Pool Play and New Camera

Ian bought a new camera a few weeks ago and I am considering getting the same one as a graduation present. It is waterproof, so I figured I would put that to the test with his camera before I got mine. It works great! I threw this clip together in iMovie and thought I would share. The kids love playing in the pool and their new slide.

The Big Move

A cross country move is a bit of a challenge. Add a nursing baby, a toddler and a 12 year old van with no a/c and broken windows and you have an adventure!


Our Navigator


The Happy Traveler

We made quite a few stops along the way. Here are just a few of them.


Starved Rock State Park
Utica, Illinois


Historic Nauvoo
Nauvoo, Illinois


The Big Tree House
Marshalltown, Iowa


Union Pacific Railroad Classification Station
North Platte, Nebraska


Ames Brothers Pyramid
Buford, Wyoming


Temple Square (and A LOT more with our week long stay in Utah...more on that later)
Salt Lake City, Utah


And finally we arrived in Duarte, CA. The bear came out to help us unload our pod at the end. What a great help.
