Home Sweet Home

Being home is always a good thing! We sure did have fun in California though. Our last morning was full of funny things the kiddos do. It started with sis finding the weights and walking around with them. Unfortunately we didn't get the best picture of our kids pumping iron- but they really were...promise!
We also finally got a picture with Uncle Jordan. He is great with the kids and we had a blast getting to talk with him and catch up on life. We are excited to go back in a few short weeks for his High School Graduatoin.
We made it on the road about 8:30am and were home by 1:00pm. Traffic wasn't too bad. We got bogged down for a bit but then the kids took over and we made up the lost time ;) {disclaimer: no children were harmed in the taking of these picutres. We were actually stopped in the beautiful town of Baker, home of the world's tallest thermometer}

{Ya- I know Tyler doesn't look like he's having much fun but you really should have heard him laughing all the way home. The only thing he didn't like was when cousin Ben would steal his pacifier or blanket...or kick him...or hit him...}

Tyler was so excited to see his daddy when we got home. He would cry every time we got in the car because he couldn't be held by his best buddy. Tyler was so excited to nap in his own crib again that he spent a good 20 minutes just shaking the crib, turning on and off the lights, and pounding on the wall. Once he realized everything was just how he left it Tyler passed out for a great two hour nap. When we woke up we enjoyed dinner at In-n-Out and Tyler even got to sport a little hat.
We had fun running around town with Ryan and it is so good to be home. Back to our routine (or not so routine) life. Hopefully we can find some fun things to keep posting.
