So the last time I made a blog, I was somewhat short with everyone, but I have been informed by my seriously awesome, sexy wife that she really is upset that I am not sharing my emotions online and she is. So, in this blog you may expect the bland, sharable emotions and random thoughts that come to my mind as I power my way through life with the two most amazing girls on the planet (pictures provided below) and whomever else decides to join us on our adventure.

These are the girls I was talking about, and this is a very good view of all of the fun we have together. This has been quite the summer, as you will see from the California pictures that I will post, and the summer has ended WAY too soon. In a short week, I will be back to school on my way to graduation. Ya'll have started reading this just in time to hear about my senior year, and it will be a dooosey!

So, to start off my blog, here is a look at the biggest trip this family has taken, from the guys point of view.

So, I knew before we went on our trip that Kira was dying to read the new Stephanie Meyer book, and we had to get a couple of other things for our trip, so I made plans with Kira to go to the store on the way out of town and pick things up. However, I did not mention the book, and I secretly made plans to get up before everyone else and sneak to the store and buy the book and everything else and leave it in the car for Kira to find when she got there. So, I went to Wal-mart in the morning and got all the stuff and searched high and low for the book, only to not find anything! I even know who the assistant manager at the local Wal-mart is now. So, I left dejected, thinking my plan would fail, but I thought as a last-ditch effort I would check Smiths on my way home. I strolled into Smiths, and right at the from, I found The Host. Not what I wanted, but it would do for now. I walked around the table and there it was... Breaking Dawn.... She was going to love me. Went home, left the books on the car seat, and went inside with the stuff.

"Where did you go?" asked Kira, usually angry when I go to the store without telling her because usually there is something that she wanted that she didn't tell me about.

"Walmart," I replied, "I thought it would be faster if I went while everyone got ready. I had nothing else to do."

"Oh, " she said. I could tell she felt like she had missed something she wanted badly. "I was going to see if they had the book so I could read it on the way to LA."

"Oh, I looked. Walmart didn't have it," which wasn't a lie. "Nowhere else is open right now. I'm sorry, Kir."

"Its ok."

All I could think about was how excited she would be when she saw them, and she was, as you can see from the pictures. My plan worked out perfectly.

We stayed in Primm at Whiskey Pete's on the way there.


I won some money on the slots, so then I went to roulette to play a little and I lost five, so overall I lost 2.75.


This never happened.

So, in California we did a lot of fun things, but I have to say that my favorite part (And I knew it would be) was the beach. I love the beach! I love playing in the water. Water could be the coolest toy in the world! So, here are pictures of us playing in the waves. I only wish we could be there every other day. That might be enough to satisfy me.


Our little family standing at this little overlook by Laguna Beach.

Battles with the waves. We would swim just before them, then they would let us ride the top of the wave into the beach.



My hot wife, Kira and I one the beach. The time with her was amazing! By far my favorite thing about the vacation. This one and one other are tied for my favorite California pictures.
Anna was not a fan of the sand, but she loved the beach and she has always loved being outside!
Badly burned and exhausted from a day at the beach, this picture shows how much fun we had. This is my other favorite picture.

All us Adults standing in front of the most intense ride I have ever been on, the X2 at Six flags. The line was two hours, and we were all dying in the sun from our beach sun burns, but it was cool.


Lets just say that the mist machines might have been our favorite ride at six flags.

Oh, and I saw a Bentley in the parking lot. CRAZY!


So, on the day that we went to LA, I navigated and it just happened that we took Santa Monica Boulevard, not knowing that we would pass the temple. It was cool.

Of course I had to choose the Donald to get my picture taken with.

On the way home, we stopped in Saint George to find food, and we drove past the temple there we took this picture on the move.

So, thats our little vacation. I suppose I will be doing more blogs, but probably not as many as Kir. Hope ya'll enjoy.
