California here we come!!

We've been trying to figure out a way to get down to California for a visit since we were there last November. It's difficult to get away so we decided we'd go down conference weekend. Dustin had Friday off so we took our sweet time traveling to Cali. We were so excited to get away for a little mini Va-cay!

After a few errands we were on our way...I was hoping for a Red Bull but all they had were Monsters. From the back seat we heard Scott say... "Dad, I want some of your Pepsi."
Dustin said, "I don't have any Pepsi."
and then Scott said, "NO Dad, that SCARY Pepsi!"
On the road...

I'm pretty sure I have a picture of each of my kids when they were babies wearing these glasses at Grandma and Grandpa Great's house.
I love it! He would make an adorable nerd.
Dustin reading Grandma's People magazines. Check out his face...
Looks like a good read.
I had to take his picture since his varied expressions were killing me.
Grandpa in his favorite chair.
Building a pyramid out of Lego's.

One of Grandma's huge roses..they were beautiful and Madison took lots of pictures of all of grandma's flowers.
Here's more from the backyard.
On Sunday Dustin's grandparents were having more family over since it was conference so I guess we picked a great weekend to visit.
Chloe came in and gave them a huge hug. She's so sweet!
They both LOVE Chloe!
This bunch was so much fun! The girls love getting together with their cousins.
Free wagon rides.
One of Scott's favorite pastimes.
Goofs.
Riley...isn't she cute!

We had a really nice kick-back weekend. It's always nice to get away!

Love the pics! I really like the daisies, very cool. The "scary pepsi" comment is hilarious, as they say "out of the mouths of babes". Love your family! :)
