A few days in San Diego...

After our Brea time with all the sisters and little girlies/boys, we headed down to San Diego to spend a little time with my family.  It was a blast!

Highlights:
-Seeing Cody pole vault TWICE in one week!  And he did awesome!  (He actually metaled at CIF Finals today!!!  6th place boo yah!!)
-Seeing Jayce's baseball game...little kid baseball games are so hilarious
-Exercise and shopping trip with my Mom!!  We got to go to Nordstrom and we found one of our favorite shoe stores and we found a Mrs. Field's cookies!  Best day ever am I right?
-Billy and Jayce exploring the hills behind our house armed with airsoft guns and a bow and arrow.
-Skyping with Derek on Mother's day!
-Eating salmon on Mother's day (yes, it was that memorable!)
-Going out to lunch with my parents twice
-Eating Mom's Texas sheet cake
-Running my normal run (I hate/love that run)
-and that's pretty much it...we did a lot of relaxing and watching movies :)

Here are some pictures.  Cody pole vaulting and flying over bar (not sure what height this is):

Flying!!

Jayce's game:

In the outfield...

 Billy exploring with Jayce (notice his quiver made out of a palm frond...Billy had fun helping him make that.  So cute.  That's our house down there)

Talking with Derek!

Me creepily taking a nap with my eyes open!!  Look how scary that is!!!!!!!  Had to include this because its so weird.

That's all the pictures I have.  It was such a fun trip!  Thanks to my parents for letting us stay and hang out with us and feed us so much delicious food!  I love my family!  After San Diego we made our way back to Arizona, where we are here to stay.

California Fun

We did a beach day one day...so fun with the little girlies!

Jumping over waves

The bebes

Cute sisters chatting in the sand...

Mermaids!

More wave jumping

Ceci got buried

 Sand angels

I can't get enough of this face...like really- so cute!

Chasing birds with Ceci...very tiring believe it or not

Ceci doing her tired point.  She starts pointing at something, then forgets what it is and her hand slowly drifts straight up.  Hilarious.

We also had a day where we played with water balloons and guns in the front yard.

Shooting each other at very short range...

All the girls attacking Billy

Everyone shooting Billy...hahah I love this picture

Water balloon filling station...Maddison was thirsty and yes Whitney is in her underwear.  These girls crack me up.

Then we turned on the sprinklers!  I love this picture so much haha!

Ceci was loving this game where I would pull her finger out of her nose and then she would just stick it right back in.

What we would look like as a little family... so fun!

Also while we were there we ate a lot of mexican food, watched a lot of He-Man, played a lot of different little girl games, ran around a ton, and ate a lot of treats.  Man it was the best!!  We miss all the little girlies so much.  Especially Jody and her girls who are now to Dubai!  Crazy crazy!  More random pics:

Whitney grabbing her toys in her hoodie towel

Ceci enjoying some popcorn on Billy's lap...she can really down popcorn!

Sierra and Whit lookin coolio in our glasses :)

So fun!

Arizona to California!

We spent a few days in Arizona playing with the little girlies and Kara who was in town with Scarlett and Grayson!  We also were able to help Jody get ready to move to Dubai.  It was tons of fun playing with Maddison and little Ceci.  They are both so fun.  After a couple days of crazy packing and prep, we headed to California to spend some time with Jenny and her girls!

Getting some sweet Grayson time in...

The morning before driving to California we went to Joe's Farm Grill for breakfast...yum!  It was so fun.  The little kids are so fun.  I stole some of these pictures from Jody...thanks Jody!

Scarlett loves bacon.  She told us so by saying "ooooooh bacon!" in her deep adorable voice :)

Showing Grammy her "feashers"

Scarlett...so cute

Kisses for Grayson!  I love this one.

Brother sister conversation...

All the cousins minus the California ones...so sweet

All the kids and their kids or lack of kids...Ceci's face is so cute!

More sweet Grayson time...he's so cute! 

Then we were off to California!  The drive went really well...both Madds and Ceci are good travelers.

In California we got to do so many fun things!  We started out with a free trip to Disneyland!  Woohoo!  It was a blast.

Sierra was so brave and went on Tower of Terror with us!  You can tell from the ride picture that she wasn't too thrilled about it though haha.  It was so funny, when the ride ended she was talking really softly and saying how scary it was, and then as soon as she stood up she started bragging about how it was scary but she was brave.  Haha so cute.

Me being a mom...

Carter holding time... this is him the one second he wasn't wiggling!

Ceci's crazy hair!  And my tired face...

It was such a fun day!  I'm so glad we were able to go with all the kids...it was a blast.  I'll do another post with more of our California fun!
