing down important jobs to go look at  We think he's gonna be a lefty!  Taking over the business This weekend we also went to Cripple Creek for the Ice Festival! We enjoyed seeing the ice scultures and going down the ics slide!  My attempt to make peanutbutter-banana-honey sandwiches on the way home...Kyle didn't think I did very well because half of his banana was on the floor of the car :)

Road Trip Part 5

Monday morning rolled around and we decided to make our way from Bozeman down to the West Yellowstone Entrance. The drive was amazingly gorgeous!  Just driving in Harvey!  We made it to West Yellowstone but were turned away from two different RV parks because of the amount of kids we had with us. This was the first time I have ever felt looked down upon and discriminated against. I literally had one man ripped a piece of paper out of my hands because he didn't even want to consider letting that many people stay in his park. I explained to him that they are all young and well behaved kids but apparently he has had way too many bad experiences with kids. We didn't let it get us down though. We finally found one that didn't have any concerns letting 4 adults come in with 5 kiddos. The place was actually brand new and the closest RV park to the west Yellowstone entrance so we really lucked out!!! After we got checked in we decided to go into the park ...
