In Suuummmer!!

Bella loves Olaf from "Frozen" and used to sing "in suuummmmeeer" from his song randomly. haha We are for sure in summer here in St. George!! Today the car said it was 108 degrees! Yikes! We are doing our best to keep cool by swimming and going to the splash pad.

We have settled into our new place and love it! We are backed up to the playground and b-ball court so the girls love to go out and play and ride around. 

Our biggest adventure since we last posted was our trip to Disneyland/California. We went with our friends the Noordas and it was a blast! We just went to Disneyland for one day...it was fun but crazy! We were so exhausted by the end of it. We planned out our day maximizing the Fast Passes, etc. so we were able to ride pretty much every ride we wanted to in both Disneyland and California Adventure. The girls even got to meet the princesses, which was a highlight of course. :) The other days we spent at the beach. I'd forgotten how much a LOVE the beach. Next time we are going to skip Disneyland and just go to the beach. :) Here are some pictures from the trip:

Pure joy on the teacups!! :)

Meeting the princesses...Bella wasn't sure about it all!

The whole group in front of Mickey...we were rushing all day we didn't get a picture until the very end of the day.

This is classic Bella! She is a nut! :)

Celebrating Zach's birthday at BJ's Pizza in Huntington Beach...you wouldn't know it but Addi had just vomited all over us before this picture. :(

On Easter Sunday after church we went to Laguna Beach, had a picnic and walked along the beach...it was sooo pretty!

We were so sad to come home!! Can't wait until Newport! :) Life goes on though...we got home and a couple days later the girls and I left again to go up North. I was attending a blogging conference while Mom and Dad graciously watched the girls. It was a fun weekend to quickly see everyone up North.  The girls had a BLAST!

Bella loves her Grandma and popcorn! :)

Jake being silly and everyone jumping on the trampoline.

 After being gone for almost two weeks we got settled back into our routine and doing all the end of the year stuff. My Singers Company group did their final performances and Addi graduated from her first year of Preschool! :)

The girls did a fabulous job!

Then we just celebrated Addi's 4th birthday! I can't believe she is 4! She is so smart and loves to play with friends. We are so grateful she is in our family!

The birthday girl!

We couldn't start the summer without a trip to the ER for Zach...he had kidney stones again. Poor guy! This time was worse than the other times so we ended up in the ER to try to help him get on top of the pain. And no wonder it was worse when he caught this in a strainer a few days later:

Nasty little bugger!

Thats about it! Sorry for the novel of a post. :) We are just enjoying summer round here and excited to be with everyone at Newport soon. Look forward to hearing from everyone.

Love you!
Amy and family
