So I know it has taken me forever to get this post out, but it has been a little crazy around here. We went to Donner Lake for the Fourth and Nate left the 5th of July to Ohio for two weeks. So I have been playing the role of single mother for about a week and a half. I am not enjoying it too much. It has been better than I anticipated it to be, but I am getting tired of it. The bad thing too is that he will only be home for a week and then he is off to Chicago for two weeks, home again for two weeks and then off to Colorado for four weeks. I think I may go insane. So if the posts are far and few between you will know why.
Back to our vacation. My family all got together at my Aunt and Uncles cabin at Donner. On Saturday Nate's brother and his family came from Reno to spend the day with us. It was a lot of fun and just what we needed.
Hanging out on the porch in the hammock.
Bristol reading to Kali. She would get upset if Kali touched the book.
Oh the blue frosted cupcakes. It is a little scary to think of how much food coloring was in that frosting.
Waiting to walk down to the lake to see the fireworks.
Waiting for the fireworks.
The show was worth the wait. Bristol had me hold my hands over her ears the entire 20 minute show.
Kayaking with Daddy the next day. She was not too sure about it at first, I think.
Kali hanging out on the beach.

Nicole, cute pics. looks like fun for the kids. The girls loved the fire works we saw also, even Zara enjoyed them. What a pretty area to be, nice to see trees. We don't see them much around here. We really enjoyed visiting with you in Utah. Hope we can get together soon. Hang in there while nate is gone.
We had a great time with you and your fantastic fam at the lake! Thanks. We can't wait until the next time we see you... and I bet you can't wait for the next time you see your hubby! Best wishes with that. Love you guys!
