http://kingofthewest.blogspot.com/2015/06/its-officially-summer.html
Monday, June 29, 2015. And June just keeps getting better with beach walks, hot dates, pool time and whipped cream fights! Laurelun returned home from Italy, so we headed to the beach! Tom and I on a date in Newport Beach. We discovered a really cool neighborhood along the back bay trail. Andrew is finally wearing a suit to church. He got a lot of attention for it. Please try to ignore the hair flying by in an attempt to photobomb! Jen and I were twins on Sunday! Corey and Andrew in the pool.

Tuesday, January 27, 2015. All you gotta do is JUMP. Me, Emma, Cami, AnnaLisa, Adam. Me, Lara, Cami. I'm so glad when family comes to visit! Saturday, January 24, 2015. Doesn't get much better than a date night in January at the beach! This view knocks my socks off:. Tuesday, January 20, 2015. It's rare that we have a non-sunny day here in SoCal, but today I woke up to an amazing covering of fog and it made me happy! Picture taken at a local park on my walk this morning. Isn't it gorgeous? After hiking, ...

Kings of Cali: Good Times in June
http://kingofthewest.blogspot.com/2015/06/good-times-in-june.html
Saturday, June 13, 2015. Good Times in June. This month has been awesome! Tom came home from his long trial and we were overjoyed to have him back with us! Last week I got to spend the day at the San Diego Temple and the nearby beach with some of my closest friends. It was a wonderful and relaxing day. Me, Betsy, Tricia, and Jen. Jen, me, Tricia, and Betsy. Tricia, Jen, Me and Betsy. The last couple days I had the privilege of babysitting these cutie pies while they were getting ready to move out-of-state.

Kings of Cali: February 2015
http://kingofthewest.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 28, 2015. We did a lot of fun things during the trip, including going on a hike to see ancient graffiti. Baby Sarah likes everyone in the family except for Tom. At one point, she went running into Andrew's arms so that he would pick her up. Oh, and Andrew felt comfortable enough that he went around grandma and grandpa's house wearing shorts and a blanket (which, we believe, is his natural state). Forrest is photobombing. And Sarah didn't get the memo on smiling. Kids these days. What a...

Kings of Cali: August 2014
http://kingofthewest.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 27, 2014. I was getting tired of my long boring hair and decided it was time for a change. I feel lighter already! I love getting a good haircut! I believe Madeline and I are now twins:. Wednesday, August 13, 2014. We are spending as much time at the beach as we can before school starts. I've decided that I like boogie boarding, which is shocking to me. I normally like to sit on a beach chair with a book when I go. Boogie boarding is so much more fun than that! Here are pics from today:.

Kings of Cali: September 2014
http://kingofthewest.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 29, 2014. Kids say the funniest things sometimes. Here are some of the favorite things I've heard lately:. Andrew: "I had a fantastic time on my playdate. My friend's mom is soooo nice. She let me have pizza, 3 cookies and 2 cans of soda today.". Yep, I agree that sounds like a very nice mom! I may have to go next time for some goodies. Madeline says she wants to go too. One of Andrew's friends: "I am one of the best people I know.". And he's not even the youngest in his family. (;.

Kings of Cali: December 2014
http://kingofthewest.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 28, 2014. Tom's parents and his sister Christina came for a visit this month. We almost got the whole family to act silly:. There is a local park that has exercise equipment stationed around the perimeter of the park. Andrew was not only getting exercise but almost doing the splits on this machine. Madeline usually likes to sing when no one can "see her". Yes, she is singing in this picture:. Kayleigh, Praia, and Madeline being silly in front of the big Christmas tree at the mall:. We en...

Kings of Cali: Beach Day
http://kingofthewest.blogspot.com/2015/07/beach-day.html
Friday, July 17, 2015. Going to the beach with friends is an amazing perk to living in California. We headed to Calafia where the water was reasonably warm and the waves were perfect for boogie boarding. We had a fabulous day! Alli, Tricia, me, Betsy and Julie. Andrew and Carter riding the wave. Madeline looking like a real California girl. Madeline and her friends. Summer, Madeline, Claire, Audrey, and Savannah. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Good, the Bad, and the Quirkiness of Texas.

Kings of Cali: April 2015
http://kingofthewest.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 22, 2015. I had the awesome privilege of spending a long weekend with my handsome hubby in Carmel. It was such a beautiful, fun, and relaxing weekend. We hiked about 15 miles a day through Point Lobos State Reserve surrounded on three sides by towering cliffs above the ocean. The scenery was breathtaking. The famous lone cypress tree. Even the animals in the area were extra cool. We spent some time at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Diver feeding a shark. Have I mentioned that I love penguins?

Kings of Cali: Random Thoughts, Events and Pictures
http://kingofthewest.blogspot.com/2015/07/random-thoughts-events-and-pictures.html
Wednesday, July 8, 2015. Random Thoughts, Events and Pictures. I am loving summer so far. It's been busy, but fun! We head to Texas next week. We are doing a house swap with another family again. We had three extra kids all last week while our friends were in Hawaii. I taught a RS lesson on Sunday and I *think* it actually went well. I was less stressed about teaching than I normally am. Andrew has been at scout camp all week. I think he likes it even if he won't admit it. The kids especially like it whe...
