State Fair!

More pictures that I forgot to post . . . The boys and I at the state fair.  I didn't lose either of the boys and we had a great time despite the crowds!

Donner Lake . . . finally!

I am finally posting the pictures from our Donner Lake camping trip.  I don't know that it has ever taken me this long before!

Fun around the camp sites:

Danny and Hannah use a fire pit as a race car

The making of mud pies - yummy!

Fresh Picked Blackberries!

4x4ing in the back of Mark's truck to get to the creek to pick the berries.

The berries were yummy and plentiful, and well worth the mosquito bites and thorn scratches!

Playing

We went to the park to play and Austin spent most of his time climbing the trees, just as a little boy should be doing!

The boys swinging (and falling off) the tire swing.  It is a totally blurry picture but I love it!
