Happy 2nd Birthday Logan!

On July 29th, Logan turned 2 years old! He's growing up so quickly! But it sure has been fun along the way! Logan is such a happy, easy-going kid. He loves Curious George, trains, and eating cheese. We love him so much!!! Happy Birthday Logan!

We had a little party with a few friends at the waterpark, complete with a monkey cake!

Take Me Out to the Ball Game!

Last Monday, we took the boys to a Fresno Grizzlies baseball game. It was a fun family outing! I hate watching baseball, so I couldn't tell you anything that happen with the game. Except I do know that they played against the Salt Lake Bees. The boys had fun just running around and eating hot dogs and sodas.

Orange County, CA

July 17th and 18th were spent in Orange County. We met up with Ben & Lynnette and their kids and Abe's parents who were vacationing down there.
On Friday morning, Abe and Ben and Steve went deep sea fishing, but didn't really catch anything. Then we went to Newport Beach for the rest of the day and had a great time. My little sister, Emily, was with us too.
Logan took a really long nap on the beach, then played in the sand, Jake had fun with Isaac and Eve playing in the water, and the rest of us did a lot of boogie boarding. It's was a very fun quick trip!

The Waterpark...Our Second Home



Season passes at The Island Waterpark here in Fresno has been a MUST for us! We go there 2-3 times a week to escape the heat here. And we have so much fun too! There's a huge kiddie area with slides and fountains and such. Jake and Logan love it! This last week, Jake discovered that he's just barely tall enough to go on the 'big kid' waterslides, and now that's all he wants to do! He's even brave enough to go on the 'black waterslide' where it's pitch black the whole way down. Strap a life jacket on that kid and he's off! There's also a wave pool and a lazy river that we all enjoy.

Camping Over the 4th of July

Over the 4th of July, we ventured up to the Sierra National Forest to do some camping. We went with our friends, the Jolleys: Ryan, Marilyn, Brayden, and Kaitlyn, and our other friend Amy. It was a lot of fun!

Abe did a lot of fishing and caught several little catfish, but he did catch one good sized catfish, which he and Ryan cooked up and ate! The boys also had fun hunting for frogs and tadpoles and even caught a few (thanks to Marilyn's skills...).

We also did some swimming at a pond nearby. It was great weather, great company, and overall a great time!

Pismo Beach

Last Saturday, we took a day trip out to Pismo Beach. It's only a 2 1/2 hour drive, but definitely worth it! While it was around 100 degrees in Fresno, Pismo was only around 85--nice and cool! We had fun playing on the beach, and Abe spent most of the time out in the water boogie boarding.

Ask him if he'll ever go without at rash guard again...
