For Mylissa's birthday we went into West Yellowstone. Shantelle, Robby, and Aliyah went to the bear and wolf exhibit. The rest of us wandered around looking for shirts for the kids. It's a tradition that grandma and grandpa buy all the kids Yellowstone t-shirts. It was funny to see how the kids are starting to have an opinion about what shirt they want. They all picked out very different shirts. But they were all very excited with their new shirts. Thanks grandpa and grandma! Then we went and had an ice cream treat at Dairy Queen. Unfortunately it wasn't very good. We told Dad that next time we'll stick with all the ice cream that he buys.
On the way home, Shantelle and Robby saw this moose. She has the best luck. She'll say "I want to see a moose." Then bam, there's a moose. She took a picture so she would have proof. We're just jealous. Good eyes Shan!
When we got home, everyone but Mylissa, Marilyn, Mom, Rob, Julie,and Aliyah, went on a four-wheel ride up canyon 42. We call it the Sound of Music canyon because the hills look like the hills in the first part of the movie. We tried to go up it last week but there was too much snow. So tonight we only had one part that had a lot of snow. Dad and Shantelle went around the snow but Robby loved driving the four-wheeler in it. Then Shantelle, Maddy, Chase, and Bridger played in the snow. They looked like penguins sliding on their bellies. I rode my bike till the snow part. It's a really hard trail but I love going back down. The view from the top is so beautiful!!! Normally there is one part on the trail that is filled with wild flowers but this year there is not one flower yet.
Tonight for Mylissa's birthday cake, Rob made a peach cobbler and then a Dutch apple streusel dessert. It was so yummy!!! Then Mylissa opened her presents. Mom and I made her baby blankets. Shantelle made her a really cute happy birthday banner. Marilyn teased us that we have turned int domestic divas. Poor Mylissa, she has felt so crappy. We're all hoping that next year's birthday will be so much better.
