Mt. Rushmore Vacation

Our first vacation of the summer began on Saturday morning. We made the 7 hour drive up to South Dakota to see Mt. Rushmore and everything else there is to see. We got to our cabin/house early enough that we decided to head over to Mt Rushmore that night to see the nightly lighting ceremony. It was beautiful! It really made us realize that those 4 presidents had a huge impact on our country. On the way we drove by Crazy Horse but decided to not pay the admission fee because we could see it from the road. We spent the next 2 days touring the sights and enjoying our cabin in the woods. It was really a great trip with little fighting amongst the kids.


This is the best shot I could get of Crazy Horse. They are not done with it so basically only his face is done.



The sun was directly to the left of the faces which didn't make for very good pictures, and Ashton was in a "Mood" and refused to look at the camera.
