I have no excuses for not updating our blog... We have been so busy, but can't exactly tell you what we've been doing! Just the normal everyday boring stuff. I am finally getting around to posting our pix from the Landon family trip to California in January. Bryan's whole family went to Disneyland for a week in January. We spent 4 days at Disney Land, 1 day at Newport beach, and then a few of us went to the San Diego Wild Animal park. Then everyone but us headed home. We had a lot of fun at Disneyland, but most of all my boys loved the beach. They love to dig and make sand castles. The water was absolutely freezing, but it didn't stop them from getting right in. They all body surfed with Bryan and loved it. We saw quite a few Dolphins right off the coast as well, that was pretty cool.
Our family stayed in Cali for the 2nd Anaheim Supercross race on Saturday. Those of you who know our family, know we love motorcycles. We jumped at the chance to stay a couple of extra days in Cali to go to the race. We spent the day walking through the pits and then watched the race that night. It was awesome, the boys loved every minute of it.
I will have to admit that the most memorable part of the trip was the ride home. We drove the Suburban. My sister and her husband were in Mesquite. NV for the weekend, so we stopped and said hi to them on our way through. My brother Dennis and his friends were also there riding dirt bikes, and were headed home as well. We got a little past Cedar City, when my bro called, and said his truck was broke down. We drove back about 30 miles, and towed his Ford with a trailer full of m-bikes back to Cedar City - with my suburban. You all know Bryan doesn't drive slow, we were pulling them about 65 mph. I thought the suburban was going to blow up! We towed them to a dealership in Cedar City, and found out there were no rental car places open... it was a Sunday in Utah! So, we piled my brother and his 3 friends into the Suburban, and hooked on to their trailer and emptied all the stuff out of the back of the suburban into the trlr. Keep in mind we already had my 3 boys, husband, and Ryan (our good friend and employee) so 6 people. The Suburban seats 8..... you do the math! Needless to say 2 of Dens friends sat in the very back of the Suburban with no seats. We did give them some blankets and stuff to keep comfy. It was quite a cramped ride home! Our 12 hour drive from CA to home actually took almost 15 hours. It was a very long day. needless to say, we made it in 1 piece!
We have a few more trips planned before the baby comes, lets just hope I make it to them. This weekend is my Niece Teddy Jo's b-day party so we are headed to that, then in a couple of weeks to the Annual Jeep Safari in Moab.
I will post pictures from those trips when I get a moment of peace and quiet... so don't expect them anytime soon!!!

Cute pictures. I know what you mean about so busy, with nothing going on. I feel like this winter is flying by. I don't mind though, I can't wait for warm weather!!!
These pictures are so cute. I had no idea you guys had such an ordeal getting home from CA. I can't wait for us to go on another family adventure...
Whew! What a crazy time! Glad you had fun though. MOAB!! We are headed there this next weekend, I am soooo excited! We don't do the jeep safari thing because it seems like it would be pretty crowded...is it? Anyway, have fun you'll have warmer weather than us, I'm sure!
We need a whole entire vacation dedicated to the beach!
