Around the Hotel Terra In Jackson Hole

Remember this letter to daddy last year while my husband was at his company's Annual Mtg? Well daddy made sure that we all got to go with him this year and make it so that the kids wouldn't miss him. Isn't he the best daddy ever! So needless to say we tagged along up to Jackson Hole and Yellowstone and enjoyed the benefits of tagging along. Granted not all things were provided but a place to sleep and a chance to get away and see something new was. So we gladly and gratefully accepted such a trip. I will need to break up these posts into categories since there are so many pictures and well I want to do this trip justice. So we begin with around the Hotel.

Here is the view as you drive into Teton Village where the hotel is.

This was what you saw as you first entered the lobby of the Hotel. I loved it!
Don't you love that they always provide paper and pens at the hotel? Then if you're lucky it will have a picture watermarked onto it. Then if you are even luckier your daughter will use her artistic abilities and draw faces on said watermark. She says this one was Pop Pop.
She said this one was her.
OK note to all Hotels. From now on you are all required to have a pool like this one. Please included the jets on the side with a seat for parents to sit on and keep heated. Make sure that it is large enough that the kids can swim and have fun while parents can feel like they get a massage while enjoying the jets. Really my kids and I loved this pool. My son enjoyed it so much he would fall asleep while laying back on the headrest of his life jacket. So I held him and my daughter played with the other kids that came with their dad to Annual Mtg.
This is right before he fell asleep. I tried to get out with him and he would wake up. So instead I enjoyed sitting at a jet and he enjoyed the warm water and being cuddled by mommy.
Just in case you think that this was all play for the family. Here are some pictures I took of my husbands meeting. This is his boss starting the meeting.
My husband is in this picture I promise. Ten points if you can spot him though. Here's a hint all you see is his head and back.
Isn't this great giant green cotton balls to clean the moose's antlers. Really I thought this was a nice touch to the room.
Here are the rock hard beds. Did I mention this is an Eco-friendly Hotel and totally organic. What they fail to mention in the brochure is they made these beds from some rock they found in the mountains. It truly was an earthy experience. Seriously they were your typical bed just a very stiff mattress. The common complaint among those there for the meeting. At least they had a heated jetted pool for you to get rid of the morning aches. OK all better. :)
They had a very fun playground for the kiddos to play at. My kids also loved coming here to play.
The grounds on the Hotel/Village were stunning. They had flowers, a pond, fire pits, and little stream, and lots of grass to run around on. And lots of photo opts for what I consider the cutest kids in the world.
They also had shops galore just there for you to shop at and waste your touring dollars. Here we found an ice cream shop and the kids enjoyed their ice cream.
