Thermopolis!

We traveled over the pass to Thermopolis one Saturday. It is the home of the "World's Largest Hot Springs". The kids had a blast. Michael did too. I could do without the smell, but it was fun to see the kids enjoying the time. It is really cool to go to the outdoor pool when there is snow on the ground and enjoy the naturally warm water. Here are a couple videos of the kids coming down the slide.





Then we went over to the playground, ate a little lunch and then the kids played on the equipment. Annisia loves to slide and is quite fearless. Jonathan discovered the really cool spiral slide thing.


Annisia sporting her "coy" look. Silly girl!
Then we went on a little walk, but Annisia was so tired by then (it was about 3:30pm and she still hadn't had a nap), she didn't want to walk anymore. So I carried her back to the car and Michael and Jonathan walked to the bridge in the top photo. Some lady was kind enough to take their photo. I love it! It's a very sweet Daddy & Son photo, isn't it?!
When we got home, we had pizza, baths, and books. Have any of you read the "Magic School Bus" books? They are fun; Jonathan loves them.

Thanks for the update! It is always nice to step away from the daily home life, and enjoy quiet moments with family!
