beach, basketball, and disneyland



raegan has been getting more and more brave with her walking around. she still cannot walk on her own, but she loves to walk around with her little push toy!

we have had a very busy weekend. on friday, bryan was able to come home early at about 1:00. we had a great day hanging out and relaxing. on friday night, anne and simon came over to have bryan make some bleaching trays for them. after they were done, they decided to stay for a bit. bryan and simon played halo 2 all night while me and anne watched a girlie movie, just like old times.



on saturday, bryan needed to go down to lake forest to make some bleaching trays for len (the guy who scuba certified him). after he was done, we decided to go to the beach. we went down to laguna beach and played for a while. it was quite overcast and the water was freezing, but we still had a ton of fun.




raegan is no longer afraid of the sand. she really loves it, in fact, i think she loves it too much. she was eating it constantly. yuk! grace still loves the water. she would ask us to take her 'swimming'. which translates to... getting her feet wet. she loves to stand at the edge of the water and let the waves get her feet and legs wet. the waves were pretty big, so a couple of times she got splashed up to her neck. despite the cold, she had a great time and didn't want to leave.


on saturday night, bryan decided it was time to shave his beard.


after 'the shave', he went to play basketball in the stake semifinals. they won, so this saturday, they will play in the championship against one of the singles ward teams. unfortunately, we have a date with the thompsons, so we will not be able to make it. good luck cypress 2nd ward.

on monday, bryan had off again, so we went to disneyland. the weather was perfect. grace had so much fun. we rode the monorail from downtown disney and that dropped us off in tomorrowland. we headed for buzz lightyear. the ride would stop periodically for a few minutes, so we were able to score major points. i finally broke 100,000 and bryan was almost to 600,000. yeah, i know, i stink, but it was a lot of fun. after buzz lightyear, we made it over to dumbo, the carousel, the teacups, and small world.




grace was having so much fun, she didn't want to leave. but by the time we got home, it was almost 6 and those kids were tired. with bryan's extended weekend, the girls were able to spend a lot of time with dad and they had a blast!
