California Vacation Part 1

When we found out Brad was going to be starting a new job, we knew it was going to be a long time until we would have the chance to take the kids on a Vacation. So we decided to pack up and head to California for a weekend getaway. We took Hailey with us and we had so much fun. We stayed down the street from Redondo Beach, boogie boarded at Huntington Beach, and got to see Auntie Beth. We had such a great time with the kids. I am so grateful we got to go!

All of us sporting our sunglasses!

 

Andy loved watching the waves

Of course we had to go to Chucky Cheese!

 

 

We went to some fancy place totally wet after boogie boarding :)

 

On the way home from the beach everyone was tired and happy! Such a fun cozy ride!

Solar Eclipse

When a solar eclipse comes around, we take is seriously! We drove out to the sweet spot to get the best view of it! We spent the day playing and hanging out together. I didnt get any really cool pictures, but you get the idea. It was fun teaching and having fun with the kids.

Our Little camp at the sweet spot

 

 

 Everyone huddled in the shade, it was really hot!

 

 

The best picture I had of it with my phone

Water Park

When it's over 100 degrees in St. George we spend lots of time at the Free water parks. The kids love to go with Grandma Bankhead!

Trip to Vegas

We decided to take a little trip to Las Vegas with the kids. We stayed at the Golden Nugget down on Fremont Street. We of course had to eat at Joes Crab Shack while we were there, its our kids favorite! We played, swam, and went to the M&M factory! It was a great time!
