Pasitos Field Trip to YSI

Kate and Adele and I had a fun time at the Pasitos field trip to the Youth Science Institute.  

We learned about different types of animals...



And had loads of fun playing with our friends.  Here are Kate and Adele with their best buddies Noah and Vivienne.  It's like a reunion every time they meet.

Fun with more friends...

Gymnastics show

Kate and Adele did gymnastics this spring, and finished off the season with a show.  All the classes demonstrated what they did.  It was hard to get a good shot of them with the big crowds, but they enjoyed getting to perform a little.  Here are some pics...

Kate's group went first...

Then went Adele...

Mothers Day Weekend in Yosemite

There were a few extra spots open on a group trip to Yosemite for Mother's Day weekend with some friends from Emeline's school.  Since we never plan camping trips early enough to get any good spots, we decided to jump on board and take advantage of someone else's awesome planning.  So we spent the weekend at Yosemite's Housekeeping camp.  

It was beautiful there, full of freezing mornings, cranky sleep deprived parents and children, amazing scenery, big rocks to climb and also protect young ones from peril, and a great time getting to know our school community.  Here are some photos...

Obligatory photo at Casa de Fruta on the way...

The river by our campground...

On Mother's Day morning, all the mommas took a walk to the lodge for coffee while the dads and kids made brunch.

Before we drove home we stopped by Glacier point to check out the view.  It was amazing.
