Big Bear Trip With Old Friends

We've been taking an annual trip with our friends from college since 2004 I believe...Has it really been 9 years!? We all rented a great and family friendly cabin in Big Bear fully equip with 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms..one with a leaky shower, a pool table...that our kids thoroughly enjoyed, Foosball and a hot tub. It was a full house! We shared meals, played games, went on outings, had long talks and prayer with each other and made some really special memories with our kiddos...We are officially out numbered. 10 adults...11 kiddlettes. 

On Friday we took the kids to Woodland Trail close to Big Bear Lake. It was a  1 1/2 Mile Interpretive Loop...presented by Uncle Jonesy in a very game show host 
voice sort of way. Lots of fun and interesting facts about the vegetation on this trail.

The kids love Uncle Jonesy and thinks he's just the Bees Knees!

 Best Buddies...especially in a sea of boys!

The kids loved being outside and exploring
