Going to the Santa Monica Pier was on Poppy's bucket list, so... they went IN STYLE

A Day At Kidzu

Before Mommy and the kids left for California, Daddy took the kids to... KIDZU.  We hadn't been there in a long time.  It was fun!

Maggie found some fun stuff to play with!


Swinging so fast she got blurry!



And Charlie being Charlie

There's Some Fun in Sacramento!

Looks like Charlie & Maggie are having a blast in Sacramento!

I can't wait for them to come home and have fun with me!

Folsom Lake / Post-Apocalyptic Wasteland!

There's something so "Lord of the Flies" about this picture of Charlie on a deserted beach holding a stick attached to a paper plate...

Maggie don't care!

The Most Popular Toy At The Beach

Ice-Cream Cones!

I'm not kidding.  Bre got these Ice-Cream cone beach toys, and she made sure to get 3, and we're all very grateful she did.  I think every kid made 100 ice-cream cones.  Mostly for Kenny.

Makes Kenny Laugh!

Collecting Shells!

These two kids had so much fun playing on the beach and collecting shells!

Evening Stroll

Bre loves to go on little evening walks on the beach with Charlie & the kids.  This time Mabel joined them!

Our Little Surfer Girl!

She's following in Mommy's footprints!
