Bad blogger

I am so bad lately with blogging. I'm trying to do better. We have done a lot of things since I posted last.
Brad finished the board exams and got his score today and he passed one of them. Phew! Good job Bradley! We knew you could!
After tests were over we went to California for a week and had a great time! It was so nice to be able to go and not worry about anything but having fun and boy did we ever!
We went to Newport Beach for a day (well a couple hours) the kids didn't like it at all. They started to like it a little at the end but they were pretty freaked out by their first beach experience. The pic says it all. She was booking it from the wave. Preston just wanted to hang out on the blanket and not even touch the sand...silly kids. They did finally warm up to the idea...a little bit.



Then we spent two days at Disneyland and California Adventure. What a blast that was!!! It was so fun to see the kids so happy and so excited to meet their favorite characters! Hannah loves the princesses!! We were first in line to meet Belle, Ariel and Tiana. Preston loved it too. There is nothing greater than seeing their happy faces! Meeting the characters was their favorite. Preston loved meeting Mickey, Lightening McQueen and Woody. He was just beside himself over McQueen, as you can see by the picture!










These are just some of the highlights. It was the best vacation ever! We also went to a little zoo but it was sooooo hot we didn't stay long. The kids were terrified of the goats in the petting zoo for some reason. It was kinda funny.
We're back home now enjoying some time together. We're headed up to Utah for five days on Friday to celebrate Hannah's birthday and for a Pioneer Day visit.
