Our Trip in California

We had a good time in California and for the most part it was beautiful outside. It did rain a few days but it was still warm outside. We spent a lot of our time with Nick's family visiting & had multiple dinner dates. I had a great time getting to know them and was so happy they are got to meet the boys. Jim Nick's dad wanted to take the boys to Chucky Cheese so we could all do something together that everyone could enjoy. SO we decided to take them a few days into our trip after they napped and were well rested. We had such a good time letting loose and playing all the games. The boys absolutely love it their and never want to leave! What was nice about this one was it's a lot different then the one we have back in Alaska so the boys were able to explore new toys. We ended up staying for at least 3 hours and by the time we left everyone was more then ready, except of course the boys. Im really glad we all were able to go do something together as a family. It was a lot of fun and everyone had a smile on their face the whole time which was nice.







Towards the end of our trip Nick Matt the boys and I all went to six flags for a little fun. And man was it fun it was a freaking blast, the time of my life. That was our first time going and i was so grateful i got to go my first time with my family! I couldn't get a smile off my face it was an incredible feeling. First we decided to buy two flash passes so we wouldnt have to stand in line even though it wasnt to busy. Since we had the boys with us we had to take turns on the rides. Nick and I would go then Nick and Matt would go or Matt and I would go. It was a lot of running around and hectic at times but well worth it all. After we got done riding some of roller coasters we decided to take the boys to ride some kiddy rides. There was so many to choose from to bad they were only a couple inches to small to ride alone. It was ok though because 75% of them parents could ride with, so we were able to go with them and it was a lot of fun. Honestly i had a blast riding the roller coasters but more fun riding the kiddy rides with our boys. They had such a good time and LOVED all the rides. They were fearless and wanted to ride every ride. After we got done with that we sat down for a few minutes and watched a bunch of cartoon characters sing and dance on stage. The boys were memorized by them and really enjoyed watching. It was such a gorgeous day outside and man were we happy we decided to drive 2 hours to have a little fun in the sun. WE were starving after having all that fun so we went and ate so good grub then went on a few more roller coasters before the park closed. After eating some and riding the last few rides we realized Ashton lost one of his shoes. So we started looking everywhere for it but never ended up finding it. SO i made a report in the lost in found hoping they would find it but i thought to myself they never will. It was such a incredible day, we were alll pooped my the time we left.










On the drive home Matt's car over heated and we had to stop to put water in it. The boys were so upset the started freaking out when we stopped. They dont like being stuck in their car seats or the car for to long. When we finally got home we were all so happy to kick back and relax! I ended up running to the store to buy Ashton new shoes and was fortunate to find the same ones at Ross. What a DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

CAlifornia was so much fun but by the end up it I was more then ready to get home into my own bed and back on schedule. THe last day was a little sad we went over to Nicks papa and grannies to say our goodbyes and get to the airport. It was so gorgeous outside we didnt want to leave till night time.
