weekend away, just 2 of us

My Mom and Dad came to Montana for some family reunions in August. We met them in Billings, and they took the boys for the week, to Sheridan. Jason and I went to a Marriage Enrichment weekend at Big Sky. 

The drive itself was heavenly.
And since we were so close, on Friday, we went for a drive to Yellowstone. 
When we got to our class, there was the sweetest surprise.
We have the best friends. 
Breakfast the next morning, was less than satisfying, but we made the most of it. 
And supplemented our sanity with this. 
After a long day of class, we got to take in the area. 
Then we had another 1/2 day of classes, then decided we wanted to see more of Yellowstone.
Neither of us have been there since we were very young, so it was great to go back.
(we were the "selfie" king and queen at Yellowstone) 
Unfortunately, the park was on fire. A lot of the turnouts were closed, and the smoke was terrible. 
Jason is a terrible "selfie" partner. Haha. 
We did get to see some animals though. 
This view was breathtaking. Mostly because I'm terrified of heights. 
This was the view looking back from the road.  
After a very long day of driving, we made it home. 
We definitely need more weekends like this.
Thanks so much to my parents for making it happen.
