Spa Day!

Recently Katie invited her friend Reaghan to have a spa day. They painted their nails, soaked their feet, relaxed with a facial mask, and then took turns painting their toe nails and helping each other. Here are some fun pictures of their spa day.
We bought the masks at the dollar store. The masks come as actual masks that you just lay on your face. To me it looked  a little creepy! They thought they were hilarious! 

Here they are soaking their feet....while looking creepy!




Kellen had to try a mask too!

He knows how to do spa day...laying on the couch with a nice soothing mask.

Oh, we went to the dollar story and Kellen picked out a candy. Behind that lovely smile is a ring pop. He looks a little creepy here.

Love your Minions

Tom just had a birthday and of course I had to do a cake! I found a cake on Pinterest of "Dave the Minion" from Despicable Me 2. I just had to do it! Luckily, Tom likes that movie and loved the cake. Katie and Kellen helped me make it. They brought it out of the refrigerator and said, "Happy Birthday, Dad. Love your little minions". It was awesome!
Katie says thumbs up on "Dave the Minion".

Here is "Dave" in all his glory!

One more for good measure ;)

San Diego here we come!!!!

This year we were invited by some ward members to go to San Diego with them. We had a blast! And here we go!!!


 Love that face!

 Here was our home away from home.



 The first night we went to the Mormon Battalion. Loved it!

 For the 4th of July we went to Coronado Island. The sand was so soft and the waves were perfect! Katie, Kellen and Reaghan were busy building a big hole.

 Kellen is buried in the hole that the kids built.

 Hey Katie, are you stuck in a giant hole?



 If you look closely you can see Kellen's head popping up. Yep, it was about three feet deep.



 We were super lucky to have Uncle Scott join us for our 4th of July fun! Here he is enjoying a delicious sandwich.

 
These guys next to us built this tunnel that kids could climb in. Katie loved it!



\\
 Katie, Kellen and Megan decided to jump in their hole again and all get buried together.
 Tom is going snorkeling!
 Looking handsome in his life jacket. Kinda funny cause that is not his like jacket, nor does he need one. It was Katie's jacket that had lipsticks and lips all over it.

 Kellen!

 This is La Jolla beach. If you look close at the rocks, there are seals all over.

 The black dot on the rock is a giant seal sun bathing.

 Scott is the one in the red suit. He went in with Andrew and Reaghan. The water was really cold!

 Katie!




 This beach had a ton of rocks. It was really hard for people just to walk in. You had to step lightly to avoid falling in.




 Kellen and Reese.
 Reese started filling up Kellen's shirt with sand. Look below for the after photos.

 Grant and Scott hanging out.

 More sand in the shirt....

 Tom took Katie in to snorkel. She is a little fearful of the ocean and it was super cold. She got to see some cool fish under water though.



 Here is the final picture of the shirt filled with sand.....


 Roar!

 We went to walk around on the San Diego temple grounds. It was beautiful.



 Kellen really wanted a "booty" shot.




 Mega, Aiden, Becca and Kellen playing in the trees.



 Our little monkey, Katie.




We found several rolley pollies on the trees. Everyday, before leaving for the beach, we had to make houses for them so they wouldn't leave....they left anyway.
