Driggs

Driggs is my parents' version of Hebgen Lake in that it is a place they bought with the primary purpose of having a gathering spot where family memories can be created. We get to spend as much time as we want up there and there is a ton to do in both the summer and the winter.

George honestly had the time of his life in Driggs. He loved wandering around the property, riding the four-wheelers, jumping on the trampoline, and being with the dogs and his cousins. On our last day Lara and I took our kids (minus Scarlet and Charlie) on a 20 mile four-wheeler ride and during a break George touched the exhaust on the back of our four-wheeler and burned himself. It wasn't anything serious but he was understandably sad for a little bit. The ride Lara led us on was fun with beautiful views of the Tetons and we had a great time. I think George's favorite activity was jumping on the trampoline and I literally had to drag him off of it each night. He would jump regardless of whether or not anyone was out there with him but his favorite times were when Zane would jump with him and they would wrestle. They got a little wild one night and George flew off of the trampoline. It was scary but George was fine and actually got really mad when Lara wouldn't let him just get right back on.



I really do feel blessed that my parents have been able to provide this wonderful gathering spot where we can create memories together as a family.

Oh that was so fun. I can't wait until next time. We really had the time of our lives. Remember how Green Canyon smelled like poo? hahahaha. Cousin/sister time totally rocks. Mom and Dad, thank you so much for providing us a place to cause trouble and make lastly memories.

I can't get over how grown up George looks...it's hard to believe that he's only two! He and Zane have got two be two of the cutest boys I've ever seen!

Very cute! It is so great that you have that wonderful place to go to and make memories. I love it! Poor George and all of his accidents. I'm glad that he wasn't hurt badly though.

getting burned and flying off the trampoline. What'll be George's next adventure. I hope his burn's okay now.
I've only been to Driggs twice but I already love it. I so want to go on all these hikes and adventures up there.
All your pics really make me wish I were part of your family. Maybe Ty could marry Darc than we'd be family. Did he ever call her?
