While the other three boys were enjoying the splash zone Monty and Trey were just chillin'
Kory getting attacked by an eel! Oh, maybe he's doing the attacking!
I totally love it when one of the boys puts their arms around each other! Kyle was being a wonderful big brother showing Kory the fish that looked like Dory!
Splash Zone fun--don't they look like they are having so much fun!:) HAH!
After the aquarium we took a stroll down Cannery Row and got a strawberry chocolate crape! It was so delicious. Then we took the boys to Dennis the Menace park. It's a park my parents use to take us to when we were little, so we are trying to keep the tradition alive. The boys loved it. The funnest part was watching them climb the rock wall. It was a lot of work and we even saw a few tears along the way because it was hard, but the success when they finally reached the top was worth it! I am kicking myself that I left my camera in the car, but oh well...we'll be back!Poor Kory was so afraid of the huge bridge they have there. It's really long and takes a lot of courage to go across. I tired to get him to go across, but he wouldn't. So, I decided maybe next time. After being at the park for about and hour he was up at the bridge with Tyler and having so much fun he just started running across. Monty and I were down below and so proud of him, when just as he hit the middle some big kid ran onto the bridge causing it to swing back and forth. Kory stopped in his tracked grabbed onto the side and burst into tears. While heading up to resuce him I saw him putting out his arms to another dad on the bridge. The man was very nice and carried him to the other side. I kind of freaked me out that he went to a stranger so easily. I don't know that I've ever talked to him about strangers--either that or he was in survival mode and everything I taught him went out the window! We were proud of him for giving it a try! Go Kory!
On the way home a lady ran into Monty's car! We were parked and she didn't see us. She seemed really nice at the time and acted like she felt bad for what she did so we decided that when she called us we were going to just tell her not to worry about it, we'd fix the car, but she hasn't returned any of our phone calls, so now our hearts have been hardened and we are going to turn her in. How rude.

Wow! Sounds like you guys had an adventure. We learned the hard way about car accident when I was prego with Chloe. Sadly not many people can be trusted these days.Christian and Chase had a blast at that park too when we were up there In Dec.Dustin has fond memories of it !!
What a fun day, it sounds like you had. Those are the memories I think kids will remember the most -- just the happy times spent together as a family. I love the arm around Kory too -- such a sweet picture.
Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun up there. I was sad to hear Kory's story. We have had are share accidents like that the one you had. the green goblin has dents all around it because we did not have the heart to contact peoples insurance companies. I seem to only get hit by starving students. One was even wearing BYU sweat pants. Why can't we ever get hit by rich people that want to pay us off in cash on the spot?
That sounds like a packed, fun day. You are so adventurous with all those kids. Your giving me hope that I can still have a life with 4.
I can't believe that old lady hasn't called...maybe she has short term memory loss and doesn't remember the accident. Guess you better find her so you can refresh her memory! Seriously...you are WAY too nice if you don't contact her insurance.
LOVE the pictures...
Family trips together are so special. How fun to spend the day at Monterey. I love it there.
I am feeling better with my asthma but I am afriad to run at the track because thats when I feel it the most.
Gregs finals are going to be very hard on him and I will be a single mother for a while but I am just looking forward to Greg's graduation and I can't believe it's just around the corner. May 17is the day!!
