Our 2 week family Vacation

WOW! What a trip, we had a great time. Loved everywhere we went and everything we did. We ended the trip with 4000 miles traveled thru almost 8 states (just missed the corner of nebraska)so I will count it anyway and $$$$$$$$ in gas, food and hotels. The memories we will have, from seeing family we haven't seen in a while and places we have never been it was really great. I tried to put these pictures in the order of where we stopped or what we did first but it didn't quite turn out that way so you get the idea anyway. Starting from the bottom working your way up to this one.

Sister Keller and Elder Keller (my parents) serving a mission on Temple Square in Salt Lake City, Utah. They gave our family a tour of Temple Square. Here they are telling us about the state bird.

This is our family still at Temple square in front of the Christus Statue.

Cameron and Tanner at the end of our vacation going to BYU baseball camp for about 4 days at the baseball field.

Cameron Possing in front of the BYU Baseball staduim


Grandma Peters who lives in Salt Lake City, Utah we stopped to visit her on our way to Temple square. The kids weren't interested in the pictures today.


Grandma Peters, my sister Jaime and Me.

My parents, my sister Jaime's family and my family in front of the Salt Lake Temple from the visitors center.

Grandpa & Grandma showing Cameron and Morgan some interesting church history.

I think this picture is already below in my other entry. CRAZY HORSE

Starting to walk down the Presidential trail it's about a 1/2 mile walk up and down some stairs that take you right below Mt.Rushmore.

Michael, Myself, Dallin, and Morgan. Garrett wanted to take some pictures.



Jewel Cave- very cold

Going up from the caves, almost done with our tour.


This is where we stopped at the Flintstones Camp ground. We didn't go inside but thought it would be cool just to take some pictures. Cameron knew who the flintstones were but the others didn't.

Dallin wouldn't pose when we wanted him to, of course. But when we were ready to leave, we turned around and he was posing like Barney without anyone telling him what to do. So this picture is from the car.

Morgan looses his first tooth on our trip!

Some more pictures of Little Bighorn Battlefield. They call this the Last Stand at Little Big Horn or "Custer's Last Stand". Very interesting story, sad that so many had to die for what, really?



My cute little JUNIOR RANGER! Dallin couldn't leave the store without this hat.

We stopped along our way thru Idaho and saw my 3 sisters that live here. We met and spent sometime at a park had lunch and enjoyed watching the kids play. I got to see my niece for the first time Olivia, Jaime's second daughter.

My 3 sisters, Jennifer in the back left, Jaime to my right, Kim to my left.

Waiting for Old faithful to erupt. Every Hour and 1/2 these days. It was pretty big, bigger then I remembered it being the last time I saw it.

A beautiful waterfall, Dallin and I at Yellowstone National Park.

FIRST of many STOPS for Gas.

Cherry Hill, Utah waterslides and Mini Golf. This is Morgan, Dallin and myself.

Me,and Kim's girls taylor and Kaylee then Jaime's newest that I am holding Olivia.

Garrett and Jace, this is my sister Jennifer's second son.


WOW! This was my first photo being taken, can you tell with the excitment on my face! Usually I am always taking pictures and never in them, but Michael did a good job of getting me in more on this trip.
