4th and California

The 4th of July we spent with our good friends.  They invited us over to their family's party.  Their neighbor set off a ton of fireworks right in their cul-de-sac.  Watching up close was awesome for everyone but Benny- he is not a fan of the big booms.  I felt so clever making this cool cake, but there was another exactly like it at the party- Pinterest ha!

We had the awesome chance to go to San Diego and Sea World with the Parrish family.  I didn't take my camera to Sea World but we had a great time.  Everyone was kind of in and out with naps and pregnant aunts and the heat.

We took the kids to the beach our last day there.  I love the beach and just enjoying the ocean.

Megan loved it this time, but Benny was not a big fan.  I keep talking about all the things he doesn't like- he is really not that grumpy.  Just like Megan when she was two, Benny did not like to the feel of the sand.  Not to mention the waves that kept coming up and getting you wet.  He hung out in the stroller almost the whole time.

Mark and Megan ran and laughed and splashed and built castles.  We never get enough of the beach. 

On our drive home we stopped by my mom Megan's old stomping grounds.  We didn't have her exact address but we drove around her neighborhood.

We also stopped at the San Diego temple.  It is so pretty!
Awesome family vacation.  It was nice to spend time with everyone, and of course it wasn't long enough.
