Family Hopping

My family didn't have a big get together this summer like we usually do but I still wanted to see everyone so we decided to take a road trip and take a route that aloud us to see everyone!

First stop: LA to Mom and Dad's!

We first stayed at my parents house. Steven and Kimberly were also home from BYU for the summer so we were able to spend some time with them too! We mostly just hung out but I wanted to take a trip to my favorite place ever, Santee Alee. We also went to Descanso Gardens one day which is a big natural garden preserve in my town, so pretty. I also got to see my favorite Uncle Robert that haven't seen in a couple of years and let him meet Cambri.

Cambri loved playing in my parents backyard with all the fun toys my mom has collected.

such sass!

She LOVES Elmo!

Uncle Robert sure is funny!

Second Stop: San Diego with Jen and Jeremy 

Next we went to see my oldest sister and her cute family and her prego belly. We took advantage of her living so close to pretty beaches and went to the beach a couple of days. Jen also was so nice and volunteered to watch Cambri so Tyler and I could go on a date the beautiful Coronado Island. We then spent the last day walking around our favorite clear water beach La Jolla and seeing the seals. It was so fun and Cambri had so much fun with her cousins Ethan and Kylee

Cambri loves Ethan. She cuddled up to him all by herself. Look at her curls after the beach!

We LOVE going to the beach! Cambri could play there all day! It was hard to get any good pictures of her because she was either running all around or way too distracted to look at the camera.

love this

Last Stop: Las Vegas to Kelly and Greg's

My second oldest sister, Kelly and her adorable family bought a gorgeous house in Vegas this summer. I thought they were insane to want to live there but I was so shocked when we got there at how beautiful her town Henderson was! Everywhere was landscaped so beautifully and they got a huge beautiful home with a swimming pool and the coolest walking path behind their house leading to parks. Heaven. We only had time to stay there for a day so we enjoyed their company and home and especially their swimming pool. It was fun because us "adults" totally flashed back to the kid days and played games like who can get the most pool weights when thrown in and handstand contest and doing cool flips with each other underwater. We also ended the trip by going to one of their cool splash parks they have in Vegas. It was so much fun to see them and I'm so glad they live so much closer now.

ok so their park looks likes the setting of my favorite wordless picture book "Chalk" so cool!

Cute cousins! I love that Cambri and Ella are only 6 months apart!

I'm SO glad we decided to do a summer rode trip to see everyone. It was nice to spend individual time with each family. I always miss my family so much and wish so bad that we all lived in the same state but at least it's nice to know that we are only a a days drive away. Cambri had so much fun with her cousins. I can tell they are all going to be best friends as they get older.

Thanks family for being such great host and letting us stay with you!!
