California Revisited

I've been procrastinating on blogging, because I'm super tired from being knocked up (which I should probably blog about) but also because we had a fun little excursion I wanted to blog about but the pictures are still on Nick's phone.  I am now at the point were I'm getting too far behind so I need to do something before I give up forever.  On that note, in April we made a trip to California AND Nick got to come with us this time.
This trip was very centered on my family with a wedding, a baby blessing, and my parents visiting from their mission, but we did find time to spend with our good friends, the Volp Family and Nick's family as well.  We spent our first night with the Volps as kind of a calm before the storm of family goodness.  We spent our first day by going to the temple and then having the daddies meet us after their driving range date for a picnic on the grounds.  The kids of course loved the fountain and Sienna died over all the flowers.  The only bummer was that we didn't see a single turkey!


 We spent time just hanging out at the house as well.  Most of the time it looked like this:


Sienna seriously adores that cat!  We also found time the next day to hit the Nimbus Fish Hatchery before we headed down to Elk Grove for baby Wade's blessing.  Nick's watch was still on Idaho time so we spent the first half of our visit freaking out that it was going to close soon only to realize that we still had a whole other hour before that happened!  We got to feed the fish, watch them go crazy and see the visitor's center.  We had a pretty good time for 75 cents (the amount we spent on food for the fish).


We love getting to spend time with Ashley, Brandon and Vance!  We are so excited to see them when they come visit us this summer.
