Don't you just love a vacation when the only shoes you have to pack are flip flops?
Here is my attempt at a family picture with 16 people, a tripod & a timer. Turned out ok & I got a little exercise running back & forth!
We had a grand birthday celebration complete with presents, ice cream cake & 2 pinatas!
Visited Birch Aquarium in LaJolla.
Visited Birch Aquarium in LaJolla.
This is where all the magic happened!
Stroganoff, molten lava cakes, fruit & chocolate filled pancake balls, Ryan asking random, thought provoking, reunion questions & stomachs expanding!
Yes, that is a grandfather watching his grandson play with a huge knife & thinking it's oh so cute & funny!
Halle & Eli LOVED playing together despite their very different personalities. Here they are playing a game of Freeze Dance! Halle did lots of pretty twirls & Eli did many flips into couches. I hope they'll always be friends.
This is pretty much how all of us felt when we got home & had to unpack.
Not pictured: a snorkeling trip to LaJolla cove, Eli getting lost on the beach, swims in the jacuzzi, dinner at the harbour for only the adults, and late night games of Nerts.

Marcus sums up exactly how I felt when I came home...and discovered all my dirty clothes [at that point most all my clothes] had been thrown away in San Diego. Moral to the story, don't put your dirty clothes in plastic garbage bags.....! But we had a great time, especially the birthday fiesta, and the cake worked out perfect: Caleb turned 7, Halle turned 4 and I turned 74!
that family picture turned out way better than just okay!
love the composition.
fun times with the family-
april,
love to see your family!
It is so good to see everyone. You guys look great!
I can't believe you guys play Nerts! What do you think of a little Nerts at Thanksgiving?
Your family picture is amazing.
