Holy Post!

Ok so clear back in May we were able to go to California with Dax's family. And being the great procrastinator that I am, I decided that it's about time to post the pictures from it. We had a lot of fun. Dax and I haven't been on much of a Vacation since we got married so it was nice to get away. So here is an overload of pictures for you!

So we flew to California (thanks to a wonderful aunt who works for jet blue and gets awesome deals!) I can't even imagine trying to drive that far with Ryan. He struggles when we dirve to Ogden. Let's just say he is a very active child and if he's not running, he's not happy. Anyways, since everyone else drove we ended up getting to the place we were staying quite a while before everyone else. Since the reservations weren't in our names we couldn't go in. It was hard too, because it was Sunday and we couldn't do much. So we found a nice patch of grass with a tree and did what we could to entertain a toddler.


Ryan sliding down the windshield of the car.

Making faces on the window. (and yes it was a rental car...don't tell)

This is my favorite. Every time Dax put his head in the leaves he would pull this dang cute little face.

The two cutest boys EVER!

He loved just sitting on the tree branch. Until he tried to climb higher and we discovered thorns...oops! What kind of tree has thorns anyways!?!

While in California we got to go to Legoland. It was a lot of fun. Ryan could only go on like 5 rides, but he still seemed to have fun. As long as he can run wild, he's pretty happy. there was one place he absolutely loved. It was a room where there were foam balls constantly shooting around the room. You could load a machine and push a button and they would shoot out the top. Also, there were guns on the top level that you could shoot at the people below. For some reason everytime I went in that silly place I was the target for all of the children. I don't know how many times I got hit in the head with those balls. Those kids were dang good shots!


I think we tired Dad out!

Going on a boat ride. Can you tell the sun was in our eyes?

These cars weren't moving or anything, but Ryan just loves steering wheels.

Every time Dax spun this boring thing, Ryan thought it was hilarious. Whatever makes you happy I guess...

Playing at the splash pad

Well I just decided I am tired so I think I will add another big post tomorrow about our trip to the beach. Plus I'm sure if you are still reading this you are pretty bored, but I like showing off my family :)

Looks like a fun trip! And Legoland looks like lots more fun with little kids- we went with my family and the youngest was 15, not so fun :)

I would love to go on walks with you, but the thing is I don't have a triple stroller for all 3 boys during the day. (And Clay won't walk very long.) We could do evenings if you're interested.. I did see in the roll on Sunday that there is a walking group at 7am - that's too late for me, tho, I'd have to go at like 5:30 in the morning. :( Let me know!!

You have the cutest little family! I can't believe how much Ryan has grown...and I'm so excited for your next babe. Oh, and don't worry about your baby being super active in utero...Kelly was crazy active and I was worried about how she was going to be on the outside. But she's pretty chill and was a really good baby as well.

How fun, I hope I can go to Cali some time. I am glad you got to get away! I love to go on vacation because it makes me miss my home after a few days.
