The Lawrence Fox Family Reunion #4

Once again Jenna planned an awesome family camping trip. This year we went to Island Park. We actually stayed in a cabin so you can't really call it camping but it was so perfect and way easier than actually camping with a baby. Josie didn't waste anytime, as soon as Laurel walked in she asked to get her nails painted. 
TJ modeled Papa's swimming suit for us... a couple of times. 
We were all excited when Leann came. She had been called out on a fire but got off early enough to enjoy our company!
Janale brought some fun things to entertain the kids, which they loved.
We spent a few hours in West Yellowstone
We played some games and visited a lot. Laurel showed me how to do No Heat Curls. She looked like a supermodel in the morning and I looked like a got hit by a bus. I probably won't try that again. Trig called Laurel before camping and asked her to bring him a sucker, of course she did and he was thrilled.
Hanging out at Henry's Lake
When it got to hot to fish we enjoyed a few rides on Grandpa Fox's fishing boat. 
I tried to take a family picture but the kids weren't interested, Quincy was asleep in Ashton's arms and then there was TJ.
After I took a picture of the Reno family I told Laurel and Trevor it was their turn. Without any consulting they both automatically stuck their bums out and started acting like pterodactyls. 
Quincy was so good the entire time. She had a few moments but overall she was wonderful, she only cried 70% of the drive so even that was pretty good. 
We tried to swim at Island Park Reservoir, it was mostly a disaster but we still managed to have a good time even if we did look like idiots on hanging out on the boat dock. 
The boys caught some very impressive fish at Henry's lake. A few brave folks took the LONG way home and drove through Yellowstone and Jackson Hole. I was jealous, they sent me a picture but I really want to see Old Faithful with my own eyes... just not bad enough to drive for that long with a screaming baby. One day I will make it there.
