BUSY WEEK

Wow... I can't believe last week has come to an end. It was non stop go.... and non stop fun!

We went swimming with friends in our freezing cold pool water... which our complex "swears" is heated! But I highly doubt it.
We went to the beach with friends. The men focused most of their time on a sand castle that was wrecked only 30 minutes later by all the wild kids.
 Jackson and the boys raced the waves!
 Clara loved looking for sand crabs with Jed!
 The next day was Disneyland! We haven't been for over a month, so it was so nice to be back. It was almost 90 degrees and a bit crowded - but still worth it!
 I talked Jackson into going on the Grizzly Rapids with me. I forgot how scary it was and Jackson was freaking out. The kid is so brave that he refused to cry - but his worried eyes, stiff body, and straight face said it all - I felt like the worst mom! We were totally soaked, which felt good in the heat. I hope I didn't traumatize him.
 Cotton candy. Yum. I think Scott might be the only person in the entire world to not like it. What a weirdo!
Jackson picks Scott for 90 percent of the rides he goes on. But after I saw this picture, I realized I just might not be as much fun... ha ha. I love how much Jack loves his dad. 
After Disney I had a bridal shower for one of Scotts friends at school that is getting married. It was such a fun shower. We played some really funny games. Way to go Rach on the planning ;)
 Catherine! We can't wait to have you out here in Cali!
My friend has a lemon tree in her back yard. I love lemons and use them with almost everything so she sent me home with a huge bag! One day the kids helped me juice the lemons so that we could make "Lemonade". We have since made 2 batches and it is delicious! 
Friday night was Scotts end of year Dental Banquet. "The Show Go's On". It was a fancy dinner on the balcony of a restaurant that over looked the city. It was soooo much fun! We loved getting all fancied up and spending the night with good friends, eating good food, and laughing at all of his "drunk" classmates.

 Christina and Kiran. These lovely ladies go to school with Scott.

And here is the best part of the whole week...

Clara slept in until 10 am on Saturday. And this is what we found when we pulled her out of her crib. I love her hair!!!

Hey McCall, I love your blue dress that you wore to your husbands school banquet. Where did you find it? will you e-mail me and let me know (jessica_laub@hotmail.com)
Looks like you guys are doing great in California! I am so jealous that you get to go to the beach and Disneyland all the time. We are stuck in Utah in the rain and cold :(

Hi McCall! It sounds like you are always busy, and always having fun! You should get a prize for always being up to date on your blog... :)

Chris knew I was trying to do a dragon cake and sent me this link. http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Fire-Breathing-Dragon-Cake If you have something specific you want to make... I would just fb him and see if he has any ideas! By the way, I love your blue dress!
