Always aware of the animals

While saying our family prayer last night Luke was glossing over the beginning like always.  He goes right into the thank you for Dora and Diego and please bless Buzz (you know the important stuff)  But we have been trying to get him to start out right so Bryan promted him... "Say Dear Heavenly Father..."  So Luke goes on to say "Heavenly Father of the deers"  I didn't hear anything after that cause I was irreverently laughing.  That was too cute for me, too late at night.

Mountains and Bays

The past couple of weeks have been busy and fun, fun, fun (why has Luke stopped saying that, it was one of his best quotes,  now he says:  "Is this fun?"  we can be cleaning or swimming "Is this fun?")

We did our annual sibling camping trip .  We have a special spot we go to every year that you have to ford a river with all your gear to get to.  The family just keeps growing this year we had four tents!

Bryan shooing the cows out of our campsite.  Luke thought this was the coolest thing.

I guess I didn't really get any good group shots.  But here are a couple of nephews and one of my brothers Owen. 


Last week we head to San Francisco to visit my Grandpa and Grandma and Aunt.  We had a great time.  We drove with my parents and managed to make the 12 hour drive with 4 adults and a child in one car.

Bry and I slipped into the city for a day trip, here we are at Fisherman's Warf

We went to Muir Woods Redwood forest.  Yes I am in a parka while everyone else is wearing shorts and light jackets.
