Today: Look at how little Maggie and Jessica are...how cute! Also, Brynn, I noted the name of the dog that Jesse is eating. POE!

Yosemite state park

We went to Yosemite state park. It was a rough start because Maggie stayed up too late and woke up super early. She was a bit of a crabby patty til we got there and saw the SNOW. Here's some pics from the day....

At a picture stop on the way there....




Maggie and Jessica made a snowman!




He's such a tree hugger




The gorgeous view



The end of the waterfall



She finally fell asleep and slept for 2 hours while we walked around and drank hot chocolate at the historic hotel there.



Jesse was so hungry, he decided to eat "Poe". That's maggie's furreal friend from McDonald's.



On our way out of the park. Guess what we saw? A coyote!




Someone wrote on the side of the van. Any idea who it was?!

Random

I am such a dork listening to the ELLEN show on a video on Joey's blog. Steven and I are sharing his ear phones and laughing outloud. People are looking at us.

We are flying out of Richmond and I am going to pick up Maggie. Then, we are headed back to Manteca.

We talked to some missionaries in Florida that speak spanish. We told them where we were from and they thought that it was hilarious that our town was named Manteca. Manteca means lard in spanish.

Last night, the Church of the Brethren had a peace march around the Marriott. I'm not sure what they accomplished from their walk, but it was fun to watch from the top of the convention center.

I'm in the South

I forget that I love the south. I love how friendly people are. I was in the bathroom. There was a mom with 4 boys under 4. How do I know this? Every lady in there was helping out the mama with her boys and talking to her. While this was going on, 2 ladies met and realized that they had gone to the same high school. Only in the south would this happen!

I'm in New Orleans. I spent the night with my dad and stepmom. They are taking care of Maggie for the week. They all seemed excited. I hope they are excited when I pick her up!

I'm delayed by 30 minutes and then going to Atlanta. I have a 2 hour lay over there. I hope that I make it to Richmond in time. i have a back up flight. Evidently all the flights are delayed coming in and out of Atlanta. I should be in Atlanta at the exact same time that Steven is there, but he leaves on a later flight.

AND...he left his cell phone at home. If anyone needs him this week, call me. I hope he reads this or gets the email that I left him about my change in flights.
