We got the escape the heat at the end of July and go camping at my favorite place in the whole world. While everyone was suffering the 100 degree heat in Sacramento, we were bundled up and warming our hands at the fire. It was great.
Mari's favorite thing was to fly kites. Here is Daddy letting her hold the string while he ran to keep the kite in the air.
At the headlands, there was enough wind so Mari could hold the string by herself.
Mari became best friends with my cousin's daughter, Rylee. They are about 2 years apart, but that meant nothing to them.
The three little girls found a "fairy ring" of redwood trees. They loved sitting in that together.
Mindy's fiance, Jon, (now husband) got to come too. Here's the whole gang, minus Joey (who comes home from his mission in October!).

On a log near our campsite, almost all of us have our names carved in. I carved mine in back in 2003 when I graduated from high school. Grandpa carved Jon's name next to Mindy's, so Jon carved Aaron's name next to mine. What a brother-in-law!

That looks like so much fun and you look great! Congrats on the pregnancy...are you finding out what you are having? I also really enjoyed reading about your family history trip and talking with your great-grandmother. You are so lucky and that really will be priceless to have in the family!
