Benson celebration

Celebrating Benson's birthday California style! Grandma and Grandpa McLane threw a party for Benson at the park for his birthday. So fun!

Girl's Weekend

These are some of my favorite people on the planet. Friends for almost a decade. This is our 3rd girls weekend and Lauren and Kati were able to come this time!!! WOOHOO! It's hard when we are all having babies all the time!

We shopped, we ate delicious food, stayed at a fun hotel, went karoekeing (how does one spell that crazy word?!), went stand-up paddle-boarding in the harbor, ate more delicious food, and just had a blast with one another! I love these girls! 

Picking out some awesome tunes!

Shopping at the Spectrum

Jessica, Robin and I paddle-boarding

Dessert at BJs in Laguna Beach!

And we're off again!

First stop after arriving in California--head to the LA Temple! Cason napped in the car, Josh took a work call, and Grandma Cathy, Benson and I wandered around the Temple grounds. BEAUTIFUL!

On our way home we stopped at Tito's Tacos

YW New Beginnings

It's nice having so much Nautical stuff laying around my house! It made decorating for Young Women New Beginnings this evening a BREEZE!

Benson's 6th birthday party

Party favors are ready!

Benson's party was at Excel Gymnastics this year. We ordered dinner and the kiddos played for 2 hours. It was the EASIEST party I've EVER EVER EVER hosted! And the Benson has a blast, which made it all worth it!
