It's spring break here (for Shane!), and so we went away for a day to visit some friends who were camping at the Kern River. Since we had never been to that area of the state before, it was an extra fun adventure, and a very beautiful part of California! Our friends were camping, but we stayed one night at a hotel about five minutes up the road, but also right on the river.
The kids had a great time exploring, throwing rocks in the river, and playing with the other kids. The friends we met have some older girls, and Faith had her hair and nails done by them, which she really enjoyed! Of course I was a bit worried about the kids playing so close to the water. At the campground, there was a little creek that all the kids played near. Shane attempted to cross over it on a log as others had done, but the little guy fell in! Thankfully he was just cold and not too traumatized or hurt!!
Olivia had a nice time too, and enjoyed all the attention she received!
Since we drove through Bakersfield to get to the Kern river, we could not resist stopping at Dewars for some ice cream! It was a highlight! We also stopped by the Crystal Palace for dinner on the way home.
And now for a few random pictures from the last few days...Shane found Larry the lobster, and Olivia once again has fallen prey to Shane's decoration! Good thing she doesn't mind...yet!
The other morning Faith found a book on Whales, and so she decided that her sister need to learn about them! It was really cute! Faith would read something and then talk to Olivia about it!
And lastly Olivia on her tummy! She is mastering the roll over from her tummy to back! It's amazing at this stage seeing her develop and learn new things daily! She is playing more with toys and of course putting everything she can in her mouth! The older two kids love seeing her do new things too and are so excited to interact with her more! Finally, we are getting very excited about the big Michigan game tomorrow night in the Final Four!!!
