California here we CAME.....

Mackenzie, Easton and I spent a week in California with Tyler, Danielle and Emree. They are living in Irvine, close to Tyler's family for six months and Tyler is selling Food Storage. We flew into Long Beach airport and were greeted by this:



Yeah, just that was worth the whole trip.... We sorta made the decision at the last minute. Unfortunately Reid had to stay home to take care of his fields and his flocks.... but we went without him and missed him the whole time. We loved seeing where Danielle and Tyler are spending their time these days. We did lots of fun things. We drove straight from the airport to In & Out and had some deliciousness. The next day we went to Harry Potter, amazing Chinese food and took a ferry to Newport Beach. WE did a little sunbathing and sand castle building. I'm not sure Emree love's the beach, but she looks OH SO CUTE in her swimsuit....







The following day we all went to SEA WORLD. Mackenzie, Easton and I had been a couple of years ago when Danielle got married, but Tyler and Danielle had not been for YEARS. It was a fun day. We saw EVERY show but the pet one and only got a little sunburned....(sorry Emree...).












The next day was spent doing a little cleaning at Tyler's folks--his brother was returning from a mission in Estonia, and then off to the 'The Spectrum' for some shopping and eating. We got Emree a new sun hat so Danielle and Kenzie wanted one too....






Sunday we went to church with Danielle and Tyler and enjoyed meeting some of their friends. They sang in the choir!!! (GOOD JOB!) and their chapel is next door to the Newport Beach Temple.





That night we all went to the airport to welcome home TANNER....

Monday was spent on the beach! and a delicious barbeque at the Andre's to follow...





We loved every minute we spent with Tyler, Danielle and Emree and can't wait for our next visit...

Thanks for always being so good and taking so many pictures. You are great at documenting our lives. Thanks for coming and visiting. I needed you guys because you are my favorite! We had so so so much fun! Looking at those pictures just reminds me of how great that week was. I love you.

I just realized that I bought the same swimsuit Emree is wearing at the beach in the first pictures for Scarlet for next season! Great minds think alike!

Though Emree has some of the most killer bows I have ever seen.
