March 25

Despite the sad news I got the night before about my grandma, we decided to still go ahead with pur plans to see Yosemite.

 Griffin liked the pinecone and I liked this door. Win win.

 Just reading to me. He is pretty smart.

 Creepy Jail cell that I wouldn't go in.

This bridge was pretty neat!

Then it was time to drive into the more famous part of Yosemite!

 Tired children!

It was such a beautiful and peaceful day! Making great memories with my family. We have been blessed to see some beautiful places in California.

On our way home I got the news that my grandma had passed away. I knew it was coming but it didn't make it any easier. Such a sweet lady.


Shopping and Sad News

March 24

We all headed to Tulare, CA to do some shopping at the outlets!

We got some lunch shortly after getting there.

Image

Image

Deegan needed a lemonade after I already paid so he got to pay for it all by himself! :)

Image

I let this monkey out of the stroller to stretch his legs and he didn't sit still!
 
Image

Image
Shopping was pretty exhausting! But they sure were great sports! We had fun with Teresa, Marley and Reese! Mommy got a few new shirts, a skirt, 2 purses and some sandals all for a great deal!

Later that night I got some very sad news. My Grandma Lola had a massive stroke and it was not looking good. She was not expected to recover. I was heartbroken. We were going to be home in just a few days and I might not get to see her again. It was very unexpected and we were praying for a miracle.
