California Vacation- Part One

We recently got back from an awesome vacation to California with my family. Since I took a bazillion pictures on our vacation to (okay, I'm exaggerating a little. I only took about 2,000)_ I am going to break this up into three parts. 

Since we drove, we got up real early hoping the kiddos would sleep a good part of the way. This was not the case, but it was okay. 

That's my sleepy little boy.

Our first stop was in Scipio, Utah. We always stop there for breakfast at a park/church. It's tradition. 

Jax was pleased as punch to be fed and out of his car seat. 

There is a reason we call Scipio "The Land of Random Dogs"

There are always a bunch of random owner-less dogs running around.

This year we also saw a turkey. A TURKEY!

One of the many awesome toilets we got to use along the way.

Next, we stopped at Snow Park in St. George to eat and play (also tradition).

Ummm . .? Somebody grab him please.

We stayed in Excalibur in Las Vegas for two nights. It was fun, but as I'm sure you can guess, not so kid friendly. 

Tyler was convinced Excalibur was a temple.

When Hazel saw it she said, "This castle is perfect for me"

We like to make Kati push around the kids so she looks like a teenage mother.

We all had so much fun playing at the FAO Schwartz Toy Store in Caesars Palace. . .

Maybe a little too much fun.

Hobo. Check out his sweet braid.

Hazel was so very tired.

Good thing her daddy carried her

Gross. 

Vegas is not complete without a midget Elvis.
