California



Our trip to California was very fun. Ever since we went to Hawaii in February McKell askes 'when are we going back to Hawaii?' She doesn't like my answer of 'it will be a very, very long time!' So we took her to a closer beach, southern California. I love southern California!! I would love to live there! I have been going there all my life spending tons of time on the beach. We went to Huntington Beach and walked the pier and spent time in the ocean and the sand. The girls had a blast, McKell is just like me loves every minute of it. Nate even had a good time! We found him some little glasses which he liked so he could open his eyes outside. I read the 6th Harry Potter book and got a nice tan. My parents were enjoying their grandkids and spoiled them every chance they could. We swam at the hotel and McKell became a great swimmer. She can swim by herself the entire width of the pool under water. This just happened all of a sudden, it might have been because her younger cousin, Austin, was learning to swim. She must have a little competitive edge in her- I don't know where she gets that! Alyssa is a little swimmer as well- with her tube of course. She goes all over the pool with her tiny legs kicking so fast. She can keep up with the big kids as long as she has her tube.

Um, Nicole, I see I'm not one of your friends, but this is way cute, I myself have never done a blog and don't know what it means, but this inspires me to learn. Your kids are way cute, so are you of course, I can't believe how big they get so fast. Mckell's dancing is so cute and Alyssa has such beautiful eyes and that Nate really is adorable. He looks very cool in his shades.
