California...Here we go again!!

Yep, yet another Cali vacation. Tyler and I went to Six Flags and the Hollywood Walk of Fame. These pictures are in front of the Grauman's Chinese Theater along the walk of fame. We watched "Get Smart" at this theater. I was asleep part of the movie, since it started at 10:30pm, my normal bedtime. Kaylin had fun with both sets of grandparents in Arizona, while we were gone.

PARTY On and GOLF's the Thing

Kaylin and I got our party on this last Saturday at my work mid-year party. It was held at Kiwanis Park and though hot, was a lot of fun. Kaylin is just learning to walk in shoes and had fun exploring.



Meanwhile, Tyler and his Dad were at the US Open Golf Tournament at Torrey Pines in California. He followed Phil Mickelson around a bit and also watched Tiger Woods eagle the 18th hole. As Tyler puts it, [this was] "A once in a lifetime chance."

~ Our Trip to Cali ~

I have been chastised for not updating our blog enough, so ...

Tyler had such fun doing the dancing dad thing that we are hoping to be able to post the video here for everyone to see. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of it to post.

Tyler, Kaylin, and I went on a trip to the San Jose area of California last week (May 17-20). We visited some of the people he knew on his mission, but we also did a lot of sightseeing as well. We have trouble with our camera eating batteries so we didn't get as many pics as we would have liked. Check out some of the pics we did get below. The pics under our names on the right are also from this trip.

Kaylin's First Birthday

These are pics from Kaylin's first birthday about a month and a half ago. We used a snowman Pez dispenser as the birthday candle because we didn't have any real candles for the cake. As you can see, she REALLY enjoyed the cake!

New Bloggers on Board

We tried to set up a blog previously without luck. Now we've decided to try again, so here we are the New Bloggers on Board. We have one awesome child, Kaylin, for now. Tyler has been interning in Accounting and will be graduating within a year. I am still working, but recently changed to part time. We are a happy, little family at the moment and would like to share our family adventures with you!
