Camp Grandma Cissy's & Big Daddy's

The kiddos just recently had their annual visit to my parents house for a summer "camp".
Of course, the kids had a blast - even though it RAINED MOST of the time (AGAIN!)...

The boys enjoyed jamming out to Guitar Hero!

Here's Cortheye painting a sun catcher - for when the sun decides to make an appearance!

It stopped raining for a few hours, so we ran and set up the water slide.
Cylas seems to really be having a BLAST!

The rain broke for a little bit to even set up a Lemonade Stand!

We got to go visit some sweet friends of ours!
Here's Ally with Lexi's Hannah Montana gear on!
And.....

Baby Makenna!

We even had fun tie-dying T-shirts!
Here's Cortheye looking a little skeptical!

Cooper even tie-dying a wash rag!!

Lexi...

And Cylas!

The girls put on a "Fashion Show" and some type of Dance Routine!

We ALL had a SUPER fun time!
Everyone was SO sad when it was over!!!

Headed to Cali!!

San Diego Zoo

We had the pleasure of going to the San Diego Zoo! We had two-day passes, but only made it to one... there is SO much to see, you really need at least two days! We ALL LOVED the koalas and pandas - they were SO SWEET looking!!
The weather was PERFECT!
So,... we are ready to go back!!

Disneyland

Laguna Beach

We got to enjoy a day at Laguna Beach! It was absolutely breath-taking and SO very different than Huntington Beach! I DID wonder where all the people were, and it was crowded, but it still felt a little secluded. It was AWESOME!

While in Cali, we went to Huntington Beach! It was SO amazing and everything I thought a "California Beach" would be like! There were TONS of people there, lots of waves, and a ton of fun! We all had a GREAT time!!!

Here is more of Joan's house!!
It was AMAZING - we woke up every AM and picked
oranges and peaches for breakfast!!
Then we could pick tomatoes later for our salad -
just DON'T TOUCH THE LEMON TREES!!
It really was amazing!!
