Weekend Visit!

We were so lucky to have some special visitors this weekend! My cousin Michael with his beautiful wife Aracely and their cute kids Lauren and Baby Michael drove up from Southern Cali to spend a couple days with us! We had such a great time catching up and hanging out! Visits like this are too few and far between!

Lindy's 9 month old Paxton, my 18 month old Pey, Michael and Aracely's 15 month old Michael



Since Michael and Aracely are born & raised So. Cal. kids, they wanted to see some "farms" of the Central Valley. Ha ha. So we drove to a local college's farm and smelt the "fresh" air. Here are some cute little piggies we saw.



We also saw LOTS of horses with their babies. For some reason, the horses scared Lauren and Jordyn a LOT!

It was SO warm this weekend, like 90, so the kids had a dip in the kiddie pool at my mom's. She even made it extra fun with bubbles!




Lauren, almost 3, and Jordyn 6




Peyton, Lauren, Lexi and Lyric



We even gave them their first "Rockband" experience. And they loved it!!! (although I am getting a little tired of 'Black Hole Sun' and 'Sabotage')




And the kids spent a lot of time out in our backyard as usual. Here they were playing "Simon Says"



It was such a great visit. Thank you SOOOOOO much you guys for coming down and making memories with us! We loved it.


Oh, and for the BEST travel guide (esp for So Cal), check out Aracely's travel blog: daytrippingmom.blogspot.com. She goes EVERYWHERE and does great reviews on anything you could think to do, especially with kids.
