Jackson Hole - Part 2

Curtis and I marveled at how much Annabeth changed during our two weeks in Wyoming. This picture was taken on the day she started sitting up. She was using her hands but could sit for a long time.



Exactly one week later, when she happened to be wearing the same outfit, she was sitting with no hands. This is such a fun stage! I'm enjoying our last bit of time before she becomes mobile.



This was Annabeth's first time in a restaurant high chair.



One night after my parents arrived, we had dinner on the deck at Signal Mountain Lodge. After that we walked down to Jackson Lake.











Jackson is embracing his big brother role a little more these days.



This is a picture of one of the cookouts we attended by the river.



Curtis and Annabeth challenged Jackson and his friend in a race.





Annabeth did not enjoy being a track star.



Here's Baby Girl's first time in a playground swing. I did not bring her enough cool-weather clothes, so I frequently resorted to pajamas.



One morning our whole family attended a breakfast cookout up on a mountain. Dad and I and joined the trail riders on horseback while Mom and Curtis brought the kids up in a car. We had hot chocolate, eggs, bacon, and pancakes. It was so much fun.









Jackson and his daddy played hide and seek in the town square. Here's Jackson counting.



Here he is hiding.



A view of the Tetons from near our place.



Mt. Moran might be my favorite.



A deer in the river by our cabin.



The Sleeping Indian. Can you see him?



One day we visited Jenny Lake. You do not want to miss it if you ever visit Jackson Hole.



We took a shuttle boat across the lake to Hidden Falls and Inspiration Point.



Looking up at the mountain from the boat.





Here's what we hiked to see.









We - mainly Jackson - got soaked on the boat ride back. The water was freezing! Jackson has always loved being splashed with cold water (seriously), so he had a great time. People around us were even trying to take pictures of him because he was so funny.



The pictures you are about to see are from The Greatest Day of Jackson's Life.



We went to Snow King and did the alpine slide.





The slide was really fun, but I only did it once because the ski lift to the top of it scared me to death. Curt says it isn't as freaky when there's snow below you. The Moores aren't skiers, so I wouldn't really know.



Then Curtis and I went temporarily insane and let Jackson do the bungee trampoline. You are seeing the highlight of his three-year-old life.



Everyone within a mile heard him squealing.



After that, we had lunch at the Saddle Rock Family Saloon.



The only beer they served was root beer. Oh my word, it was the best ever!



Jackson capped the day off with a horse ride. This is Blizzard, the most chilled out horse known to man. Jackson looked like a baby on top of that big ole animal.



That concludes the Greatest Day of Jackson's Life.

Here's a bad picture of some elk in the valley.



This is our favorite pizza place. No visit is complete without it.



It's our tradition to take a picture on this huge stump before we leave. Right after this, some very sad Joneses got in the car and drove to the airport. Sad, sad, sad.



Thanks for sharing our pictures!

For everyone going to Deeper Still in Orlando this weekend, have an awesome time with Jesus!
