Bike Rides

Our fun friends Cody, Makay, and Leah stopped by one Sunday afternoon to give us all a ride on there super fun bikes. They got quite the workout pulling us around the neighborhood!

Evie all dressed up

I wouldn't exactly call Evie a "girly" girl but she does love to dress up.  She is constantly putting on anyone's shoes she can find, necklaces, scarves, etc.  She especially likes to get into Kash's closet and get his easy-to-reach underwear that is on the bottom shelf.  Maybe she will start a new trend?

Part 3

On Memorial Day we went to the LA County Zoo.  Our kids had never been to the zoo before so they loved every second of it. This zoo is the perfect size because you can see everything in a few hours.  We were able to walk through the whole thing before we had any major melt downs! It was VERY hot but we survived. 
Kash and Ella were in the stroller more than Evie was!
Papa was the best help with the babies.
Evie says, "Papa" so cute.
The gorillas were the best.  They would come right up close and stare at you.
Trying to get a good view.
Liddy, Nana, Evie, Matt
Taking a much needed break.
This poor girl was guzzling the water.
Ella had a great seat.
Of course we had to get ice cream cones.
Evie loved swinging on the railing.
You have to really watch these two...they are constantly stealing each others toys and Evie is quite a bit bigger...one might even call her a bully.
Love these three cuties.
Thanks Aunt Whitney for the oreo.
Nana and Evie spotted a helicopter.
I'm so grateful I had Nikki and Mandy on this trip! They helped out so much!

The whole group!


Part 2

We went to the park one day and also played tennis while we were there.  The kids had so much fun on the playground and the big kids LOVED playing tennis.  It was a lot of fun.

Papa and Liddy
 
Kash, Matt, Ella

Kash was so afraid to step off the ledge onto this, but once he did it he realized it wasn't a big deal.
Matt had a very important job of holding the purses.
Nikki literally waited in line for a turn on this thing.
She tried to balance on the curb...not a good idea.
Evie is obsessed with Bailey and says, "BayBay."
Kash loves all things sports.
Papa and Nana know what they're doing on the court!
Poor Bailey was dragged around the court by all the kids.

Mandy, Liddy, Whitney

California Trip: Part 1

 For Memorial weekend we went to California to visit my family.  Mandy and Nikki met at my house and then we headed to Glendora.  The weather did not cooperate the first couple of days so we were not able to go to the beach:(  So two nights in a row we went over to the Jackson's to hot tub! It was so fun and of course the kids ended up getting in the freezing pool anyways!
 Ryan, Liddy, Kash, Mandy, Ella, Matt, Evie, Lindsay
 Ryan lovin on his sweet baby!


 It didn't take Matt long to get in the cold water with them.
 Evie and Liddy hanging out together.
 
 Ella and Kash decided they wanted to jump off the wall.  You can see Ella is a little nervous at first but they ended up going up 2 more levels! They have no fear in the water.

Who needs a pool?

Not us.
