More Fun in the Sun

It takes so long to upload pictures to Blogger, I'm surprised I made it through all these! Here are the last bunch of pictures from our time in California. We road-tripped from California to Stanley, ID on Wednesday (yes, you read that right). We rented a car in Orange County and made the 15 hour drive. Because we had the boys and had to stop so often (and because of a tiny wrong turn I made) it took us closer to 18 hours.

But Jack and Cullen did SO WELL!! We couldn't believe it! Cullen didn't make a peep the entire drive, he was such a trooper! And Jack, true to his strong-willed self, was a little fussy and certainly put up a fight when we strapped him into his carseat time after time but overall he did great too. Driving for 18 hours with these boys was infinitely easier and less stressful than flying for 6 hours. Go figure- I guess they love the open road!

We got into Stanley late on Wednesday night and have been catching up on sleep and relaxing ever since. We are so excited to be here! I'll be posting pictures from Idaho soon but for now, here are some from Cali.

Sweet Violet

Brandon arrived on Thursday and we had a really fun date night on Friday.
I missed him so much!

Beach day!

Playing with big boy toys at my Aunt and Uncle's house

Enjoying a juicy peach by the pool

Swimming with Uncle Jon

The boys kept pointing to Violet and saying "dat!"
But they would kiss her sometimes too and that just melted all of our hearts!

Auntie Anna looks like she's got her hands full!

A very happy Aunt!

The boys loved Violet's bouncer

Feeding the ducks

Except Jack and Cullen ate most of the food instead of throwing it to the ducks :-)
