Our Saturday

For years, literally, our boys have been begging for a sandbox. We have put them off until I can't take it anymore! We are finally doing it this year! We are also putting in a small garden. Anyway, we finally decided to break ground on Saturday. It was quite a project, but it is amazing that our kids, and a couple of friends, hung in there for 3 hours! We of course used bribery, Costco hot dogs for lunch, and a candy bar after we were done! It was a lot of work, but the hole is dug! We now need to figure out how to get the edging we want and some sand! The kids are beyond themselves. They even go out and play in the hole! Here are some pics.

Libby even helped!

That's a lot of dirt!

That's a lot of work!

Almost done!

Tilling the garden

California

We had such a fun time in California! The highlight of the trip was Disneyland. We hadn't been for 6 years. Bryson barely remembers that trip! We all loved it! We got lucky and it was raining the first day, which kept the crowds down. We also utilized the Fast Pass system and hardly had any wait time that day. The second day was a joke. It was Spring Break in Utah and California and the place was packed! It was hard to maneuver the stroller. We still managed okay with the Fast Passes, and had a great day. The highlight for Libby was meeting her idols, the Princesses. We only got pictures with two, but she saw others from a distance. Sleeping Beauty even waved, winked, and blew a kiss!



It was a magical two days. We also were able to spend some time with family and friends. We went to Huntington Beach where we were literally attacked by Lady Bugs. Libby was NOT amused. There was also a ton of tar/asphalt on the beach that got all over everyone and wouldn't come off! It was annoying! Oh well, we still had a great time! Here are some other pictures!
