San Diego

About 2 weeks ago Devon's grandpa passed away. He had been suffering form Parkinson's, but just started to go downhill fast within the last month. He was a great man. We were so glad to be able to attend his funeral. It was really a celebration of his life and all the good that he did. We had a good time visiting with family. We got to stay with some really nice life-time friends of Devon's grandparents the first night. Spencer called them Grandma and Grandpa too. After the funeral we stayed with Devon's aunt and uncle in San Diego.
We didn't get any pictures of the funeral, but we did get some pictures at the zoo on Friday.
James' sunglasses stayed on for about 1 second- but it was a cute second!

I think Spencer liked this Panda more than the real ones. He kept saying, "That was not a real Panda, just someone in a costume."

Spencer and fish- he is always enthralled by them, even when there are beautiful birds flying all around- he chooses the fish!

Spencer is literally talking to these gorillas- at least he has lots of imagination!

Spencer loves maps.

Here are some more random pictures. I know I always post a lot of pictures- but you should see how many Devon takes!










On Saturday it was Devon's cousin McKay's baptism. Spencer talks about getting baptized every time we read scriptures now. I am grateful we could be there for that.
Once again we just got pictures of the fun stuff. After the baptism we did what Spencer had been waiting for the whole trip- went swimming the the Robert's pool. It was a little chilly- but a lot of fun!

McKay was a crazy slider!

I was glad I spent $2 on floaties for the kids so Spencer could go down the slide too!

James preferred climbing the stairs to playing in the cold water.

We had a great spur-of-the-moment trip. Thanks Tom and Traci for letting us stay again. Now it's off to Texas next week!
