What to do in PineValley


First: play with babies. You can even convieniently pick a size (large, x-large, super-sized). Or help diaper, burp, retrieve pacifier, rock to sleep.

Second: Wait. Jessica? Yoo hoo. Who rocked Jessica to sleep?


Third: on to the reservoir. Joseph, Caleb, and Justin ( who didn't want his picture taken) finished Jedi/Indiana Jones training from the Uncles. (Or until they think of another jedi task. Caleb told me that the Uncles told them to "use their finger pads" to crawl up the wall and hang from the ceiling for one of their sessions.)

Fourth: ReNae checking on Jill in the babypack with her handy-dandy attached baby mirror. And yes, she did leave the upper dentures at home.



Fifth: Jaime, the best baby-tender in the world swings Jill to sleep...
and Jaime let me do her hair like Mickenzie's, who "only does her hair like this when she doesn't care what she looks like."


Sixth: And the boys caught a snake.

Oops, I mean snakes.
Actually, they caught lots of snakes. Why does it always have to be snakes?

Seventh: This is how ReNae keeps that cute figure of hers. Two hours hiking like this, and folks I heard not a word of complaint.

Eighth: (And he's also #8 in the family. crazy.) This is how Jared keeps his cute... uh, wait. This is Jared removing a tree root out of the ground, with his bare hands, simply because I asked him to. (I did trip over it, so it was warranted.) Do the kind deeds ever cease in this family?
Nineth: Catching small fish in the stream.

10th: Watch Sam. I'll take two just like him anyday.

Eleventh: Wait patiently for the Murdoch girls to come home...

I LOVE THIS PICTURES! So cute! We has so much fun with everyone. Jake has a friend here that was at her grandparents house in Utah for like a month. The few weeks before we left he kept asking me when she was going to come home. But he never asked about her when we were in Pine Valley because he had so many super-cool cousins/aunts/uncles/grandparents to play with! So fun!

Great photos, Becky! You are a really photog!

I like the three babies and the snakes pictures. And Jamie's updo. And ReNae's backpack/mirror picture. And the girls in the water. Ok, I liked them ALL! Clever way to post them, Becky! You do a very good job.
