Yosemite Trip!


Quentin had the week off so we went on our first family trip through Yosemite. Quentin wanted to drive all they way through the park, I didn't realize it was such a long drive, but it was beautiful. We saw a couple of deer along the way, we stopped and checked them out, they were so close to us. By the end of the drive through Yosemite to the hotel the babies were so sick of being in there car seats they cried for the last 20 minutes. The next morning we went to the Sugar Pine Railroad and took an hour steam train ride, Brendin really loved it. The ride was pretty neat, they just talked about all the logging they did bake in the day. After that we went and had some lunch, then continued on back through the park and stopped and looked at Half Dome and I cant remember what the other mountain was called but it was a beautiful site to see. On we went to Bridalveil Fall, it was the shortest hike we could find to a waterfall. As we were walking up to see the falls with the babies in there baby Bjorn's an older couple from Austria stopped us a wanted to take a picture of us and look at the babies, I think they missed there grand kids back at home. Then when we got up to the waterfall a big group from Belgium that was on a bus tour came up and kind of swarmed around us just memorized with our kids, one of the ladies wanted to hold Ethan while Q took Brendin up the rocks a little closer to the water. She just holding him and all the people were coming up a saying Hi to both of them and Ayla just looked up at me like Mom who are these people! It is so funny when there are more than just one baby people think it is just so fascinating. They were such nice people. After that we just drove through Yosemite Valley and looked around and then headed back home. It was a nice trip with the family, I think next we will make it a longer trip though, we were only there 2 days you could stay there at least 4 or so.
