Sunny So. CA

So we took a trip to California for my cousin Adams wedding last weekend. It was so fun to see family and enjoy the sunny weather. This first picture summarizes our driving experience. Porter and Max did awesome. Especially when entertained with chips, candy or any other junk food.

We headed out to Santa Monica our first day there to visit Matt's brother and their family. We always have so much fun with them. How can you not love any trip to the beach? They took us to the beach to search for sea glass and enjoy the sunset. Porter loves sand! And he loves to smear it all over his head.


We spent the next day in Redlands with my family. We celebrated my cousin Aidens birthday at the Farm. It was Pumpkin Patch time, so there was plenty of fun things to do. The boys can't get enough of playing on the rides and seeing all the animals. I sure do miss being there and seeing all of my family.





:) I think I love the rides just as much as the boys do :)

To keep up the wild ride of a vacation, we spent Halloween at Disneyland. I have been begging Matt for the last 6 years to take me to Disneyland. He finally gave in. A few of my family members tagged along with us. And we had a great day. We got there at 9:00 am and didn't leave the park until close to 11:00 pm. I can't believe the boys made it that long. They were soo happy all day long. Disneyland will definitely have to become an annual trip. We loved it. Here's a few fun pics from the day.





And the last day was the wedding. Adam and Kit were married in the Redlands, CA temple. I love this temple. We were lucky enough to live in Redlands when the temple was built and dedicated. And my grandmother had a big part of the dedication. I have such amazing memories from that time. It always makes me so happy to return to that temple. It was so fun to see so many of my family members. I miss them all soo much and can't wait to visit again. Thanks everyone for such a fun trip. We love you guys!
