We're Back!

Hey, y'all.... we finally (I finally) figured out how to get back on this thing. (Well I thought I did.... I still can't get the pictures in the right place.) (still working on it)Can we tell you how much we love this thing. We love reading your writings and seeing the pictures.... it is almost as good as a letter.

Kim we are really glad that you are a quick learner when it comes to sailing. Don't let anyone tell you you aren't.

L - WAHOO.... we love those new big girl panties.... you are so grown up.

It is now time for this week's H&S

:-)

We got to see Dani!!!! and Spend the weekend with Jess and Drew.

We got to see the beautiful Yosemite. - Half Dome, El Capitan, Bridal Vail Falls, Hetch Hetchie, Bass Lake, and Angel's Camp - Home of the Frog Festival. We got to go to a Farmer's Market there - no frogs but a lot of belly dancers!

Had a nice van to carry everyone around in - THANK YOU DANI!!!!

Finished folding Dani's quilt blocks. Now all she has to do is sew them all together.

Ate at the Wawona Restaurant at the south end of Yosemite. It was Jess's B-day dinner - it reminded me of Somewhere in time. (The week before we ate Yak at Jasoh in Ogden - YUMMY)

Our Condos were really nice and comfortable. We got to spend 2 nights in each place. THANKS JESS AND DREW!!!!

Winding roads with beautiful trees in the Sierra Nevadas.

Giant Sequoias.

I am reading (no listening) to the 6th book of the Mitford Series - Highly recommended.

Dad finished Orson Scott Card's new book EMPIRE. He says it is Very good.

After cleaning out the shed we finally got all the junk taken to the dump. AAHH. that feels good.

Sacramento Airports Giant suitcase piles.

:-(

Entryway floor is popping up. Guess the moisture from the new swamp cooler is a little too much for it.

WEEDS

Jess and Dad were sick on our trip.

WEEDS




Yosemite was in a drought. No Yosemite Falls... just Yosemite weeping cliff. Bridal Vail Falls were just a mist in the light.










Winding roads in the Sierra Nevadas - that went on forever!!!
Dani didn't get to come home with us.

Well.... I guess that is enough for now.... I will try and post some pictures.... see if I can figure this out.
Love you all bunches.
Mom and Dad



This is Grma and Grma after the gruelling hike to the Beautiful Navajo Falls.... the falls actually had water!





















Looking the other direction on the bridge you can see how beautiful it is.


V&D's red convertable.... fun ride!














Diane gave Jess a teddy bear dressed like a giraffe for her birthday... so they decided to practice....
