Trek

Grandma came back from Visalia with us so she could watch the kids while Bob, Danny and I went on our stake's Pioneer Trek.  It was super hot that weekend in Utah, where we did the trek.  But we still had a great time and really bonded with our trek families. We love these kids!

Basketball Tournament in CA

We brought Grandma back with us when we came home from Visalia.  And we got back just in time for Danny and Bob to turn around and drive back to CA for a basketball tournament.  This is pretty much the only tournament Danny's team travel's to (we love that they mostly just do the local tournaments) and we've never made it there.  So this year Danny really wanted to go.  Bob and Danny got to have a nice boys weekend.  They stayed at Kristal's house about 30 minutes from the tournament.  They had a game Friday night and Saturday night.  So Saturday morning they got to go to the beach. They also found some awesome places to eat.  After the Saturday game they raced home so Danny could go to the last 2 hours of the stake dance with his friends.

15th Anniversary

Bob and I went to Cambria for our Anniversary.  We toured Hearst Castle, went for a bike ride into town for some French pastries, watched the seals and ate at some great restaurants. The weather was a little cold, but we had a nice, lazy weekend.

Visalia

A few days after school got out we went to Visalia to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa.  Bob and I left for a few days for our Anniversary and then Bob flew home and I stayed with the kids for the week.  We had a great time shopping and swimming and going to the arcade.  The kids hit some major jackpots there so it made it exciting. We also finally got to take Bob to Superior Dairy in Hanford.  We did boys against girls this time.  The boys took it seriously and downed their ice cream fast.

Sports and Dance

Danny played basketball for his school intramural team and continues to play for his year-round club team, the Ballerz.  Aaron and Seth played soccer in the new league that plays at the Dinosaur park just around the corner.  They both loved it.

Ruby and Rachel did dance at Sole Intensity again this year.  It's such a cute little studio and they girls look so great at their recital.  Rachel did Jazz and Ruby did tap and ballet. Sandy and May came to the recital again and Grandma Zonda was in town and got to come too!

Memorial Day in Castaic

We went to Ryan and Venessa's for Memorial Weekend.  We went to the beach by ourselves on the first day because everyone else had work and school.  We had a great time boogie boarding and playing.  Aaron ate too much junk food, once again, and threw up in the rocks. Danny hit a sneaky squirrel in the head with a rock by accident.  He didn't bother us again!

The next day all the cousins and Grandma and Grandpa joined us at the beach.  We had a great time. Sunday we had our regular vacation church family testimony meeting.  Grandma and Grandpa came with us for that. We walked to the HOA and went on a hike.
