All Done Camping for the Year

Mike and I took a day trip up north this weekend to close down for the winter.

It was so quiet

and colorful. Most of us don't see these colors camping to often so I had to share.


The weather was beautiful! We were there for only a few hours in the middle of the afternoon and I had to put on a little jacket, and yes Mike was still in shorts, t-shirt and sandals.

Hi Tio David & Tia Chanin

Hi CORN DOG! We just did Skype with David and Chanin this weekend and it was pretty cool, until the computer took a dump.

Alex and David could talk with each other for hours and not say a word. They were both happy making faces at each other and giving high fives! Can't wait to do this with the rest of the out-of-town family!!

Race For A Cure

What a great experience this was! I am so glad we came out to walk with my cousin Kori and her family and friends to support her mom and sister-in-law Michelle, my cousin.

It was hard to stop for a picture when you have tons and tons of people walking in front and behind you. Michelle, Dan, Tia Julie and David got a good one.

Monique's Birthday ~ 1st Party

These birthday girls Monique and Megan are 2nd cousins that are a day apart. My cousin Michelle and her family live in CA so when we heard they were going to be in town we couldn't leave little Megan out! What a great party these girls had.

Getting ready for the party...they are saving their energy!

It really did work, the kids broke it, candy fell out, and someone got to wear a piece of it.
