My sister came out a few days before we left to paint the kids rooms! LOVE THEM!!!
Nate's room isn't done yet, we are adding a bamboo fence around the bottom half of the room. This picture doesn't show it, but she also painted clouds around the whole room. Its adorable. I can't stop bragging about it!!
Big Trees. Way back when they cut this tree down they built a bar and bowling alley on top of it! This is a crazy big tree!!
Nate and Jenna, cousins and BFF's for the entire trip!
Nate and I in front of the trees called "Mother and Son"
I have a picture of me around Nate's age, sticking my head out of the same tree. I love that I get to share some of my childhood memories with my kids.
The whole gang. I tried to find a picture of my mom with her eyes open....but her eyes were closed in all 8 pictures we took in this pose!
Tracy and Ryan, Tammy and Ellie...this picture reminded me of one we took 5 years ago...see next picture...
Tammy and Nate, Tracy and Jenna - Nov. 2004
Our old house. Columbia, California
We took a stagecoach ride and even got robbed at gun point, but we didn't have anything they wanted, oh well!
The vacation house we rented in Arnold, CA. This is the view from the 3rd floor bridge looking down and outside. There is a reason they call this house "Castle in the Clouds" #1-the house is enormous and beautiful #2-you are literally up in the clouds its so high up. Not only was the house 3 stories tall but you had to go up 2 incredibly steep driveways (think San Francisco steep) to get to it! You can't be afraid of heights and stay in this house!
I am so glad we got to do this together as a family and am grateful that FAMILIES ARE FOREVER!!

Wow Tammy.....looks like you guys had an excellent time. The kids rooms look so great. I love the pink and brown tree...very girly :)
It does my heart good to see pictures of good ol' Sonora. Except that old house in Columbia--I got a cold shiver instead. :) Are those stories you guys used to tell us true? Something must be weird about that place since no one's lived there, probably since you guys.
How fun is that! It makes me miss my family! I love Tracy's paintings in the kids rooms! I will have to hire her to come do something with Tyson's room!
Tracy did such a great job on the walls! Can't wait to see them I think we need a dinner date =o) Love all the pics of your trip didn't even know you guys were gone lol!
