California trip 2008

Luckily Taylor had Devon to go on this ride with...no one else would!


School's out...time to head to CA! We stopped at Justin's in Las Vegas...Kelly and I stayed up all night laughing...can you see the tears!
The girls went to Knott's Berry Farm...it didn't start off well when Taylor got kicked off the first ride because she had a cast. The lady said the force of the ride may "re-fracturate your arm" Taylor got smart and wore her sweatshirt the rest of the day to hide her arm even though it was quite hot! Considering that Taylor LOVES rollercoasters...it could have been a very bad day!
Toronto was playing in CA so dad got us tickets to the Angels game. We had lots of fun!


The Jays lost but daddy was cheering because the long game was finally over...he had just flown in from Japan and was tired!


the 'easy' horse ride turned out a little terrifying. What a shock for mom!
We had to wait FOREVER for the lame bumper cars!

On our way to California we came upon a drunk driver and called him in....they actually caught up with him 25 minutes later...we were in the middle of no where. Our whole car was cheering!
Our happy car ride...we started the trip at Build-a-bear to celebrate summer and emmy's 1st birthday. We also went to Olive Garden in St. George for their birthday dinner....they are the most spoiled bears ever!
While the girls went to Knotts, the boys went to see Indina Jones and buy new legos. (they were supposed to go to Lego Land, but when Daddy realized how far away it was, he chose this activity instead! ) They had a blast! Derek said it was the best day of his life because he got a big ship!
Bryan couldn't get over this box!
We talked mom in to one big ride! Hilarious!)
Kelly used Evon's trick and rubberbanded cereal to her legs. Bryan had to pretend he was helping his pregnant wife while Kelly dropped cereal! We were all crying it was so funny!


It was bat day! Oh boy!




The kids wanted grandpa ashby to sign their balls :)
Bryan loved the rally monkey and 'jumped around' to the song!
guitar hero at evon's is a tradition



who's the 3rd wheel??
The boys had so much fun 'surfing' at the beach!


We played the most ridiculous/violent game of spoons...it ended up Bryan and Kimmy....Bryan won and Kimmy was bleeding!
Baseball in evon's backyard...everyone had to keep yelling at Zacky because he was being too competitive....really??

End of school dance festival



Zacky got to dance to Thriller....I showed him the real Thriller video the night before and he just stared and smiled. Next morning he was all in to it! :) Taylor shook her thang too for the 4th grade dance!

End of school gifts from mommy and daddy

Zacky got Indiana Jones legos and a real tie (with baseball bats on it)...he's still LOVIN legos!

Taylor got real desks for bunny school for getting all A's in the 4th grade this year!

END OF SCHOOL


Grandma Drexie and Pop-pop sent Taylor and Zacky a DS for their end of school gift! Quite possibly the best day of their lives!

Baseball Party




We had a team party after we beat the Devil Rays! They were SO excited!

Bridal Veil Falls









We hiked to Bridal Veil Falls. The girls brought their bunnies and Zacky dressed like Indiana (look how he even unbuttons his shirt!). He was so excited because a guy rode past us and actually said "hi, Indiana!" :) He also picked up a big slimy worm to prove how tough he was, but later said he felt like he was going to puke!
