A Chance Meeting

Kate's Aunt Shannon and I took the little ones to the Visitor's Center shop, and did a bit of shopping before we left Mammoth, and as we walk out with packages, who is out in front but Kevin and the boys on their bikes.
Oh, uh, hi! Hello.
Shopping again?
Nooooo! Not us. Why would you even think that?

Kate with her new black kitty (she wasn't goin' for the bear I tried to get her), posing with Smokey.


(L-R)Our friend's son Nate, cousins Brian and Evan, Brendan & Bryson.


The guys biked down the mountain...you start at the ski lodge and ride down, then a tram takes you back up and you can do it again. They said it was really fun.





Brendan, Kate, and of course Black Kitty and Smokey the Bear.

Aunt Shannon & Theodore (trying to hold his new bird with his neck), Ryan, Kate, Mom & Brendan.













Colton and cousin Charlton spending a few minutes in front of the Visitor's Center.

Kate holding onto Daddy's hand, smiling up at him.


Ryan conked out in Mom & Dad's bed.



I stuck this picture in just so you can see what it's like to take a picture of Kate! Ryan and cousin Everett are already being silly, and Kate just can't stand it and starts dancing...which she does A LOT!
