This year we decided to start the tradition on my side of the family and do a Gardner Family Getaway. We went up to the Grand Tetons and had 7 fun filled days of camping. It was so beautiful up there and we saw lots of wild life. We missed Clay & Cheryl and kids, Barbs & Shawn and kids and Tiffanie. We have already booked and are planning the Gardner Getaway for next year, so we hope everyone can make it! Here are some of the highlights from this trip...
*Camping by the Jenny Lake
*Spending most of our days catching tiny fish, floating on tubes, reading, eating, canoeing, swimming at the lake.
*Hiking to the waterfalls and having to carry a sleeping Claire all the way back
*Grandma's crafts
*Derric, Hunt & Jax stealing and hiding my book all week long...I really wasn't reading that much
*Making lots of trips to the grocery store and showers at the bottom of camp
*Mosqitos
*Eating at Jackson Resort diner
*Going to Jackson Hole to see the new Harry Potter movie
*Driving thru Yellowstone for 2 days to see all the famous sites
*Mosqitos
*Having a retirement ceremony for my blanket after 30 wonderful years(Yes that is right, I burned my blanket!)
*Seeing buffalo, bears, elk, bald eagles, wolves, marmotts and more buffalo
*Geochaching
*Mosqitos
*The annual frisbee football game(Joe's team against Derric's team)
*Joe, Derric, Hunter & Jax staying up late around the campfire and keeping us all awake with their laughter

Sorry to hear about your blanket...but Cass...it was time. I admire you for "giving it up". Looks like you guys had tons of FUN...and LOTS of family time this summer. But that's what it's all about huh!
