Canada Vacation

We took the kids out of school the last 2 days to get a head start on our 32 day vacation.  Our first stop was camping for 2 nights in the Redwoods.  We enjoyed our campsite amidst the tall trees.  The boys discovered pretty quickly that the trees had perfect branches for climbing.  Nathan climbed up pretty high - too high for my comfort.  I took a couple of pictures and then told him to get down!  


This water area was a favorite spot - anywhere they can throw rocks!  Savannah was more interested in making rock piles.  

                                           



Nearly every tree they could climb, the boys scampered up.  No fallen tree left unclimbed...











Our next stop was Crescent City - Alex loves it there!  He has been there before, but it was the rest of the family's first time to see it.  We stopped at the cheese factory on the way out of town. 

The kids loved hanging out at the beach and the park.

We stayed one night in Medford, Oregon.  One of the most favorite parts of our trip was the waterslide at the motel!  It was fun - I tried it a couple of times.  

Alex and I got up early in the morning and went to the Medford Oregon Temple.  (Nathan is now old enough to watch the kids - he did a good job throughout our trip in helping out.)  This was 1 of 8 new temples that we visited on our trip!  We tried to visit all of the ones along our route.  We took advantage of being able to go in the evenings or early mornings of our motel stays - basically instead of crashing in front of the TV or sleeping in at the motel, we went to the temple instead.


On the road again...
