Boston Miscellaneous

 Here are a few fun pictures from our trip that haven't been posted yet:

The girls with Uncle Kerry and Aunt Marianne
 Backyard Zipline

 (As much as Cailyn loved the zipline at Zion, she didn't like this one...she wasn't able to hold on well enough to feel secure.)


The girls loved playing with the dogs. Cailyn called the Hopkin's black lab, Micah, "Mike." She would walk around saying "Where's Mike?"
Rylee also loved Elena and Sofia's puppy, Maggie...


Pretty view on the flight home.
 Free entertainment on a cross-country Southwest flight (:


 Cailyn passed out towards the end of the second flight. We didn't change planes before the third flight, so before the new passengers boarded, Rylee spotted the pilot walking past us. She asked "Are you the pilot?" They got chatting, and before we knew it, he had invited her up to sit in the cockpit!
Captain Roy, Rylee, and Sella
I'm telling you, this girl's confidence will take her far in life; this is not the first time that her outgoing personality has gotten people to bend the rules for her, without her even asking! OK, well sometimes she does ask...notice the bear. This bear belonged to Marianne, but Rylee loved it and named her "Sella". Then on our way out the door to the airport, she asked Marianne "Can I buy Sella?" Marianne accepted payment in the form of hugs and kisses, and needless to say, we left Needham with an extra bear.

Shortly afterwards, even the energizer bunny got tired and slept for most of the flight from Kansas City to San Diego.

We had such a fun trip! The girls are still talking about the trip two weeks later and saying things like "next time we go to Boston..."
It will be a while, but we'd love to have a next time (:
Thanks so much Marianne and Kerry!

Zip Line!

 The 2011 Clawson Family Reunion was in southern Utah at the Zion Ponderosa Resort, and oh was it fun! One of the favorite activities there was the zipline. I took tons of pictures of everyone going down, but I'm only going to post some of the ones I took of the McNamara clan...even with just our bunch there are a ton of pictures (you'll see why I had to include so many of them in a minute.)

 First the big kids went...

Colin

Cassie
 ...and then the littles took their turns!
Rylee was up first!






Then Cailyn!



 I had to include most of the pictures of Cailyn so you can see her legs.
As she said, "Mommy, I kick, kick, kicked my legs!







Happy sisters after their first ride!

Walking back for another ride...


 On your mark...get set...KICK!!!















Walking back with Uncle Colin

Can you see Cailyn's tongue? That's one happy girl!
Avery came along next.



Payton, Rylee, Avery, Cailyn. Thumbs up! (I LOVE Cailyn's version of thumbs up!)

Love miss Avery.


 We came back a couple days later at night time for another ride. Rylee climbed the rock wall while waiting to get harnessed up.
 And this time Ava came along! She had been napping the first time, and nobody thought she would want to go anyway...she's not typically the adventurous type. But she surprised us and said she wanted to do it this time.



 She was all smiles, no fear!
 After the girlies went, the moms took a turn.
Shellie, me, Katie.
So fun!
