4th of July

4th of July in California!
This summer we decided to pack up the kids and take Brayden on his first real road trip.  We headed to Aunt Jackie and Uncle Gary's for the holiday weekend.  The trip was just under 5 hours and went great.  Larkin enjoyed watching DVDs most of the way and Brayden pretty much slept!

A New Tradition
Last summer we spent the 4th in Vermont and had to go to the annual parade.  So this year we had to try again so we headed to the parade in Corona.  Really if you have seen one parade you have seen them all (especially if you ask Shaun), but we had beautiful weather and enjoyed a morning outside!

An Evening at the ballpark!
While we were in California we witnessed a rare event.  We went to the Angels vs. Royals game and actually saw Kansas City win!!!!

Just Hanging Around
One of the best parts of our mini-vacation was just getting to relax and spend some time with our wonderful family.  The weather was perfect and we spent much of the weekend outside, just playing around.  What a great time!
Larkin having fun with her stuffed animals.  The whole organizing thing she definitely gets from her daddy.

Outside fun on the activity mat.  Who would have thought a toy could be so interesting!

Larkin loves to entertain her little brother.  They are so cute together!
