ICE CREAM AT GRAMMIE AND GRAMPIE'S HOUSE!

Rachel's first ice cream cone...being assisted by Grampie! I think she liked it, don't you!

Eden eating her ice cream...with a little on her nose!

Asher enjoying his ice cream, but trying really hard not to get any on his hands!

I would say by the looks of her face...she enjoyed hers the best of all of them!!

Camping with Eden

We took Eden to Lake Isabella camping, and she had a ball. We had a fun time at camp and at the Lake. She made friends with the kids that were camping behind us and loved playing in the water!

Doesn't that look like a happy face! She was goofing off for the camera like Eden does. This was taken at our camp site after swimming!

This was our camp site...we had a really nice, big site. Grampie was getting ready to cook us some hot dogs for supper and boy were they good! :)

We thought this was really cool. Along the shore down at the lake we found this line of ledge sticking out of the ground. It was so cool, just a straight line sticking jaggedly out of the sand! We saw several places like this on our little walk up the beach.

Grampie spent most of his time at the water....panning for gold!! There were little gold flakes all over the place. It was floating in the water and washed up all over the sand. It was pretty cool!

Grammie and Eden got to play in the water for a while. It was nice and refreshing! The water was warm and you could walk out quite a ways, so Eden could play and swim by herself! We had a great time!

Kids Newest Summer Pictures!

Asher, Eden and Rachel came to help Dillon celebrate his second birthday this past weekend. We had great fun and of course had to have pictures done. They all just get cuter and cuter every year!

This picture here they just look like they are having way too much fun!!

We also threw in Rylee and Makayla to make the group complete! We are just one big happy family!! They make quite the crew, don't they?

Back from the beach...

There was lots of building going on...in the sand. This is the sand castle that Donnie built one day, which Asher later knocked down. We had fun playing in the sand!
Joanna is very carefully making a face out of sand! It was really cute!
Asher ran right into the water, he was so excited, but he found out that it was colder than he thought! It took some work to get him back in, but Livvy and Sonora got him to go back in!
They took him by the hands and talked him into going back in to play. Once he got wet he was fine and loved it!
This is one of the many creatures we found in the tide pools! They were so cool, lots of living creatures to touch and observe. We had a great time walking along the shore just looking for star fish and watching the dolphins.

Going to the beach...


Hey, we are off to the beach on Monday, I start vacation in about 1/2 an hour! We are going to El Capitan Beach camping with the Keys family for the week. We are taking Asher with us and he is very excited about going! I will have lots of pictures and hopefully good stories to post later. Still haven't got any pictures of Carol-Ann with her cast, but will before she gets it off. Donnie is off on another adventure to Utah for a load of hay, this time Will went with him. They are headed back right now, should be home later tonight. He is a very busy man. We are enjoying Asher's company for a few weeks and then get to swap children and keep Eden for a while. How great is it to be the grandparents? Love um, spoil um and then send um home!! Ok, just thought I would update everyone on what is going on out here! More photos when we get back from the beach!!
