We just got back from camping this Memorial Weekend with our friends the Boeger's and Thornton's. The kids had so much fun playing outside practically the whole time.
The Daddies taking the kiddos fishing...
Madison was so excited! She casts pretty good too.
Kennedy loved it too. She doesn't have the longest attention span waiting for the fish, but she loves the rest of it.
Evan and his girls...
Our little buddy, Gavin. He loved fishing too!
Kennedy striking a pose with little Sam-o.
Maddie waiting and waiting for the fish to take the hook. She wanted to reel it in so bad....
The kids had a hard time waiting, so they would take little breaks while the Daddy's kept fishing.
Waking up.... Maddie & Sam watching Veggie Tales together. Sam is such a cuddler!
Kennedy and Emma having big girl time playing video games.
Movie night after smores watching "UNDERDOG"!

The 2nd time fishing Kennedy finally caught the first and only fish! That made her so happy!

On Thurs. last week my friend, Glenda and I surprised Kennedy & Emma to tickets to the High School Musical Tour at the Paramount in Seattle. We went out for dinner to the Cheesecake Factory first then on to the show. It was so fun! The kids were so excited and we had the best night!
Goofy girls!


Kennedy and I during intermission.
You can see how much fun the girls had!

Our little Madison turned 5 last weekend. Here are a few of the party we had outside. It was a warm and perfect night! Here is Maddie showing you her glittery star Auntie CeCe (my sister Liz) on her cheek.

Mark, Liz, and Dad sitting by the fire.
The kids had a blast playing in the bouncy house, and swing set area.

The pergola is done! My Uncle Rich helped Evan work on it last week and weekend. A week later.... it's done. Evan just set up the outdoor furniture that I've had for over a year. So we are ready for some warm nights by the fire. Wanna join us? :-)

Disneyland! Wow, what a long day it was. The girls had so much fun. The lines were really long though. We are going back tomorrow to try to do a few more rides.
This is the excited look on their faces when we started on the rides.
Maddie was so excited to see her favorite Disney Character, Ariel from Little Mermaid.
Waiting in more lines.....
and more lines.....

After an hour wait in line for Splash Mtn. they were still in good spirits. :-) What a fun day!

What a fun day with our friends the Boegers today. Drove 20 min. to the San Diego Zoo.
Kennedy loves flamingos.
We rode the double decker bus for a tour around the zoo.

Gavin did so good. He loved the bus ride and anything in the water. :-)
The Orangutans were hilarious. Very entertaining.....
2 hippos were chasing each other back and forth in front of the kids.
Madison & Gavin LOVED the turtles....
The Polar Bear was hiding up above so we couldn't see him, so we got a picture here of the statues. The kids have been having so much fun together. Gavin is like a little brother.

Happy 2nd Birthday Gavin! We met Aaron & Melissa today in San Clemente, CA. They stayed with Aaron's sister, Kristy for a couple days until we got in last night. They will then stay with us in our timeshare in Oceanside, CA for the rest of the week. We met at the beach for a BBQ & relaxing in the sun. The kids had a ball in the sand and splashing in the ocean. What a great day to start off our week in Cali.
Two little buddies. Maddie just LOVES her Gavie!

Look at those baby blue's!

Kristy Boeger helping burying Madison in the sand. She thought this was so much fun.

A long day at the beach and a full tummy from the Fisherman's Restaurant...... a perfect day!
