We do not remember days, we remember moments.: July 2008

Camping Trip with the Boys, Buffalo Creek, CO

My sister's kids, Dylan and JJ came and spent some time

with us this summer. What a time we had. We sure realized

how much we missed having them around. We went

camping the first weekend they got here.

Lydia, Maddy, Mommy and Daddy got sick and JJ....

Dylan. Trying to find a good fishing spot. That

was a little hard with the other kids splashing all around

the creek.

JJ and Taylor. Cute

Jeff trying to fish....didn't catch anything this time!

JJ, was goofing around the fire and fell. Thank
God, is was only slight burn, because it truly
could have been catatrophic.

The kids!

Lydia's version of enjoying the slip n slide.

Taylor loved the slip n slide. It has made it
home with us, and she loves to do it in Colorado too!

Old high school friends.

We don't look bad for our age!

More time on the California Coast!

Taylor is shy.....hid behind lots of sand smeared all over her body.

Maddy could barely handle the water, although after several tries, she stopped lifting her little feet to avoid the water and let the water swoosh around her.

Lydia found this shovel and had a great time, staying dry and
digging for crabs. She likes the water to be hot, not cold.

What a bathing beauty!

Gosh we just love the beach!

We all loved cooling off after a warm day at the zoo, at the beach. Maddy tested the sand, and said that it was good. Taylor got entirely drenched, while Lydia got a few toes wet!
