Summer Round Up: Part One California

With the easy days of summer drawing to a close I figured it was about time to look back at our summer adventures here on the blog.

We had friends visit us in June and the kids and I hitched a ride back to California with them while Kevin stayed in Switzerland for a few more weeks.

Twenty five hours door to door and the kids were awesome on the flights. Phew! Once we got to California the kids were in heaven, with cousins to play with and tons to do. We celebrated my parent's 50 years of marriage with a big family reunion complete with a Fuller Family Olympics. Here are a few pictures to highlight some of the events.
We started it off with the 100ish meter run...

After, we moved on to the donut on a string eating contest.
Anna really went for it!
 

We washed off with some rules optional apple bobbing.
There was an event for everyone, we even had a show to showcase all our talents. Here is my Dad playing the violin!
We had such a blast being together. The house was packed full of cousins and siblings so there was some major cooking and eating happening everyday. 

 Of course, with William around, there was plenty of pasta!

We celebrated Kevin and the kid's birthday with a piƱata and cupcakes, but for some reason I can't find I picture of it. oops!
The kids took swimming lessons and greatly improved their ability in the pool. They also had a great time making pottery and hanging out with cousins.
It was a fun filled trip to California and we can't wait to go back next summer!
