Memorial Day Trip

Emma lost her first tooth last night. It needed a little help from Daddy but came out pretty easily. (Thank goodness he's a professional). She is growing up so fast.







For Memorial Day weekend we decided to go to Rapid City and Mount Rushmore. My parents met us there and we had a great time. On the way there we stopped at Jewel Cave and had a tour. Emma is going through a concrete square that you have to be able to fit through to go on the spelunking tour. We saw a lady try to go through it and she declared that it felt just like a mammogram.

The cave walls

The next day we went to bear country where you drive through a park filled with wolves, mountain lions, rams and, of course, bears. Brooklyn was enthralled and spent the whole time grunting and pointing. It was neat because the bears came right up to your car.

We thought it was so fun to see this bear in the tree relaxing.

After this day my camera ran out of battery, of course. When my mom sends me her pics I will post some of the water park, reptile land, and the big finale, Mount Rushmore.
