Yellowstone Again


The kids were so excited to wear their new Yellowstone shirts today. So this morning everyone but me, Mom and Mylissa, went into Yellowstone. They loaded up two cars and headed into Yellowstone. It was so nice to have a quiet day. After everyone left, we just sat on the couches and talked for a couple of hours. Mylissa gets really dizzy and short of breath when she gets up and walks around. So we kept things really quiet for her. Rob and Mylissa decided this morning that they would head home tonight instead of tomorrow. Mylissa talked to her doctor's office and they want to evaluate her in the morning. She has been through so much. I think it's so frustrating for her because her mind wants her to be strong and healthy and her body just doesn't cooperate.


The kids came home so excited because they saw 3 bears. At one of the stops, there was a black bear and a cinnamon bear by each other. Marilyn wondered if one was the mother and the other one was an older cub. Aliyah loved seeing all the animals. They saw lots of elk at Mammoth. Bridger was asleep when they got to Mammoth. So Dad and Marilyn tried to wake him up. Marilyn said that when we woke up the only person he wanted was Chase. He went and snuggled with Chase. Marilyn said it was so sweet. The wind was really bad today. Dad said that they had 6 different traffic jams related to trees being blown over and blocking off the road. I went on a bike ride up Willow Creek Canyon. It's the first time I've ever had to pedal hard to get downhill. That's how hard the wind was blowing.
Everyone came home around 6:00. So we ate a quick dinner before they left. Mom had put a lasagna in the oven. Rob suggested that Mylissa have a blessing before they left. So Dad, Rob, and Robby gave Mylissa a blessing. Dad gave the blessing and it was really tender. The spirit was very strong. We're so grateful for the gospel in our lives and that we can call upon our Heavenly Father's help at any time.
After the W's left,we had a Wii party. We played the game "Just Dance." Even Marilyn danced to Michael Jackson. It was hysterical seeing us dance. Bridger was even dancing. Then we played Beatles rock band. We took turns rotating the instruments. It cracks me up listening to Bridger sing his little heart out. He loves it. Mom even got Dad singing. It was a fun night.
