Whirlwind Week

We had such a fantastic trip. It was really, really nice to spend some time together. We've missed Josh during his long work hours the past few weeks. This was a wonderful break from all of that.

I need to collect photos from my dear sisters and father. We actually didn't take a ton. But I'll post some of them here now and probably post more at a later date.

Fun as that trip was, it was exhausting and it was good to get home. :-)
The three big kids LOVED every roller coaster that they were allowed on (Logan was too short for a few). If asked his favorites, he has a long list but Space Mountain is definitely at the top.

Splash Mountain was also popular.

The girls were able to go on California Screamin' at the California Adventure park. That is a real roller coaster that goes upside down and everything! They did it twice and thought it was fabulous.

While the big kids were doing their thing with Josh and their two aunts, Kenna and I hit some of the smaller rides. She had pretty big eyes for most of them, but her favorite was definitely the carousel. She laughed and "giddyapped" the entire time. It was so cute!

On Wednesday we didn't go to the parks. We went to the Newport Beach Temple (beautiful!) and the Santa Ana Zoo in the morning. We swam in the afternoon and visited with Uncle Dennis and Aunt Phyllis (and my parents and sisters) for dinner. What a fun little reunion that was!

The picture are absolutely great! It looked like you guys had so much fun. The kids looked like they were having more fun than Josh and Jason did the first time we took them on Space Mountain. Love you guys.

Great week to miss work! Nice timing. I hope he's that good on timing the stocks, too. ;) So far, so good!

I'm glad you got some fun in the sun. You guys work hard, and a little fun is good for you!
