These Are The Days - Father's Day at Independence Rock



Mike had a request for Father's Day.
He wanted us all to go to Independence Rock.
So we did.
Sam came along with us and
Maria and Eric and girls followed behind
We were missing Ben and Sara.

Mike and Elise greeted with a snuggle.

We weren't short on dogs!
This was the first time for Bode to meet our new Granddog, Atomic Betty Sprinkles (Betty).
He liked her.

Maria and the girls and dogs partway up Independence Rock
We sent the guys on up while we relaxed in the shade.

The nearby creek was a hit.
Water and kids just go together!

Like I said...


It was a hot day.
The dogs were so happy to cool down.

Bumblebee kept rubbing her face in the mud.
Yes, Bode is urinating in the creek.

Elise didn't want to leave.
Bode is still urinating.

Our daughter was mistaken for a professional model this week-end.
Can you see why?

The scenery on the way home was lovely, very Wyoming.

Sam and Bode had a little trouble getting comfortable in the back seat.
I'm kind of afraid Sam will be mad at me for using this photo,
but I couldn't help myself.
He's really easy going.
He'll forgive me.
Pretty sure.

~Have a lovely day!

Lovely, enjoyed all the beauties and critters. Sam is sure patient with Bodie. Cordy's hair is getting so long and still curly. :) She is going to look like a model too, when she grows up. Thanks for sharing.

I love the pictures you took of the view! I am saving up some money so I will be able to travel and see the States. It will be so much fun, I am sure of it.

Well, when you do travel, don't miss Yellowstone Park! It is beautiful but also very, very weird and interesting! Parts of it feel like a different planet!

Sue said...

Sam is a very patient person. We all need to get up their again soon!

Mom said...

Oh yes we did!
