The clouds parted & gave us CALI!

It was around February or March that Marissa and I sat on her couch, looked out side to the cold, grey, rainy day and started scheming a trip. It had to be somewhere sunny and no too much mula...CALIFORNIA! Three months later we said goodbye to our studious husbands and away we went. We stayed at Seth's Aunt Carolyns beach house in San Juan Capistrano. Seth and I had our honeymoon there (almost 6yrs. ago! crazy!) and last year we got to bring our girls and stay a week there. Its the greatest place ever. There is something so therapeutic about hearing the waves crash, smelling the ocean air and feeling the hot sand on your feet. Ahhhh. amazing...

I even got to see my old Hawaii friend Shira and her newest little one Brekyn! Jane was so into Brekyn, it was really cute.

The babies

Perfect afternoon for a walk around the temple

Marissa and her cute kiddos Spencer and Nellie

Jane looks like such a big girl here!

I love my baby girls

I could kiss on those cheeks alllllllllll day.

After Cali we headed to Utah for my little sisters wedding (who was the most stunning bride ever)!!! More on that part of the trip later...

BEST DAY EVER

Disney Land was...amazing.

We had so much fun. Marissa and I had family watch the little ones (Thank you Sandy!!!) so we could keep our eyes on the three year old's. The weather was perfect, the kids were happy and the only sad part of the whole thing is that its over:(

Of course we had to meet Rapunzel(Rae's current obsession!) It was epic:)

Raegan actually licking the honey. ew.

Raegan and Spencer loved these honey pots!

My two favorite pictures of the day. (below)

The firework show. Magical.

The kids were spent.

Is it weird that I seriously miss it and already want to go back!?

Jamison Park

The babies

Spencer as a back street boy. love the chocolate goatee.

And miss Rae thrilled to have "pink ice cream!"

Jane somehow yoinked Raegans strawberry sorbet & was NOT about to give it back!

"Mom I'm the Portland Ballet"

Raegan started taking ballet lessons recently and now she dances just about everywhere she goes. Her teacher is a friend of mine named Rosie. The girls call her teacher Rosie, but for the first few days Rae thought her name was teacher peperoni.
