They grow up so fast!

This past week Cynjyn was invited to go to California with her friend Alexa. Alexa's grandparents were taking her and her little brother there for a little vacation. Her older brother couldn't go at the last minuet, so they invited C so A would have someone to hang around with. Cynjyn thought it over for oh about...2 seconds and then promptly said YES!! She told me she thought she'd only get a little homesick at night because she'd be having too much fun the rest of the time. They left Tuesday morning at 8am and that night their big adventure was an Angel's baseball game. Cynjyn got a free goodie bag and said she enjoyed her time there.

The next day, they spent the whole day at the beach. Debbie (A's grandma) had bought them boogie boards and they surfed the day away.

Taz watched Forest Gump on TV a few weeks ago and it is now his favorite movie. It just so happened that that night they ate at Bubba Gumps!! Cynjyn was excited to show this picture to Taz.

They went into Hollywood that night and went to the Chinese theater and the star walk of fame.

This is the prints of the HP #7 movie stars.

Apparently there were fountains there?

They then spent a day at Soak City a big water park affiliated with Knott's Berry Farm.

And then to the beach for a little sunset watching.

and chocolate covered bananas.

They wore their new "hollywood" t-shirts to the lego store one night. C got a HP lego wand that you could make yourself there in the store.

They went to Downtown Disney and she bought a panda build-a-bear with an Eeyore costume. Her favorite souvenier from her trip.

She called us every night to tell us about her day and didn't sound too homesick. She said she was only sad the first night and then true to her prediction, too tired at night to be homesick after that. We were glad she had fun, we missed her, and were grateful she made it home safe.
