Our stay at the CRIP-INN

If you asked my girls, 'the happiest place on earth' is not Disneyland, but California. They love to visit their Grammy and Papa, the Olsingchs, and the Southwicks. Go ahead... try and spot a picture where they aren't happy...

A night in the Spa, just me and the girls. We sent Tino back to Utah, while we stayed and played for a bit.

Disneyland has Mickey Mouse, Crippenland has Autumn Cat. She is very popular with all my girls.


Samara LOVES animals... but she is VERY afraid to touch them. She really wants to, but her fear often stops her. Well here she is being BRAVE!




Samara stealing all of Papa's Broccoli... she loves that stuff!




Grammy and Nani baking a treat for Daddy



My little nephew Dallin... what a cute little guy!


Our BIG FHE at the Southwick home



Rockin' out after FHE... I am giving my father a warning " You better be dancing too!"





Papa's truck, one of the attractions of Crippenland.


Grammy and Papa Crippen and their Island grandbabies.



My favorite spot in the world... the porch swing outside my childhood home.


Smoothies at Grammy's Place. Samara is a counter sitter. It allows me to get stuff done, while keeping track of this little one.



Our grown -up time, I think it started after 10:30 pm, and lasted into the early morning! We ate junk food, played a game that accountants like ;), and talked the night away. Good times!

So fun!!! I wish i was there. Kea is so photogenic. SUCH a cute girl. And I LOVE that picture of Mom ad Nani baking! You know, home really is the happiest place on earth. Ditto to the porch swing comment. It is just a happy spot. Remember the upside down picture we took of us on that swing? Anyway, I love our home. Let's go there right now!

Great recap! I am sad we did not get to see you when you were here. You have a very special family, I look up to your parents very much, they are still so in love... so cute.

Even though I've only been there once, I have to agree that your parents make a very happy place for a home. It's so fun to look the pics of your family having such a great time. Tell Carrie that I'm still waiting to hear from her....I know she is having a blast living in the happiest place on earth, but she's got to have a couple of seconds for us lowly peeps freezing our muli's off in the desert!

I already miss your parents. It was so nice to see them on the cruise. It was funny how many times Chad and I ran into them unexpectedly. Anyways, you made me miss home but what makes my story sad is I can't visit the one I miss :( It still is a treat to go to Groveland but there's no place like Wildomar...where your dreams come true! Love you!!!
