California Vacation !!!!

We were blessed to be able to spend our vacation this year with our family in California. Here are Cody, Kyle, & Dylan enjoying their stay at the Henricus Estate !! All the comforts of home, and then some !! They are outside watching a basketball game on TV !! Life is rough !!


Justin was VERY excited to see Uncle Denny !! He was showing his enthusiasm and Cody was just as thrilled to be there !!!


Boys and their toys !! Uncle James, Uncle Gary, Dennis & Cody bonding over their mutual love for toys !!


Aunt Diane finally able to get out of the kitchen and enjoy everybody being there....thank you, Gary & Diane for making us feel at home. We enjoyed our visit !!


Cousins, Travis & Kyle, playing pool.


Happy 50th birthday, Aunt Carol !!! Aunt Debbie is coming along in her recovery after her car accident, along with Uncle Don, Dennis & Cody watching Carol blow out her birthday candles.


Carter posing for the view of the pool. He loves the water, even when the water is less than inviting !!


AAhhh !!! Cousins, Kerri & Justin showing off their cake creation !!


We don't have an In-n-Out Burger in Idaho, so the boys (especially Cody) were thrilled to eat there on our way to Southern California !!


Uncle Dennis is getting a kick out of Aidan's (nephew) love for cell phones (and anything electronic !!)

I love this picture !! We were happy to be able to drive to Southern California and visit the Morton family. Here are the boys with their cousins, Koryn & Aidan. They enjoyed spending time with their little cousins.


Aunt Kameron didn't get to spend much time out of the kitchen while we were there, she was determined to send us all home with at least 2 extra pounds (she did that and then some !!) Thank you Paul & Kameron for a great visit, I just hate that it has to happen so seldom. We were blessed by our visit !!

Aunt Donna joined us on our trip to So. Cal. She loves playing with the children (yeah, we'll call it that !!) Sorry, Auntie....we couldn't resist posting this "cute" picture of you !! We love you !!!


We stopped by and visited Gram Dot for the day, that does not happen very often anymore.


We visited with the Lambert's, Uncle Paul & Cody were very serious about their chess match, I won't post who won !! The winner knows who he is (right, Uncle Paul ??!!)


Dylan catching some "air" in Uncle Brad & Aunt Diane's swimming pool !!!!


Carter trying to catch some "air" also, but ready to plug his nose before taking the plunge !!


We brought Justin home with us, he & Dylan are demonstrating what "whiners" they were becoming after spending SO many hours in the car !! We had a great time in California, we loved spending time with our family members, but we were happy to be home in Idaho again. Now, we are enjoying our visit with Justin here for 3 weeks !!
