Sunny California

This post is a little out of order but I decided to finally post even though I don't have all the pictures yet. Back in August we were welcomed by the 70 degree weather of southern California and by all of the Walburger's! It was the first time in 6 years that all of the Walburger clan has been together and it was a sweet reunion. We had a blast with all of Jordan's brothers and families. Everywhere we went we had 10 adults and 13 children. It was such a fun trip and we were so glad we could make it out there to be with everyone! Judy and Gary have carried out a tradition for a number of years now to have a "cousins camp" with all of their grandchildren. It was our first and every day was planned out to a tee of fun activities for all of us.

The first day of Cousins Camp we headed out to San Clemente and spent the day at the beach, which I don't have any pictures from unfortunately, but the kids had a blast. That night we headed out to San Diego to spend the next day at Lego Land! It was a great park for all ages and Drake even got to go on a couple of "big" rides. He was so excited about this roller coaster. We would ask him what he was going to do when he got on and he would hold up his arms and softy scream and he really did hold up his hands the whole time!

The fam took up the entire ride, plus another!

At the end of the day Drake and Eliza just wanted their own space to run around and do their own thing and this dino sand pit was great. The two blondies!

Lego Land also has a water park in it so we spent some time there. Unfortunately it wasn't the warmest day but the kids still seemed to enjoy it! I was in a jacket just watching!

We took a big group picture, which I also need to get, but this was taken before we left for Lego Land. Yes I am large and in charge prego lady.

Another tradition of Cousins Camp is to have a backwards dinner. The cousins LOVE it, what kid wouldn't love eating their dessert first!? A couple of cousins taught Drake to say "Oh yeah baby!"

We came home from San Diego, on the way we stopped at the beach again, and then headed to the country club for some swimming the next couple of days. Drake even went off the high dive and loved it! We also had some great dinners out on the back porch and Drake absolutely LOVED playing with all of his cousins.

It was a great Walburger family reunion and Gary and Judy did a lot of planning to make it such a fun week. We loved being able to see all of Jordan's brother's families that we don't get to see that often and hope for more Cousins Camps!!
