Grant Campground

Right now it is really hard to get a camping site, because EVERYONE is headed to the National Parks right now.  We were lucky enough to get two nights at Grant Campground.  Our spot was perfect for us since it was right on the edge of a loop and gave the kids plenty of room the play.  The entire campsite was covered with a blanket of pine needles, and immediately upon seeing our site, the kids went about making trails through the pine needles.  They used the trails to get from tent to tent, to and from the campfire, to and from the table, and the car.  Their favorite game was playing tag on the trails.  

They couldn't find as much firewood here, but one stick that survived the journey was a stick that looks exactly like Jake and the Neverland Pirates' sword!  

Breakfast all bundled up.  

We were really close to Yellowstone Lake, but didn't even go down to the shore until the morning we packed up.  We hardly spent any time at the campsite, which is a shame because the lake shore was such a wonderful place to explore.  

This picture of Daxton kind of sums up our week.  We just moved every minute of every day.  The poor kid had to grab a nap whenever we were in the car.  It was such a perfect week away.
