We were back at it at the school! Piper had her Cheer Banquette the next evening! Yay! Congrats Piper to an amazing Flag Football season! She loved getting her award and seeing her cutest little friends! After the banquette Daddy took them for ice cream! Spoiled them! lol Now we are onto Basketball Season! Go Eagles!
While Honz was finishing up at the Cheer banquet and taking the kids to ice cream I was throwing a Surprise 40th Birthday Celebration with Lyndsey for my Bestie Shayla! We never pull off a surprise on her! lol and boy did we get her! The whole evening was so much fun! Owe it all to Lynsey! I'm just the added helper! Lyndsey did it all! We loved celebrating our girl! She is 1 in a million and I' so lucky to have her in my life and to have her as my bestie! She is everything amazing and then some! Happy 4oth Shayla! We love you!

Oh Man my cutest Cashy had a huge wk!!! He had his Flag Football Banquette! He loved getting his medal and award! So proud!!! Drum Roll Please!!!!!!! You are looking at our newest Great American at our school! Yes you read that right! He passed off all the crazy requirements in less then 2 mons! There's 6 different requirements that all require lots of memorization!  Wahoo! He's #5 out of all the 5th grade students to get it! He's #1 in her 2 class rotation to get it! Wahoo! Man is he dedicate and determined once her gets his mind to it! Fun Fact when he received the Great American packet at the beginning of the school year he told me he wasn't doing it! Then the school started a Great American club where you go and practice learning the different requirements! I signed him up with out telling him until the club started! lol He went and had a blast! He loved going and practicing and it totally motivated him! He quickly began to pass each thing off 1 by 1! We are extremely proud of him! He is the Greatest American we know! We love you Cashy! Another fun fact: see the belt? He put that on on the day he passed off the last requirement for good luck! It's her red white and blue belt with flag and eagle! It was the best good luck charm! You did it!!! #5!

Knott's Berry Farm and San Diego Zoo!

It's that time of year again!! Our annual Knott's Berry Farm and San Diego Zoo Trip! We have been doing this same trip on the same weekend for the last 16yrs! Wahoo! We always have the best time and look forward to this amazing fun trip! First stop Knott's Berry Farm!! 
It was a beautiful day! The weather was  perfect! The lines were perfect! it was probably our least busiest day there! Zero crowds and with that we walked onto so many rides with not even a wait! It was amazing!
Lot's of picture taking is what I do best! lol and all my people are such great sports!
Love making memories with my favorite people! The action shots are so good too!
How fun is this!!! Penny's cute Brigham just happened to be on a baseball tournament with his club team down in Cali! ....and.... just so happened to be at Knott's on Friday the same day we were there! It was so fun to run into him! Of course we had to take all the pics! He is such a good time! The 2 of them got to ride a few rides together and see each other on and off through out the day! It was so exciting and fun for all of us! We love that Brigham so much! Such a great boy! 
Piper was able to ride almost everything and got so sad when she wasn't tall enough! She is such a dare devil! lol Not afraid at all! She even did the scary drop from the sky one 2 times in a row!  lol
Piggy back rides and bumper cars! We had the best day!
Non stop fun eating and riding!
Seriously the best day! Right at the end of the day still with zero lines Cash had been so scared of the Silver Bullet ride and would not go on it! We talked him into it and he was obsessed with it! Love it! So Cash and Blake rode the Silver Bullet 8 times in  a row! lol  Got off and back off with zero wait time! It was insane! I did it about 4 times in a row! lol Penny and Brigham rode it a few times in  a row together too  but it was just insane there was no lines for any of us!! So freakn awesome! 
Saturday! Down in San Diego we went to the ZOO!! Another one of our most favorite places to be! We love the zoo! We love all the animals! 
Walked and walked! The animals were extra silly this day! lol
Beautiful weather! Beautiful people! Beautiful animals!
The annual climb the camel pic! lol We have been doing this same pic for 16 years! lol The kids getting bigger each year! Love when I get my candy corn cotton candy! It is delicious!

Finished the day with shopping the shop! Piper picked out her spirit  animal! Cash loved this little giraffe! Penny ended up with a the cutest animal safari tee! 
After the zoo we tried this cute yummy Pizza place for dinner! Got up Sunday and headed home! Before leaving San Diego we had to eat breakfast for the 2nd time this weekend at Crème De La Crepe! It was incredible! It will definitely be our new breakfast place when we come to San Diego for our annual trip! It's always sad when our trips have to come to an end but I sure love our traditions and making these memories! Sure love my people! My traveling people!
