We had the most AMAZING trip to Wyoming over Labor Day. It was one of my very favorite trips ever. My dear friend Julia ( a loyal blog reader... Hey, Julia!) got married at the ranch where she and the groom work. Julia and I were roomies at Kappa and some of my very favorite (and funniest and weirdest!) college memories involve her. We were so so so excited to be able to go up for her wedding!
Molly was a champ flyer again-it was a breeze. But, poor baby takes after me when i was a kid and gets carsick very easily. So the long, windy mountain roads were not good for her tummy:(
Julia's wedding festivities were so much fun! The setting could not have been more beautiful. Molly was just chomping because this was her 1st wedding. She loved Julia and "Prince" Adam. She still calls him Prince Adam... she associates weddings with Cinderella and Ariel! For the 1st 2 nights we stayed in Dubious, Wy. We all shared a room which Molly LOVEd and I hated- ha! I just wake to every little sound she makes. She was so sad to leave that room! The next 3 nights we stayed in Teton Village- right near Jackson Hole. It was a condo so M got her own room. It had 2 twin beds in it and now Molly wants 2 twin beds for slumber parties! It really was the best time- thanks for having us, Julia! We miss you already!
Molly loved the open spaces. She is such a city girl- she needs times like this!
Handsome hubby. Kyle loves outdoorsy things so this was right up his alley!
Molly and the beautiful bride!
Molly wasted no time tracking the Prince down and asking for a dance.
Look at the background!
Me and the Molls

Do not adjust your monitors! Molly is wearing blue jeans. Kyle got these for her a few weeks ago to ride a 4 wheeler in at the deer camp. They are not for Dallas... but were perfectly adorable for the trip!
Getting ready to go fishing with Daddy
Look at the setting we got to fly fish in!
I took a stab at it. Too hard. Too quiet.
The gorgeous new hubby and wife!
You know mOlly needed her own photo session after watching Julia take some bridal portraits. The girl cannot wait to get married!
Our first night in Teton Village, we stumbled upon an awesome concert- JJ Gray and Mofro. It was so fun- kids, dogs, college kids, all ages hanging outside- so fun!
Kyle and Molly did the Alpine Slide- you take a ski lift to the top of a mountain and then get in a little luge-style car and ride down. I HATE chair lifts and was sick to my stomach until I saw they made it to the top. TRYING not to pass my
list of fears on to Molly!
Zooming down!
We rented a kid pack and had the best hike! You take a boat across a lake and then hike UP.
One of only a handful of family photos! So happy to have this. Molly's highlight of the hike was collected rocks for her collection Just what I needed hiking... heavy rocks in my bag!
It was OS hard to come back to Dallas' size, traffic and HUMIDITY after such a relaxing, peaceful trip! But- we are back in the routine now and doing great. We will definitely be going back to Wyoming- hopefully sooner rather than later!
