4th of July and trip to Santa Monica

4th of July!! We had a great 4th... we were still in CA for it. In the morning we went to the Templeton parade, then had a BBQ at the Meek's house... lots of swimming and delicious food. Then we went to a nearby park and watched an awesome firework show (we canceled plans to do fireworks at the beach because there was too much fog there that night). We all had so much fun!


Chloe's favorite part of the parade was watching the horses, and eating popcorn.

Waiting for fireworks to start...

Despite what it may look like, no, we did not drug our child.

All set up with her ear muffs. She loved the fireworks.

On our last night there, we went to the SLO farmer's market with Jake, Bronwyn, and Dillan. We had some of the best pizza ever. We walked around shops, watched the entertainers, and ate lots of good food. We miss you guys so much!

Santa Monica: We drove down to Santa Monica to spend a weekend with Liz and Brandon while they were there. We had so much fun, and it was so nice to see my sis again! Here are some pics:

We loved hanging out with you guys... we miss you all so much! Unfortunately, the weekend came to an end and we headed back to Phoenix. Although it was incredibly hot, it was nice to be home again...
