California Dreamin'

You can't go to California without going to the beach! So that is what we did our first weekend there! We hit Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk! The water was freezing, but the kids had fun in the soft sand and warm sun.

Sara and Brooklyn, the beach babes.

What a good Uncle!

We had a visit from the sweetest dog ever, Mylee. She just sat there and let the kids pet her,as she drooled all over them.

Our next trip was to Jamestown, CA. It is an old rail town where a lot of movies were filmed. Like, "Back to the Future III" and much more.

They dressed up in pioneer clothes...I told them not to smile. They were really having fun, I promise :)

After Christian flew in the real fun could begin...

We went to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. Which is a Sea World and Six Flags put together.

Yes there is MORE...

You can't have summer without some WATER SKIING!!! I got right up (of course) without skiing in 6 years.
