Happy 4th of July!!

We spent the 4th of July in California with my Aunt's and their families. It was really fun!We spent the day swimming in their pool and then we had a BBQ and roasted Marshmallows in Erin's fire pit that she has by her pool and made some mores as Erin calls them. Then we went and watched fireworks that they shoot off over the lake that they live on. I also got to visit with my grandpa that is going down hill with his health very quickly. I was glad that I was able to spend sometime with him. But I had a really hard time when we said goodbye because I knew this was the last time I would see him. So it was a really good trip, we really enjoyed ourselves. Thank you Erin and Tom for putting up with us for the last 10 days, we love you!
Addison roasting Marshmallows, she didn't get very close as you can see.
My girls putting their mellows really close to the fire, not.

2 days at Disneyland, exhausting but fun!!

We just spent two days at disneyland, usually we only do one. It was a lot of fun, but we were definately pooped when it was over. Addison loved it this time. Her favorites were the Finding Nemo ride, Small world, Winnie the pooh and the carousel which we had to ride 4 times. She was so much fun to watch. The kids always love going so we go everytime we are in Cali. Here are a few pictures of how much fun we had at disneyland, Enjoy.

Having fun at Aunt Erin's!

So I decided I will probably never see my other camera again, so I gave in and bought a new one before we went to California. So now I have all these pictures that I can put on my blog and keep up with what we are doing now.

Here is Brenden on the skimmer in Erins pool, getting ready to get on it. If anyone doesn't know what a skimmer is, it is something they use to get little kids us to waterskiing before they put them on two real skis. He is up on it and doing really good.

He loves it and now we just have to get him out on the boat with it and he will be waterskiing.

Here is Brooklyn thinking about getting on the skimmer, but chickens out and doesn't do it.
