Muir Woods

We really enjoyed being able to go out to California a couple of weeks ago. 

We took the kids to 

Muir Woods.

Or as Aeryn calls it...

'the redwood forest'.

They LOVE redwood trees and were really excited to get to 

explore the woods all around us.

Doesn't that cute face just melt your heart!

It sure does for me! 

Xander is the sweetest boy ever!

I love him...

he is my baby...

and always will be.

Here are the kids. 

We didn't pack enough warm clothes

and it was a little 

chilly.

Everyone is wearing either

my sweater

or 

my mom's sweater!

Here is my cutie family!

What a handsome hubby, huh!! 

The kids all climbed inside this 

fallen redwood tree.

The inside was all hollow and they 

thought it was super fun! 

Ellie and Travis with my dad

standing inside of a hollow out

redwood...but it is still standing

They are amazing trees! 

Here is my kids with Grandma, Grandpa, 

and Nana (my kids great-grandma).

I love my hubby!

He is such a good man.

He loves me 

supports me

lotions my feet :)

let's me cry and whine

and holds me when I need it

and when I don't! 

 We did a scavenger hunt throughout 

Muir Woods.

It was really fun.

This is Xander taking charge of the book 

filled with all the directions.

He thinks he can read...

and we let him think that!

Mostly he likes to find the letter 'X'

it is his letter!
