Our last day, spent @ Seal Beach

Carlee and Landen "getting a tan"!!

Landen buried up to his neck in the sand

Logan getting buried

Livvy wanted to get buried in the sand. However, it wasn't enough for her. She kept piling the sand up higher and higher, then the tide came in and flooded all around her. She just looked at the water and giggled and kept going!! It didn't bother her in the least! She's a funny kid.

Carlee, Landen and Audrey after Uncle Jared (or daddy to Audrey) dug a hole and buried them in the sand (per the kids request)!

The hole being dug and the kids starting to get buried...

Livvy and Jared playing in the sand

Carlee and Mike boarding into shore

See that little speck out infront of the BIG wave??? That's Mike and he's NOT a little guy. The waves got really big our last day at the beach. We later found out that there were some tremors along the San Andres fault that day!! Mike had a good time boogie boarding and body surfing since the waves were awesome!

We had an amazing trip and were so glad to share it with our family!

Disney continued

Disneyland & Seal Beach

All the kids getting ready to go on It's a Small World (which we got stuck on for 30 minutes, UGH!)

Our first night in CA we went to dinner. The waiter spilled a glass of ice water on Carlee so he let her pick ANY dessert off of the REGULAR menu to make up for it. She decided to share it with everyone, it was YUMMY!

Mike and Logan boogie boarding at the beach our first day.

Audrey, Carlee, Nicole and Livvy making sand castles.

Carlee, Mike and Logan

We went to Disneyland and Seal Beach for a family vacation. My parents went and took my sister's son, Landen with them. My brother, Jared, his wife, Nicole and their 3 girls (Aundrey, Livvy and Shelby) went too! We had a blast!

The weather was perfect and the kids had a great time with their cousins.

4th of July fun!

Good timing w/ the camera!

We celebrated 4th of July with Mike's family. We mostly swam and we did eat a little bbq burgers and hot dogs and we did a little more swimming. Then we watched fireworks. It was a lot of fun! Here are a few pics of the kids (and Mike and Scott) playing in the pool.

Logan celebrated his 8th birthday today!

I have a million things to post about but I wanted to get his birthday post done on his birthday.

We had a family party for him on Monday. Everyone (Grandma & Grandpa Pobieglo, Grandma & Grandpa Cronin, Jared, Nicole, Audrey, Livvy, Shelby, Scott, Lindsay, Sara, Jenny, Landen, Jesse (Garrett had to work) and the 4 of us) all got together and went to Logan's Roadhouse (per Logan's request) for dinner. Then, we came back to our house for presents, cake and ice cream! Today, we took Logan and 2 friends (along w/ his sister and our niece, Sara) to Jump & Shout to play for a couple hours then to Dairy Queen for some ice cream. This evening we took the kids to see their new baby cousin, Ryan, who was born on Tuesday. They haven't seen him yet since they weren't allowed at the hospital and he finally came home today. Logan said he had a great day and great birthday! We sure do love Logan and are proud of the boy he's turning into. He's becoming more responsible and trying to help out around the house more. He's definitely grown a lot in the past year and he's eating a ton!

Happy Birthday Logan!
