Vacationing...

So while we were home in Visalia we went to a condo at Bass Lake. It was a ton of fun playing in the snow and making a trip to Yosemite National Park while we were there. It was fun to hang out with my family and get away with them. I think it was a much needed break for everyone. Yosemite is amazingly beautiful... if you've never been I definitely recommend it!

Kelan has some really pretty pink shoes on... we forgot to bring our snow stuff. Ya' gotta do what ya' gotta do. The funny thing is he absolutely loved them, he couldn't keep his eyes off them.
Kelan pushing Grandpa and Mikey. Well at least he was trying, they didn't get very far.

Mikey's not so sure about this snow stuff.

Mike and cute little Brayden. He loved the snow.

Our sweet snowman that we revived from the ground. Mikey kept wanting to knock it down, I am surprised we had enough time to take a picture.

Beautiful view of Yosemite.

Kelan just woke up from his nap on the ride up. We were very grateful he did because he gets very car sick on windy road trips. There was no throwing up on this trip, thank goodness!

Our hike to the lower falls.

Kelan and William hitching a ride from Dad and Grandpa.

We finally made it to the lower falls. The upper falls were closed for the winter. Thank goodness because I didn't bring the right shoes for this kind of activity. It was supper slick on the hike up.

One of our view stops along the way. It was an amazing view.

Mikey trying to hold the boys down for the picture. They didn't appreciate it, he thought he was helping.

Were just hanging out with John Muir at the visitor center.

Weekend Fun...

So we found the best thing ever in Visalia while we were home. It is called Boingo... the kids loved it. The best part is they play and play until they are ready to crash on the car ride home. It is great because in the winter who wants to go out and play in the cold. We definitely need one of these in Idaho.


Kelan going down the big slide... he loved it. It was the funniest thing... he would climb up and then jump right off the top of the slide, no fear.

Mikey climbing the rock wall...
