Mt. Rushmore

 We were so excited to take a roatrip to South Dakota. We put on 1600 miles in the car, spent a lot of time together. Laughed, ate, looked at beautiful scenery and played hard. It was a great trip!

 We first drove through Grand Teton National park and Yellowstone. It was fun to stop and see all of the sites there. It is some of the most beautiful lakes and mountains in the world.

 We ended up in Cody where we went to the mural church, saw lots of deer, took a break at a park and drove more to Gillett, Wy. We were so glad to get to the hotel that night and a pool. It was a great day of driving.

 The next morning we went to Devil's Tower. We loved the prairie dog town and the hike in the rain around the mountain. It really was a cool site to see.

 After a quick tour or Sturgis, we were excited to once again get to our hotel. It had a waterpark and we spend a lot of time there that day.

 The next morning we went to the Jewel Cave.

It was a awesome trip down 300 ft in the ground. It was really fun walking around it. Kinley fell asleep so my mom got quite the workout holding her up all of those stairs.

 We finally made it to Mt. Rushmore. We loved seeing it. It is so impressive to see what they created. We loved the hike around, the flags and especially the ice cream.

 We walked around Keystone that afternoon and then went to Chucky cheese for dinner. Chloe decided we should eat there everynight.

 We spent lots more time in the waterpark, went back to Mt. Rushmore, rode up a tram to top of a hill that overlooked the mountain. The best part was the alpine slide down.

We then drove home through Montana and stopped at the Battle of Little Bighorn which is Custards last stand. We were amazed at how great the kids were, how well they rode in the car and how well they got a long. It was a great time.
