Once a month ( third Thursdays) our school does Mission Mornings. We have high school students that want to serve in our community. We are reaching out to non profits and churches in Hartwell, Ga who are in need of some helping hands. Please call us at 706-377-3856 if you know of a need or have needs we might possibly be able to help with. This is mission project, so no payment is expected.

Today was a sleep in kind of day. We headed out at 10:30 this morning and drove to Victor, Idaho for the night! We got a few glimpses of the Tetons❤️ We found the cutest ice cream shop to sit around and enjoy talking and feasting on the best ice cream❤️ Then we headed to the cutest little cabin and play area❤️ The kids have had fun, but are tired. Lights out at 10, so I’m signing out. Enjoy the pictures…

Woowee…. What a day! Today we explored waterfalls, saw bubbling mud, hunted Buffalo, and insanely walked!! During our drive, we saw bisons, prong horns (antelopes), mule deers, otters, 2 elk, magpies, ravens, cranes, and Canadian geese. And… these kids are still going!! I have no idea how long we drove- I just know that we left at 7:30 and returned at 7:30😂😂😂 We are determined to see the entire park!!!
On trips like this, it is so easy to know that we have a creator that is an amazing artist and cares about every detail of His creation- that includes you❤️❤️❤️
By the way, the kids are being awesome and having so much fun!! It has been so fun watching them get excited about what they are seeing❤️We are so blessed to be able to explore our beautiful country!! Until tomorrow…

What a day!!!! We started out at 7:15 am and headed to the geyser basin. Woowee… we stopped at McDonalds in a sweet little town called West Yellowstone for a quick potty break before we went in Yellowstone Park. We left there and headed inside the park toward Old Faithful Geyser for our first adventure!! When we arrived, we met my sister ( Christy ) and her hubby ( Don) to share the fun with!! The Inn there was breathtakingly beautiful!!! After a tour of the inn and a quick visit to the gift shop, we headed to the visitor’s center. It was very informative and interactive!! At 11:30 am we walked out to the geysers to watch them erupt…. And what a show we had!!!Beehive geyser erupted and it was spectacular!! 10 minutes after it finished, Old Faithful erupted… it was beautiful… rainbow and all!! We walked for a bit then headed back to the car to go to Grand Prismatic! There we ate lunch and explored. Pictures and videos are not enough to show you!! It was incredible !!Just WOW!! From here, we headed out of the park to find an air mattress! 😅😅😅 We got a golden nugget and were able to go to the GRIZZLY BEAR AND WOLF MUSEUM… I was so excited to see a grizzly bear😂😂😂 We went back to West Yellowstone and did a little shopping❤️ We returned home, ate lasagna, sat around the fire pit, and ended with a nice game of Monopoly ❤️
Whew… what a day!! We have an early morning again, so it’s bedtime❤️😅❤️ Enjoy the pics!

Day 1 was all about settling in… what a beautiful place!! We are staying at an Air BNB that Karrie and Justin Old own in Ennis, Montana. This area is just breathtaking and the house is just amazing!!!! I was driving today, so I solicited the help of my co-pilot to take videos and pics- otherwise I would not have any. The pictures are amazing, but just cannot truly show the beauty of this place❤️

Tomorrow we venture to Old Faithful❤️ we can’t wait!!
