On our way to Yellowstone we stopped in Idaho at Bear World. I love this little park. It is cool to be able to drive through the bears and wild life and see them up close.

Cody was happy to get out of his car seat and as always, he was climbing and crawling on everything!

We rode the train and the little kiddie rides. I couldn't talk Rod in to participating though..




Two Peas in a Pod.. It was so nice to go with Kevin &
Shar, it made the trip more fun!

The animals in the petting zoo knew best to run when the saw
Cassidy coming!

The baby bears are my favorite.. They were so much fun to watch play!

And my BABY BEARS! So CUTE!!

Once we had eaten lunch, we were on our way again and headed to Yellowstone!

I have only been to Yellowstone once and I was like 8 years old. I was really excited to go!

Rod loves Fishing Bridge it brings back good memories for him.


I love Old Faithful, a trip to Yellowstone isn't complete unless you get to see it..
Cassidy thought it was "AWESOME"

We visited the Grizzly Discovery center in West Yellowstone, and I tell ya it was the coolest! The Grizzlies are massive, you know they are big, then you see one this close and realize they are gigantic!

They rescue problem wolves and bears, it is their last hope before having to destroy them. It is such a neat program. It was my favorite part of our vacation. This bear was my favorite..
Cassidy got to go in the bear cage and they hide food for the bears to come and find, like they would in the wild. They try to minimize the direct contact with humans as much as they can.

Then they let the bears out and they rummage and work for their food!

This is a bear trap, it is made of incredibly heavy duty steel, which was bent up by bears trying to escape.. WOW.. They are such amazing animals..

We hit all of the little hikes along the way.. Everything was so beautiful and fascinating!

Here is Rod and Kevin looking for Bears.. We ended up seeing 2 Grizzlies, 2 Black Bears,
A lot of Buffalo, a Bald Eagle, Elk, Coyote, Mountain Sheep, and Wolves at the discovery center..

Cody was about sick of sitting by the end of each night! He was so good!

We discovered Cody LOVES red licorice.. It was everywhere! The mess was worth keeping him happy though!

We loved the mud pots.. There was mud shooting all over!
Cassidy thought it didn't smell so good! It was so beautiful though!
