The End Of Julian

Here are the last of the pictures, finally, from our Julian camping trip. It was supposed to rain on Sunday but it held off until the evening. It poured that night and the wind was so loud! We got up Monday morning, packed up and left. It was way too cold and wet to stay. I was a little sad because we didn't get to visit the little town of Julian. I guess we will have to go back one of these days.


The kids got a treat after their naps if they ate their lunch. Michael didn't eat his lunch so he was really sad.

Annie eating my ice cream. She took it over and shared with everyone.

Anthony and Jaileigh

It was so sad!

Jaileigh enjoying her ring pop.

Annie was in heaven.

Michael finally ate and got his ring pop too.

Anthony grinning from ear to ear.

Playing in the dirt again. Michael loved the dirt, just like Annie!

All done with the hat!

Winter Camping

We were supposed to go to Park City this week but decided to not go. We were just there in June and we really couldn't afford to take another trip. We decided to stay at home and have fun. We are still going to my parents for Christmas.

This weekend we went camping. We left Thursday evening. It was raining and windy. The kids were so excited! They have been asking for a couple of weeks to go camping.

It rained all night and when we woke up the next morning it wasn't raining but there were so many cool puddles to play in.

Michael treading carefully.

The kids fought over who got to push Annie in her stroller. Anthony won this time.

Until she escaped.

Then he didn't have anyone to push!

These two are so cute together. They were holding hands all on their own.

Visiting Santa!

Jaileigh, Jake, Annie, Anthony, Michael

Annie ended up falling in the biggest puddle face first so our walk ended and we headed home.

What a happy group!

Eating smores- everytime we light the firepit I am so nervous someone is going to get burned or poke each other with their roasters. The kids have so much fun roasting their marshmellows. None of them even eat them. They just like to play with fire I guess.

The 2nd Day

I wanted to get a picture of all the kids on this old tree stump but only 2 1/2 would cooperate. Michael and Annie gave me smiles and Jaileigh wouldn't. Michael and Jake wouldn't even get on it for me.

Jaileigh jumping to daddy.

Annie, Jaileigh and Michael checking the ducks out.

Anthony was tired of walking I guess.

Anthony said he was riding Dumbo.
