I Don't Want To Be A Deason Anymore

One night, this summer, I made chicken stir-fry for dinner.  There was carrots and broccoli in the stir-fry.  Apparantly, that was all Jonathan could handle.  He decided that he didn't want to be a Deason anymore.  He notified us that he was moving out and going to live next door and become a Meiners. 
He packed his bag and ran away from home.

After 10-15 minutes Steve went next door to bring the runaway home. 

Jonathan wasn't excited to be back and to still be a Deason.

Check out the important things to a six year-old.  At least he took his pennies and socks. 

Mt. Lassen

The day after the 4th of July, we packed up for a day trip to Mt. Lassen.  We made a couple of stops in the park: the Sulfer Pots, Bumpass Hell (3 mile hike in snow slush).

Sophie was sick this day and made it known to all at the visitor's center while we were watching a video on volcanoes.  She threw up all over Steve.  Luckily, there are t-shirts for sell in the visitor's center.  Yay!!!

Poor, poor Jonathan.  He was so scared at the start of the hike because we were hiking a big bad volcano.  He really didn't want to go...

We all hiked, except for Sophie, who rode on mom's and dad's shoulders (mostly dad's)

We had a great time. 

A really, really, good time

 



4th of July 2012 - Lake Almanor

The fourth of July started off with our usual trip to Lake Almanor.  The morning of the 4th the Reno's and us Deason's went into Chester to see the parade. 
Then, fireworks at night on the Peninsula.
