Grandpa and Grandma Roxie
Just so happens to be that one of Kieran's best friends Stockton, his great grandma is married to Kieran's great grandpa. We are good friends with Stockton's family the Streett's and we have been trying to talk our grandparents in to come visit forever. Well they finally came and we had a great time!
Grandpa Beck, me, and Kieran
Kieran and Roxie.
We thought it would be a great idea to take them to the Ronald Reagan Museum in Simi Valley.....well apparently everyone else thought it was a good idea too because it was packed. We waited for over an hour to get in but once we were in it was really neat to see.
A piece of the Berlin Wall
Grandpa gave us a speech:)
By this time all four boys were getting restless. Luckily at the end of the museum there was Air Force One and cars and a helicopter, Kieran and Stockton immetiately changed their mood and were so excited.
Boys will be boys!
They were pretending to be air planes and were flying all over.
The next day we headed down to the Redondo Pier for some fresh clam chowder and fish and chips.
We got serenaded by a Mariachi Band.

Utah
We decided to head up to Utah for a long weekend to meet Kieran's newest cousin Gemma.
We put Rhys in a forward facing car seat to make the ride more enjoyable for not only Rhys but all of us.:) And indeed it worked him and Kieran were both very pleasant the whole 12 hours in the car.
We stayed with Johnathan's sister Janice the first couple nights. Johnathan stayed up late with the kids and Abby the dog to watch Finding Nemo. Kieran was really paying attention and started bawling at the end, when he thought Nemo was dead and then his dad wasn't going to find Nemo, it was very dramatic.
After the blessing we had soup and rolls at Janice's the cousins had so much fun together now they they are a bit older. ( I didn't take near as many pictures as I would have liked I didn't even get one of Gemma in her little blessing dress...ahh)
All the cute Brandon grandkids. Kieran, Emily, Gemma, Jade, Rhys, and Liam.
My parents drove down for a day to see Kieran and Rhys since they don't get the see the kids much living so far away.
We went to lunch then took my parents to Cabella's. Kieran always loves it there with all the animals.
I had been expecting freezing weather and it surprisingly wasn't that cold, until the last night when there was a snow storm. Kieran loved it! I was so pretty when it snowed, with the mountains all white.
Some deer just randomly in Johnathan's parents neighborhood.
And Rhys started crawling forward the day we left.
