Napa

My sis and I along with her girls took a quick trip over to Napa last weekend. My dads four remaining sisters were all flying from Atlanta to be in Napa with our Cousin who was in need of some pick-me-up.

We got into town late Saturday night and enjoyed a super yummy dinner over at Ashley and Careys house. They have a fabulous view of Napa. You cannot get enough of the scenery. We visited for a few hours and then headed to Mark and Sharons where we stayed the night.

The next morning everyone came to Mark and Sharons and we had breakfast and enjoyed more visiting time.

Family time is the best!!!

Storyland & Playland

Since the weather had cooled off just a bit, I thought it would be nice to use the Groupon and head to Storyland and Playland. We met up with Whitney and the girls and had a great time!

Hannah really wanted to do the roller coaster first but being the sweet girl she is, she conceded to Havens request to start at the carousel. So thats where we started.

Then on to the roller coaster. It was so cute - Hannah and Justus rode just about every ride together that they could.


We hit up a few more rides. Haven and Claire are just as cute. I love their little friendship!





The kids really wanted to do the Pirate boats so Whitney and I got our workout paddling each kid separately around the lake.

Took time for a picnic lunch.

Then onto Storyland.

Gotta take a pic on the Throne.

The playground area is always a hit.

Fun stuff!

The night before

The night before we went to Yosemite we got to spend the night up at Mrs Pats house in Coarsegold.

The kids had a great time playing with her very intricate dollhouse

Then when Karis got up they played Slip n Slide for the first time. Justus caught on right away and sliding all over the place.

The kids had fun.

Waterfalls

The kids and I had a great opportunity to go to Yosemite and go see the waterfalls with Renee, Karis and Mrs. Pat.

The car ride was fun. The kids got to sit in the way back which is their favorite.

Then we stopped at the look out point where you can just see amazing views of Gods creation.




We took our little hike up to Yosemite fall.




Enjoyed the majesty of Gods creation.

We walked back making sure to take our time and play lots.

Checked out a GIANT rock
Felt the FREEZING cold water

Walked across a fallen tree



Played in the dirt - apparently good for all ages!
Checked out the Teepee
We had a super fun time!

Theyve come and gone

My parents left today after their week long stay. I cant believe I didnt take any pictures! We had a jam packed week full of fun events - think 4th of July - and lots of friend seeing and of course, great family time.

Always sad to see the parents go!
