Where has the time gone??
Some updates for the Mori family...
The kids are doing well in school!
Jared and Kegan are playing basketball at a local gym and I am Kegan's coach!
I've been enjoying that very much!
Grandma and Papa were in town a few weeks ago and it was a lot of fun having them here!
Unfortunately, Kegan got a relapse of pneumonia and an asthma attack where she ended up in the ER and 5 days in the hospital for breathing treatments! Thank God Grandma was here to help us!! She is dong much better now.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

Happy Birthday Timmy!

He is 4 now!

Loves Pirates and loves to draw!

His best friend is Johnny Pinner.

His favorite food is any sauce like ketchup.

We had a birthday party for him on Sunday, July 26th.

Jill got a water slide but he never went down the slide from the very top.

He was also mad at Jill because she invited 4 girls(Julia, Ellie, Sarah, Taylor) to the party. He only approved up to 3!

Of course the theme of the party was "Pirates"!

Over the weekend we went camping in the Sequoia National Monument. It's just south of the more famous Sequoia National Forest. We camped at Quaking Aspen campground for 3 days! Kids had a great time!

On saturday we drove to the Trail of a Hundred Giants!

Trail of a Hundred Giants is located within the Long Meadow Giant Sequoia Grove, the second most southern grove where giant sequoias are found. The Grove contains 125 giant sequoias over 10 feet in diameter and 143 sequoias under 10 feet in diameter. The largest tree in the grove has a diameter of 20 feet and is 220 feet in height. The grove encompasses 355 acres. It is estimated the age of the trees in the grove are between 500 to 1,500 years old.

Here are some pictures from the trip
