Finally...

I'm sure we will post quite a bit over the next few days to try and catch up but we are finally posting about our trip to CA. Ezra did amazingly well on the plane. He stayed awake a lot more than I expected but was totally happy. He loved to look at all the other people and they were, for the most part, happy to see him.

We got there super late, but started the next morning off bright and early.

Ezra got to sleep in his daddy's old crib!

Ezra got to meet the Doug Bowling family for the first time that morning and then we headed over to Great Granpa B. and Aunt Sharron's house for a family picnic. There we met Lily and Ava for the first time, and everyone got to meet Ezra for the first time (exculding Bob's parents).

After that we went Bowling and none of us really lived up to our name, but we had a good time.

Ezra and Ava got to know each other while the rest of us bowled.

That night we had a BBQ at Dave and Jessica's. Ezra got a little slap happy he was so tired, but the cousins took full advantage of making him laugh. My favorite part was when Ian asked me if he was laughing or crying. (They both sound a bit like a donkey.)


Captain Insano (Parker) started it with this... which led to this...


All in all it was a busy but fun first day in CA. Ezra even survived his first time feeling heat over 100.

I love kids laughter. I will tickle Makena for ever just to hear her laugh. Nothing brightens my day faster than children laughing. Glad you guys had a great trip.

As you can tell from those videos my kids are pretty much obsessed with Ezra. Parker was laughing the whole time she watched it.
