Yosemite July 2007

July 15th we left for Yosemite with our neighbors , for an 8 day trip. It always feels like were in heaven when we go camping. We tent camp, so we get a little weary of the bears at night. We just make sure Makenzie is real clean from the sticky marshmallows around the campfire, we would want the bears to come and lick her in the middle of the night. As you can tell from the pics, the scenery is beautiful, but as for us our hair is wind blown and there is no such thing as Make-up on these trips and keeping Makenzie clean is about 10 outfit changes per day.

Hike to the top of Lembert Dome with a view of Tuolomne Meadows.





Hike to Soda Springs.

Drinking the spring water, it was disgusting!



this is the Baxter Family, Julie Geo, McKinzie, Jaden, Jace, and Alanah. They are our neighbor's. Makenzie was so happy to have her friends join us.










Yosemite Valley





This is the beautiful Half Dome.



Olmstead Point overlooking Half Dome way back in the distance. This is on the way back to our campground after visiting the valley. The valley is almost 2 hours from Tuolomne Meadows because they lowered the speed limit to prevent cars from hitting the beautiful bears and birds.
