this past weekend erick
and nicky generously invited us to spend a couple nights with them up in
mammoth. it was so beautiful and the perfect, quick getaway.
the highlight for me was going to the hot springs. it was pretty magical. and of course getting away alone with ruben. that is always a treat.

I always love your photos!
ReplyDeletethank you :D what a nice compliment!
DeleteBeautiful photos, I love the one of you in the tree, you look like a happy kid in there.
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOD!!!!! these pictures are so beautiful. i love reading your and nicki's posts because i get to catch glimpses of the other side of california. these pictures are so wonderful, i can almost feel that warm dusk air.
ReplyDeletehow have i never been to those hot springs??!! soooo gorgeous, you guys look like you're in an absolute dreamworld. are they right by mammoth? and you have the cutest little babe there, i love that you call it getting away alone together with ruben even though you have marianne, a good sign that she is a perfect child :)
ReplyDeleteyes, they are right off 395. you have to go next time you are there!
Deletemmmm hmmm i love me some hot springs. i'm with heather in wondering where they are? you look so beautiful in your sundress and baby marianne's smile is good for what ails ya. so glad you had such a perfect get away!
ReplyDeleteThat looks so serene and beautiful. Boy Maryanne's hair sure is getting long. Love love love that pic of her on the tree stump. Like Brigit said, I never really knew this part of California existed. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThese images are magical Anne! I LOVE love love the shot of you in the trees. I get a kick out of how you and Ruben consider time with Maryanne "alone time" too. Also, how does she just keep getting cuter?! Glad to hear you got to enjoy this fun getaway :)
ReplyDeletewell, when you have 4 children, one seems like almost alone. plus she is a baby. the other kids listen (and understand) our every word, so talking together or having a conversation can get difficult. so for those reasons it feels like alone. obviously we still have to watch and take care of her but it's a million times more relaxing than with the whole fam there :D
Deleteanne, these pictures are so beautiful!! California looks like a beautiful place to be. Looks like fun was had by all!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou and your amazing trips! SO inspiring! I think the hot springs look perfect!
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful pictures of your beautiful country, and the shot of you in the trees is gorgeous, and little Maryanne looks an utter delight: ) xE
ReplyDeletewhat a beautiful escape! thank you for posting!
ReplyDeleteI love you guys. You make life look so fun. And that shot of you in the tree. Perfect. In the best possible way.
ReplyDeleteps. You're like the one reason I finally caved and bought a hair straightener. From goodwill's green tags half off sale for, oh, 1.25, but still....;)
Oh and laughing at your and missa's exchange. Awesome. I really want me a Maryanne.
ReplyDeletehow fun! Crazy we were just a few miles away and didn't even know it. These hot springs look amazing. How fun. And the pictures are gorgeous. Love the one of you and Ruben too!
ReplyDeleteI love your photos and that burgundy dress!
