Catching Up -- Yosemite

It's been a little busy around here over the last few weeks, lots of family, family, family. And housecleaning. I'll spend the week with highlights to catch you up.

We spent some time in Yosemite, one of the most beautiful places on earth. We love camping and playing there, despite what a pain in the neck it is to pack the bearboxes.

Getting ready to go

 Happy Isles bike ride

Regular napping still a challenge even with extreme play. At least we have the Burley.

 Exploring with old friends

We had a few rainy days but overall the weather was great. I'm a big proponent of buying and wearing the right gear — it's cheap insurance against a miserable (or dangerous) trip.

 Wildlife

Stamping our journal with a special stamp and the date in the visitor's center.

 Water watching

 Rock throwing into the "Rabbit River" (rapid river)

Look, Mommy, I'm a big kid.

 Boy play.

I know. Gender neutral activity, don't stereotype, blah blah. But boys throwing rocks is just... BOY.
