Yosemite 2009

I almost don't have to write anything here. I just love this place. The view of half dome right after you come through the tunnel on the way to Yosemite Village is just breathtaking. They have cleared out some trees that blocked the view and it so perfect.

This is why we drive for an hour and a half to visit Yosemite . It is just magestic. And we look pretty cute too, don't we?
Here are the two Steve's. Little Steven looks like he is touching the moutain.

I wanted a family photo here but Megan was sleeping. No, we weren't about to disturb a sleeping baby.

So, I finally got the family to pose. One day they will tell Megan that she went to Yosemite when she was 6 months old.

We ate lunch at Yosemite Lodge and then we walked up to Yosemite Falls. Don stayed at the Lodge with Megan because the walk was slippery from ice. Here is a suggestion if you ever leave a great uncle with a baby in a public place. Give them some details about the baby. Like how old is she? People kept commenting on what a cute baby Megan is and they asked how old she was. He had no idea. He looked at the tag in her shirt and it said 12 months. He thought that sounded too old. (he was right!) But, he just ended up being honest and told people that he really wasn't sure how old she was. He was just watching her. But, Megan is really cute and brings in a lot of comments. Now back to the ice hike. Here they are at the start of the walk. It does look icy.


We made it to the falls pretty fast. I have never seen the path so empty. People walking down warned us to watch the path for ice. We had to go off of the path, just to keep from slipping. But, it was well worth the effort.

Aren't they cute !Katie made it!
