A little day trip

I REALLY wanted to do something fun with Kami before she headed off to college.  Nothing was working out so that we could, though.  Finally Kami and Caden quit their summer jobs a week before school (well, Caden just quit one of them) and we decided to fit something in.  Shawn still had to work every day and Kami still had A LOT to do to get ready for college and that ended up taking more time than we thought.  She and Caden fit in several hikes.  Then Shawn had the idea to take a day trip and just take Kami and Caden.  Maddie had a soccer game that same day and we had been trying to work around that... we ended up getting Shawn's parents to watch the kids and get Maddie to her game.  We felt bad missing it, but it worked out well, and Jim and Marilyn brought the kids home before bed time and Maddie took over from there.

We went to the Lewis and Clark Caverns over in Montana and then to the Play Mill Theater in West Yellowstone that evening.

Scenery from the caves:


Walking up to the cave - I can't believe how tall Caden is, he makes Shawn look short these days.... and he's not!:


Waiting for the tour to start with some of my favorites:


There were lots of cool stalactites and stalagmites, but my phone generally won't take pics in the dark.  I'll have to add some of Caden's one of these days, because he got some great shots.




We love stuff like this; it was really cool!!

At the Play Mill theater later that evening.  Back row seats, haha:)  They were playing Mary Poppins, and we got home really late! Fun day with great company!!:
