Boomers and Dinner

Our last day in Santa Maria we went to Boomers with Dad and Cat, basically it's like anyother miniature golf/go-cart place. We had a great time in the arcade, Dad and Cat played air hockey and skeetball while we took Rachel to do some of the "kiddy" games. Then we tricked Dad and Cat to go out on the water bumper cars. They had a great time getting eachother soaked and Rachel loved it!! Afterwards, we went to dinner at Cool Hand Luke's with Dad, Cat, Brad and Jessica. We had a great time!! Thanks Dad and Cat!!

Beach Day


After the 4th we decided to spend the day at Avila Beach!! Rachel LOVES the beach!! She had a great time playing in the sand and burying Mark and being buried herself!! She loved playing in the water! I wish my video would download of her playing in the waves!! Also, on this fine occasion, Mark thought that it would be a good idea to swim alllllllllllllllllllll the way out to the bouy and back!! Seriously!?! And I was stupid enough to go along with him!! It took us what felt like 20 years to get there and on the way back I was sooooo tired!! My Dad thought he was funny and gave us a whole $1 for doing it, worth at least $20 next time!! We had an awesome time!!

4th of July 2011


We had an awesome 4th of July at Pismo Beach this year. Thanks to my brother's wonderful girlfriend Jessica and her family!! We had a BBQ and did fireworks with the kids. Rachel had a great time playing with Jessica's nephews, especially Jamison. It was great to watch 4th of July fireworks from the pier! We love the 4th of July and we LOVE the USA!!!

California Family


We went back to Santa Maria after our awesome time at Disneyland/California Adventure (thank you Dad and Cat). We were able to hang out with Mom and Frank and take Rachel to Waller Park. That's always fun because it's the park that I grew up playing at! We also went with Dad and Cat to another park in Orcutt where we had taken Rachel last year. It's fun to see how much she has grown, she did the monkey bars for the first time all by herself! We also made it up to Aunt Su's in AG for a family BBQ and of course poker! It was really cute when we saw CeCe reading to Rachel, just like how Amy use to read to me when we were little. And I had to add the little picture of Rachel with "Silly Goofy" (which is what she calls my Dad) coloring one morning.
