Camping at Grover Hot Springs

So last week we headed off to Grover Hot Springs, CA. It was so much fun and beautiful. We set up camp and immediately went exploring. The kids all round walking sticks and were pretending to be old men.


Beautiful views.....


Sammy walking with daddy who looks like he already has a headache! :-)

Bryce made a bow out of grass and a piece of wood.

We found some snake grass and Sammy is rubbing it together.

We hiked up to some waterfalls and played in the water.

It felt really good on our feet.


We found this rock with the a tree growing right out of the top of it! AMAZING! Grow where you are planted!


So Davis K gave the boyz this idea to keep cool on their heads cool on the hike! It was a big hit! They dipped them in the creek when we got to the first one. This was a beautiful hike! Travis and Melissa came down and did it with us. There were a TON of mosquitos! That was the only miserable thing!



Lake Margaret....our destination. It was 2.5 miles out.....and 2.5 miles back.....the boyz did really good!

Beautiful spring flowers.....

And cute Sammy crossing creeks!

This was Bryce's impersonation of a tree to catch the squirrels and chipmunks. He was hilarious! We had to be quiet so that he attract the animals!

This was the cutest animal we saw......Daniel with his 'reindeer antlers'.

We had a fun time! We love to go camping! So that catches us up for the summer so far. We have been swimming and hiking a lot. Kids taking swim lessons, going to the library.....school starts in 3 weeks. We have a wedding and family reunion this weekend and then Kevin starts school next week! :-( Almost time for a routine again. Hope your summer is going great!
