Annually Spectacular

Kennedy Meadows is a vacation we anticipate yearly. When visiting this haven, one would definitely understand why it's necessary to book reservations over a year in advance... it's just that spectacular!
Other than not bringing my camera everywhere (sometimes nature overrides technology!), we did the following:

Lots of fishing,

some baiting,

managing to stay dirty the entire time,

managing to self-bathe (notice the luxury camping setting?),

learning the river is not as fun and/or warm as it looks,

looking beautiful and clean the entire time,

getting wild by the campfire,

capturing the perfect smore,

taking advantage of daily ice cream trips,

exploring,

hanging out (with two little baby bumps, Scarlett and Cruz),

and comparing experiences from last year:

Kids on a log,2009 (my have they grown!):

The pictures express themselves--a good, no, great time was had by all.

And now, I'm enjoying having clean feet and knowing our reservations are set for next year!

PS--missed you terribly Pfieffers--definitely not the same without you guys!!!

That's a First!

After posting that both boys went down for their naps one hour early... I walked into Kid's room to wake him from his and found this:

I had to chuckle as I looked around the room and noticed small items proving that that extra hour of sleep was not, in fact, used for sleep.

I always loved those picts of the kids sleeping in their high chairs, closets, under their beds, etc... never have I gotten one. Until now. Thanks for making the baby book complete, Kid!
