4th of July 2015

 It was another fun filled day but I only took pictures in the morning,

 Here's the neighborhood heading to the parade.  Hayden opted to walk.  

 Hayden was happy to see an army truck!

 Making our way to the park.

We played at the park for a little, then swam at Scotts, had a pot luck dinner in our new side yard, and finished with fireworks on the street!

Family Fountain Project

 Here's the fountain as a blank canvas before we placed the shells.  

 The table where we roughly laid out the pattern.

 There was a lot going on that day!  Planting, fountain building and barn door hanging.

 The kids got to help place shells.

 And so did the adults.

In all it took about 3 half days to get all the shells on.  We just helped with day 1.

Last one

 On the last full day of our trip we got to visit with Uncle Bob and Aunt Marj.

 Then I snapped a few photos of them!

 Afterwards we headed up the hill to see the big trees.

 Hayden borrowed a book from Bob and Marj on Sierra Nevada wildlife.

 Hailey looking at a butterfly.

 Then a quick picnic lunch.

 And a little more exploring.
