California!

Days 1-3:

Days 1 and 2 I didn't take a single picture.  It was mostly filled with driving, so kind of boring.  We left Thursday afternoon around 4:00 and headed to St. George to stay with Nolan and Treo for the night.  We got there around 9:00 or so, and chatted for a bit before heading to bed.  We woke up, got dressed, and headed out.  We drove the rest of the way to Anaheim, and got there around 2:30, California time.  We were all so excited to be getting out of that car!  The first thing we did was get into our suits and went swimming.  Brett and Kallie showed up about an hour later, and came to the pool.  Brenda, Steve, Chloe, and her friend had all been there for a few days already, and came down to swim too.  Then we hung out for a bit until Dale, Shauna, and Natalie's flight got in, and we went to the Spaghetti Factory for dinner.
The next day, Saturday, everyone except for me and my kids got up and went to the Utah/UCLA game.  This was the main reason for the trip.  I took the kids swimming, and then to lunch at McDonald's, and then Leila and Nixon both napped until everyone came back from the game.  The Utes lost, but they had fun anyway!  We walked over to Downtown Disney and had dinner there.  I got a couple of pictures of Saturday, and stole some that Brock took at the game.


Here is Jace after swimming and lunch.  He wanted to take a nap, and said he was a s'more.  The pillows are the crackers, the blanket is the chocolate, and he is the marshmallow!



Beautiful day for football!
Making wishes at Downtown Disney.
We found some pretty cool things made out of Legos at the Lego store.  Here's Nix with Hulk
And Leila with Beauty and the Beast
Then Leila wanted one with "Hulk Smash" as the kids call him
After dinner, the kids wanted their jackets put on backwards.  These are their faces
And their backs.  Silly kids.
