The "Trip" to the Mountains

This weekend was our trip to Big Bear with Gabe, Allie, and their family. Here's a pic of their family in the mountains.
Here's a shot of our fam. (Keira was napping.)
Gabe and Andrew telling stories around the campfire.
Andrew eating marshmallows while sitting on a log.
Gabe and I viewing the beautiful stars after the kids were in bed. What a beautiful trip!

Okay, okay. You got me. Was it that obvious? :) The first pic was from our Idyllwild trip with the Encarnacions last year. We were set to leave Saturday morning, but Gabe came down with what we thought was the stomach flu. (We're now fairly certain it was food poisoning.) Either way, it was nasty, so we stayed home. Andrew was very sad so today we "went to the mountains" in our house today. After all of the effort I went through to get it to feel like time in the woods, Andrew said, "And can we go to the mountains now?" Oh well. It was fun while it lasted.

Sorry to hear Gabe is sick. (I heard Isaac had serious stomach flu also. Are they linked?) Get well soon.

Yes, I think they both got food poisoning from a pastors' lunch they were both at on Thursday. 4 of the men who were there all woke up saturday morning sick. poor pastors. :(

Bummer! Sorry to hear you couldn't make it to the mountains. Though the Barber Mountain looked just as fun. Love the pic of Andrew eating his marshmallow with great concentration.
