We're Going to Jackson

We are planning on going back to Jackson Hole every year to celebrate our anniversary, and this year Adam's parents came with us. We had a great time visiting spots from the wedding, and Greta loved her first trip to the Tetons. She even had her first giggle there.

Our first stop: Jackson Lake Lodge

They showed 2 of our wedding pictures on their advertisement for Coulior. Where is the compensation??!?

Buffalo!

We are planning on taking a picture here on every visit

Greta's first hike

If it looks like she doesn't like her setup, thats because she didn't. We didn't make it too far before turning back.

Three Months Old!

It has been a very busy month for Greta. She finally got to meet her cousins, twice! We already posted the pictures of the Tucson visit, and also of our trip to Coeur d'Alene. Here are some stats and other random pictures:


Likes:
- Smiling and babbling (but only talks when she is on her back)
- Baths (she takes them very seriously though - kicking and slapping with a purpose and without a smile)
- Peak-a-Boo
- Daily walks
- Blowing out her diaper (which mommy dislikes very much)
- Playing with her hands


Dislikes:
- Getting out of the bath
- Excessive heat
- Toys. its not that she dislikes them, she just doesn't play with them yet

Coeur d'Alene

My family spent a week hanging out on beautiful lake Coeur d'Alene in Idaho. It was great to have so much cousin time. Such a special week. Here are some highlights:

We decided to have the inaugural family olympic games. Nonny and Boompa were team USA, Aunt Debbie, Uncle Adam, Lincoln and Kason were team Italy, Adam, Greta and I were team Germany, and Darcy and Easton were team Mexico. We didn't get to play as many games as we thought we would, but with second place in chicken feet, and domination in both Yahtzee and Bocce Ball, team Germany came out with the win. Nummer eins!

Sporting our team jackets

Darcy, Adam and I rode the Route of the Hiawatha bike trail one day. It was a gorgeous 17 mile trek through tunnels and over trestles that used to be part of the Milwaukee Railroad. We had a blast!

We celebrated July 4th in style. Aunt Darcy bought the cousins all matching onsies and shirts. We had so much fun dressing them up and taking pictures.

Greta was seriously ready to party

Our favorite part of the trip was all of the fun boat rides. We were able to tour the lake, go water skiing and watched the July 4th fireworks from the town of Coeur d'Alene (and later from John Elway's place just a few houses over). 

Making sure greta was safe, shaded and warm. Lincoln loved the boat rides too. "Fast again!"

Thanks to Nonny and Boompa for coordinating such a wonderful trip. We all had so much fun and can't wait for the next family get together!
