Family Time

Each year John's brother Cris and his family usually take the opportunity to come visit in California. Since they are the only Garthe's that live out of state it only makes sense for them to come here. This year they came in September to be a part of Katelyn's blessing. While they were here we did a Mud Run in Riverside. It was so much fun!!!!

 All clean ready to start the race

 These slides were Awesome! One even had vegetable oil on it to help you slide better.

 They had a kids run that was the tale end of our course.
The kids really enjoyed walking through the muddy water.

 Nice and Muddy after the race

Then we stayed in Palm Springs for the week and hung out! It was a very nice week. We had big plans to go to the Children's Museum, do the Tram, and see the Living desert. But shortly after we booked the vacation we found out the the museum and tram were both closed for maintenance. Big Bummer! So we decided not to do the Living Desert Zoo either and we just spend the whole time swimming, playing games, and EATING!!! We had a blast!!!!!!

 

This was the waterside at the hotel it was really cool!
