Yellowstone!!

So since we didn't get to do much last week on our anniversary, Tyler and I decided to drive down to Yellowstone for the day. It was a beautiful sunshiney day and there were about 2 feet of snow. It was CRAZY!! haha... Anyway, we saw some pretty cool things, some Elk,some more elk,

, Old Faithful,

and tonz of buffalo.While on one of the nature paths we came across one right next to the boardwalk which proceded to run at me at full speed and try to gorge me. Ok, so maybe I'm exaggerating a little bit, but it really did scare me and I had to walk away very quickly to avoid sure death. We saw a bald eagle on the way out, but what we did not see was any bears or wolves (and here I was thinking that there was a problem with wolf overpopulation...). So to be able to see some we went to a bear and wolf habitat to see some in cages, though I think Tyler enjoyed more taking pictures of the poor dead stuffed bears.
But the party came afterward when we got to sit in a real bear trap (where I, naturally, did "Bear Face"),
try on some sweet duds,

and end the day sitting on a huge stuffed bear bench. Thanks for the adventure Tyler, I had a blast and I love you! Cheers!
