Kennedy Meadows

Our family took a two day trip to Kennedy Meadows in the Stanislaus Nataional Forest. This small cabin was our home.
We really had a fun time together.  The boys did some fishing and we all went on a horseback ride through some
incredibly beautiful country. Fortunately for me, there is a
small restaurant there so cooking wasn't on my list of things to do.  We took ingredients to make fish tacos but the fish were not eager to join our table. Dear Grandbaby rode around on her Daddy's back and took in the sights from a cozy resting spot. Precious Sons skipped stones in the creek.  They are so dear to watch, always laughing and enjoying each other.  At one point they were knee deep in the freezing cold water trying to build a dam. Darling Daughter and I watched and wonder why one must always be building something. While the kids filled out forms to ride horses, Darling Husband cared for grandbaby.  They always find something to do together. Papa decided to weight Grandbaby on the feed scale. She now weighs 16 lbs.  She is crawling and really starting to get into things. The fishing trip, though unsuccessful, was great fun.  Dear Son, fell into the water and nearly froze.

Dear Friend and Me

I still can't believe that dear friend and I got to spend time in Paris just a few short weeks ago.  People always ask us if we are sisters, to which we both always say no and why do you ask.  After looking at this picture of us, we now understand why the questions is always asked.
