I forgot to add a picture from our Yosemite trip!
On the way home we stopped in Bishop (home of mule days) for lunch and of course you must ride a mule when you are in Bishop!

Yosemite National Park
This last weekend we took Savannah on her first camping trip! We had a hard time deciding where to go but when a highly coveted spot opened up in Yosemite Valley we reserved it immediately. Yosemite valley spots are hard to get and are often completely taken within minutes of opening on their website. This was my 5th trip to Yosemite and the first time I have ever stayed in the actual valley. It was a great trip and definitely hope we can do it again!!
We arrived on Sunday and left on Wednesday morning. The weather was perfect. It was in the high 80's during the day and probably around 60's at night. Neither too hot or too cold.
We brought our bikes and used them to get around the valley. I went from no riding in 10 years to nearly 16 miles in 2 days! It was a great way to get around and the paths were not crowded at all. Except for deer... they were literally everywhere. Savannah loved watching all the deer. One morning we even woke to a mom and baby grazing right outside our tent.
We spent our time this trip riding our bikes, going to the visitor centers, and playing in the Merced river. Two full days was not a lot of time but it was good to see how Savannah would react to the camping experience. She did really well and even made a camp friend with the 4 year old girl in the site next to us!

 |
| These babies were very curious and nearly came right up to us. |

| Babies everywhere! |
