Mt. Shasta '08

~The Girls~
Sarah, Anne
Kaydance, Avery, Maddelyn

My sister Chari called recently and wanted to know if we could come out and visit, like we usually do at least once during summer break. Hmm, I've been so busy or whatever I hadn't even thought about it but within a week the kids and I, and as always, Kaydance, were on our way. (Rob stayed behind because he's still teaching 2 summer school classes - math and football) It was the first trip in the new car and a nice trial period to see what our long trip at the end of the month might feel like. It was a very nice, easy,and a smooth ride! I'm glad we were able to get the car before our big trip because it's much more roomier for me and my growing belly!

Anyway, the kids had a blast! We relaxed, played, watched movies, hung out, went to Lake Siskiou- the kids favorite! As you can see, just being at their house is relaxing. It is a beautiful piece of property! The only negative was the recent fires in California, but the smoke wasn't too heavy most of the time. Here are a few pictures of our much too short adventure:

A rare photo of Jen and belly-about 7 months along.

Carter was comfy using mama as a chaise lounge! =)

And lastly, a rare photo op!
