So, I realize that I have been the slacker blogger of the year lately - let's just say I have had a lot going on. Namely a long vacation to Southern California. We left on the 23rd and got back on Friday (the 2nd). It was a really fun trip.
Here some picture; a lot of picture (please keep in mind that I had a baby less than 3 months ago - basically I just look really fat in all these pictures)...
In Las Vegas on the way down. Notice to the cool tree with the face in the background. FYI: Adam is blowing a kiss to the camera.
The tallest thermometer in the whole world - it is in Baker, CA (I think)
Newport Beach, CA - sandcastle building. Scott is an expert.
This how Davie was almost everytime we went to the beach. He was such a good boy the whole time.
Mmmmm, ice cream heaven.
My handsome Scott
So worn out from being so cute (and stinkery) - she just fell asleep right there on the beach.
Scott's Grandma Hill
Balboa Park, San Diego
La Jolla Shores, San Diego, CA
Getting ready to find some good tidepools with the kids.
Lily giving Gracie a piggy back ride back to the car. It was pretty cute!
Seriously, how cute is this boy...I will travel with him anyday; he was such a great baby on the trip.
Scott's Grandma Fox trying to get Gracie to smile at the camera - she was so fun to stay with.
Adam showing me his "tomato" bug (I have told him a million times that it is a potato bug, not tomato bug - oh well).
Scott loved throwing the kids in the pool. Lily had a pretty good belly flop on this one...
This is just after I saved Gracie's life... She decided to go down the slide without telling anyone. Before I knew it she was in the pool sinking - luckily I was standing right there. Now I know what I would do if one of my children needs saving - I jumped in after her with my clothes (obviously) and shoes on and all. It scared her enough that she didn't attempt the slide again.
Scott's Uncle Brad and Aunt Lupe with Lily and Davie.
The three kids in the back seat having a blast (Adam doesn't normally sit back there).
Next time someone tells me that we don't have enough space for all the people in the world I going to pull these pictures out - talk about a lot of empty space; and who needs water anyway...
Which way should we go?ALSO: Congratulations to Scott's brother Brian and his darling wife Callie - they bacame parents to a beautiful little girl yesterday. We are so excited to have a our new little neice Eden Elizabeth Hill in the family.

that looks fun ... and you SO don't look fat.
Oh goodness, don't start on being fat. I'm pretty sure you're skinnier than me and you have three more kids than I do.
Yay for fun vacations! And what's up with the thermometer....random.
so fun! we love balboa park...we should meet there sometime!!!
Welcome Home! We missed you here in blog world.
Your right the thermometer is in Baker ca. I pass through there every time I visit my parents in So. Utah.
It looks like you all had a great time on your trip, and thanks for the first look at Brian and Callies little girl.
I was wondering where you have been. What a wonderful trip and a darling family! I sure do miss California weather and the beach!
P.S. You look great!
Looks like you had a great time! I don't live that far from where you were at. There is a lot of fun things to see in southern CA. I just wish I didn't have to live in this state. :) Your kids are adorable, and you look fabulous for just having a baby. Take care!

What a fun trip. David is getting so big, and is absolutely adorable.
What a crazy think about Grace in the pool. Good for you for sacrificing your dry clothes. :)
Looks like you guys had a good time. It seemed like you were gone forever - because you were!
So fun!! Are you crazy, you look beautiful! I am so glad Gracie is ok, the same thing happened to Maddison and Melinda had to go in with clothes on and get her too.
It looks like you all had a great time and Scott's grandma's are so cute!
What a fantastic trip! I love the picture with all the signs!
P.S. I'm going to call you soon, I promise!
