Teton Adventure

My amazing sister Christy put in for permits almost a year ago to paddle and camp in Leigh Lake at Grand Teton National Park for 2 nights. I have always planned to go, but I had not planned to be in my third trimester of pregnancy! Jokes on me:) However we had such an amazing time, it really was some of the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen. 


This was the portage to Leigh Lake after canoeing over String Lake





This was the view from our campsite! We had white sand beaches, beautiful shallow blue water and the most amazing mountain view!










Here was Cora and my little tent:)





This was the morning we paddled out

Hebgen Lake

Keeping in fashion with our Packard summer adventures, we got to spend a week up at Hebgen Lake in Montana! Weston's cousins, Will and Ashley, came up from Idaho to spend a day with their kids. They made fast friends with Cora:)



Boating was just perfect on this serene lake




We even did a bit of sightseeing in Yellowstone on Sunday






Bear Lake

We went up to the Lindquist Family cabin along the beautiful Bear Lake! Cora just loved being in the water, being on the paddle board and ridding on the lawn mower with her Uncle Coco:)










Sweet Forth of July Visit

As it turns out, being away from your husband for months on end is just not easy... 
We had been fortunate to be able to go and visit Weston every month, but for the whole month of June, this was about as much as we were able to see Weston...


Thank goodness for facetime:) 
But he was able to come up and spend the 4th of July weekend with us and his family!! 










Weekly Ogden Swim Dates

This summer we have started going to Grandma and Grandpa Lindquist in Ogden for weekly swim dates!! We are often joined by Weston's cousins and their kids or Cora's very own Aunt Ally.


Their backyard has the most incredible view of Ben Lomond Peak
