Vacation

Wednesday night we went up to Mariposa to spend the weekend with Wayne's dad. He has a newly built log cabin in the woods. It was so great to be able to get away for five days and enjoy nature.
Madison and Collin both enjoyed going out and picking apples off the tree and eating them fresh.




Once Collin had his apple the wanted to lay down to eat it. The problem was he was on his dad's shoulders. I got them in the house and he laid right down and started munching, Madison then had to join him.


Madison really enjoyed the swing.

While Madison was on the swing Collin and daddy were cuddling on the porch, trying to stay warm.

We were able to go up to Yosemite and enjoy an afternoon "hiking" on the trails. They weren't really hikes it was more of a walk through the woods, it was the best we could do with young kids.


With Half Dome behind us.

Over looking the valley.

The last night we were there Madison fell asleep in front of the fire...

then ended the nights sleep with Collin.

Helping Papa feed the chickens.

This was the second time she fed the chickens. The first she got dried corn on the cob from the garden and threw it into them. A few days later she found a play corn on the cob and threw it to imaginary chickens saying" chickens, corn, eat". It was adorable.
