Just Hanging Out In CA

After today's post, only two more from our epic summer trip!  Here are a few pictures from hanging our with Grandma, Rhonda, Ruthie, Greg, Jen, and Jeff.

The girls made lemonade from the lemons they picked from a tree in the backyard.  Once they added some water and sugar it was pretty good!



They had a blast! 


Natalie picked a beautiful bouquet of roses.










Roby, the kids and I at at In-N-Out for the first time while we were there.


Ethan and Jeff decided to play with Air Soft guns.  They geared up and were ready to go.






















 One evening we all went out to dinner.











I know most of you know, but when we left California, the kids stayed there with Grandma.  This was the FIRST time I've left them for more than three nights.  We were all excited and nervous.  I tried really hard not to cry, and managed not to until Roby and I drove away.  I knew they would have a great time, but I knew they'd be there for several weeks and I wouldn't know what to do with myself!  (They ended up staying for five whole weeks!)  Grandma took them to swim lessons (something they both greatly needed), a local fun park, and all kinds of other things!  They had an amazing time!!!
