California Girls

 Last week June and I visited my sister, Stephanie, in California. We had such a blast!
You are probably wondering what that big, orange pumpkin is in doing in the background? It is a hot air balloon and was supposed to be avialable giving out free rides to the people who drove around for twenty minutes trying to find it! Sadly, when we arrived  with our carful of kids,the winds were too strong to take the balloon up. We were all pretty disappointed, but there was a playground nearby and we all played around for awhile.

 We also visited Pumpkin City! It was a fun little place that had rides and a circle full of pumpkins that was too picturesque to pass up. We had a lot of fun looking at pumpkins, taking pictures, and riding some rides! You will also notice in EVERY picture, June is not smiling once! She was having a fun time... I swear!

We had a fun time at Newport Beach. June LOVED to put het feet in the water and play in the waves! It was such a beautiful beach and we had such a great time! That would be June's first visit to a beach and I would say it was pretty successful!

 We got to go to the pool too. My sister has a pool about 1 minute away from their house. June loves her baths, so you all know she loved the pool too!This was her first pool expierence, so i am so glad that a lot of her firsts are going well! She loved to splash, eventhough it got all over her face and all in her mouth, she didn't seem to mind. 

I want to thank Steph and Blake for making it such a great and fun trip! I really appreciate everything you guys did to make the trip so much fun for us. I also want to thank Evy, Dane, and Grant for being such great cousins and taking such good care of June! We miss you all so much and can't wait to see you again soon. We love you!
