Jackson Hole 2019

The extended Gochnour family has been doing Jackson Hole every summer for almost 60 years! It’s the greatest tradition that I feel so lucky to be a part of. I have already been on the trip five times but this time was my very favorite since Penelope finally joined us!

We were able to do almost everything with everyone besides run the river. When everyone went to do that, we had the best day as a family and went swimming in the lake, ate the famous Signal Mountain nachos, and had ice cream by the water. Seriously one of my absolutely favorite days as a family that I never want to forget!

We always do the Jenny Lake hike every year and Penelope did great during it! She refused to keep her hat on (hence why it’s on me) but loved being her new hiking backpack!

That SMILE! Hahaha I’m dead. Just a gal who loves hiking…

Also, I don’t know why, but her little shoes made me so happy the entire trip. Why are baby shoes the cutest things in the world?!

If you’ve never been to Jackson Lake, you need to add it to your bucket list! It is seriously the most gorgeous lake right at the base of the Tetons! It’s a view that will seriously take your breath away.

And of course, we continued our morning walk tradition (this time with a LOT more mosquitos accompanying us!) and loved walking in all of the gorgeous trees up to Signal Mountain.

I’ll take a $6 croissant, please. Everything is more expensive in Jackson! 😅

And on the last night, Penelope fell asleep in my arms! This hasn’t happened since April 19th (to be exact) and seriously made me want to cry. I want her to stay this little forever and ever!

Until next year, Jackson!
