Cali part 1

The cabin where we stay every summer. ... and me and my dad laying in the sun.
Ty and Ben playing in the cupboards!

Ty climbed these extremely steep stairs all by himself!!

Ty and Emma.

My sisters...doing what we did most of the weekend... soaked up some sun!

All of Ty's cousins on my side. ..Trying to get a good picture of all of them all together is almost impossible!!

Here's Ty playing with my sister's newest addition... Sam.

Last Thursday I arrived here in Arcata... Cali... with my family and I've been having a great time. First thing Friday morning we left for Willow Creek (45 min away) to spend the weekend with my entire family at our neighbors cabin who graciously lets us use it every summer. All the cousins had a great time playing together and Ty learned how to pull things out of the cupboard... thanks to Benjamin... so we will now be getting locks put our cupboard at home. We spent most of our time in the pool and enjoying the sunshine.

Here are a few pictures from the weekend. I will be here until Sunday.... and Ty and I miss Drew like crazy!!

What a great trip... that "cabin" looks like quite the abode. That is so nice of your nieghbors. Too bad those summers of just catching rays have passed....now we chase kids, and get strange tan lines from bending over all day. :)

Sounds like you guys are having a blast with your family! That cabin looks like fun, with the pool. I'm so sad we couldn't get together this trip, but maybe at Christmas time! I had to play major catch up on your blog! It's been forever since I've checked it. I love all the pictures, and I'm sure Ty had a ball at Bear Lake! I can't believe how big he's getting!!

What a nice cabin. Weird but I feel like I've been there before. Could that be possible? Anyway... Ty is so cute. Look at how good he is being in that group shot of the cousins! Can't wait to see you guys tomorrow. I'm sure Jody wishes Drew were with you as well!
