The difference between a mountain and a molehill is your perspective

Today was SO much fun!!! We went into the Sierra National Forest and up into Yosemite National Park. We were way up high and the mountains were huge!!! We hiked, walked trails, saw waterfalls, and toured the visitor center. It was so cool. We even saw where there was a major landslide that blocked the road a few months ago and we had to go through a temporary road/bridge to get up to the park. My ears kept popping as we climbed altitude, but it was worth it. Here are lots of pictures from the fun we had...Enjoy!


Here is Mommy and I standing by a Yosemite Trail Info board...It was quite informational!

This was the first place we hiked up to. It is called Bridalveil Falls. It was beautiful.

Iya & I decided we wouldn't try to climb up the rocks with Judy & Dave...it was way to slippery for us clutzes!

Mommy carried me around with her so I wouldn't have to miss the sites by sitting in my stroller

I was getting worn out pretty quickly since I'm not used to breathing air so thin in such high altitudes

Here is me on top of a really big black bear. My Great-Aunt Judy and Mommy seemed to have the bear well trained not to eat me!

This is me with my Great Aunt Judy and Great Uncle Dave...and of course my buddy the bear.

The big bear let me have one of its cubs to take home with me...I named her Yosie!

At the end of the day I was pretty sweaty and not too happy about getting a bath

Today was a great day...I miss everyone back on the east coast, especially my Daddy...XOXOXO

I MISS YOU TOO SWEETHEART!!!! COME HOME!!!!!

ps- Yosie is very cute. You picked a good bear to bring home. Just remember to pack him in a crate under the plane for the ride home with enogh food and water to last him the day (baby bears eat those little rat-dogs...I'm sure you can find a few at the airport to feed him!)

Daddy loves you!!!
