Yosemite.....

I wonder how many gazillions of times there has been a family shot here at the tunnel view...with the gorgeous half dome in the background..... Our beautiful kids :)

The breathtaking half dome with an alpen glow. This was the view from our tent cabin !!!!

Love this reflection......

We rented bikes and rode all over the valley. Definate highlight of the weekend. It was SO much fun !!!!!

One the of the trails we rode on. I would love to go back in a couple of weeks to see this after the leaves change to gold and red. They were just starting to change.

Our view of the river.

GREAT weekend !!!!! We are so lucky to have this beautiful park in our backyard !!!

A new cut :)

She cut off a lot of hair...feels so much lighter. Next color touch up I'll go my fall/dark.....but for now no gray, so I am happy !!

A blessing for Cookie.....

Today was the Feast Day of St. Francis......the patron saint of pets. The 4th graders got to take their pets to school to receive a blessing. Cookie really needed this since he escaped and was gone for a day :) Father Blessing doing the blessing. Yes, his name really Father Blessing. He is the sweetest, kindest man !!!!

The 4th graders with the cats, dogs, bunnies, turtles, fish, guinea pigs and lizards :)
