We had the pleasure of being able to make it to Josh’s youngest brother’s wedding in Yosemite. It was the first time for us to be there. It is a special place for Jake and Lacey though. It is where they, met, got engaged and now married. I can see why they fell in love with it.
We drove to Reno on Colby’s birthday so we could break up the drive and to meet Josh’s other brother, Jon, whose family drove from Spokane. We stayed in the same hotel and had fun the next morning taking it easy and enjoying the pool at the Casino.
The wedding was on Saturday. The only requirements for the wedding were to wear flip flops! We hiked up a little secluded path to over look the beautiful mountains. It was a very nice ceremony, and you just couldn’t beat the view!
The girls hitching a ride to the wedding!
Poor, Bailey. Colby would not let him out of his sight. He had to be doing everything Bailey was doing. Except in this picture, Colby made Bailey do what he was doing! What a good cousin!
All the cousins with Grammy and Papa!
After the ceremony we went to Tuolumne Meadows. We ate at a hamburger joint and then had an attempt at family photos!
Watch out, Delaney’s behind the wheel and loving it!
Who looks more wiped out, Delaney or Eliza?! What a day!
Spectacular views and steep cliffs at one of the turn-offs on the drive
We only had two days in the park and so we tried to make the most of it. The second day we drove further in the park to The Valley. We hiked to the giant sequoia trees and even hiked through one!
Delaney got a nice nap on the way back!
Jake took us to see El Capitan. He actually climbed this beast (pictures don’t do it justice). It took him a day and a half, which means he slept while hang out up there!
We also had to see Yosemite waterfalls, the largest in America and the seventh in the world, I believe.
This was the most amazing view I saw in the park!
We stayed in a town called June Lake. We spent our last day on the lake boating and swimming.
Luckily, this was the only bear we actually saw, although we heard there were some near by. We did see deer. It was a nice quick trip. Although, the ride home didn’t seem so quick!![]()
We decided to do the drive home all in one day. We took a different route the way home, which was fun. The downside was two crying babies from Wendover all the way home!
