Summer
It is summer time and we have been so busy. Time really does fly by while you are having fun. The beginning of summer began with a visit from relatives. Tori and her boyfriend, Johnny, and Todd and gang. It was so great to see the kids all love hanging out together. Nikki and Henry hung out a lot more while Justin and Megan were together. Guess the personalties matched perfectly.
The kids just were so happy playing/swimming at Grammy’s the entire time. Johnny and Tori bought the kiddos lots of pool toys and they had a blast.
We did go on an RV trip together. We went to Dogwood in the mountains and Point Mugu in Malibu. Dogwood was beautiful but a bit boring for the kids. The gopher they saw occupied them for a while. In Malibu the kids just played together on the beach and in the water. We saw dolphins and sea lions, so cool!
Here are some pics:
Henry is really into knights so we went to Medieval times as well. The kids loved it. They were cheering for their knight like it was real. I think this was the first time N&J have really seen any knight thing.
We also went to Irvine Regional Park. The kids rode on horses-loved it! Then we took the Sanders gang to the Orange County Zoo. The kids wanted a sleepover with their cousins. So we made up Grammy’s family room floor with 4 “beds”. The kids all got cozy and watched a movie. After Bret and I went home we got a call that Nikki wanted to come home. So I went and saved her. Justin was still wide awake when I got to Grammy’s-I think it was around 11:00pm and he kept saying I am awake but then I read him a book or two and he was off to sleep. I was a little worried that Justin would wake up without Nikki and be a little sad. Nope he got up (no one made it in the family room but him) and just joined the family. The kids were in the pool that day from 8:00AM until 6:00PM, it was crazy.
