The Smiths come to visit!

T-5 days until our next adventure!
 
Last weekend the Smiths came to visit
and we had so much fun.
 
Zola (1), Cedar (3), Rosie (2) and Uma (3)
on a hike at Mosquito Cove.
 

Lots of bear sign on the trail, but at any given
time one of us was crying, thus keeping all bears at bay.

Cedar and Uma, being so adorable!




Zola sharing her snacks with Cedar.



 
And naked babies in the ocean! 
The Starbucks went first, with the Smiths close behind.






Dads double diaper duty! 

Salmon, corn and broccoli with our friend Sam-Sam.

Hike to Heart Lake and picnic by the water.

They are my best favorites." - Cedar

Preschool - end of year one

 
One way you can tell Cedar has matured is that he is wearing different
clothes in the pictures.  Before he wore the same shirt every day to
school because he would paint himself, or something similar, and
ruin all of his clothes.  But now he can add variety, and something
so simple as that shows leaps and bounds!
