Beginning of August

Saturday, August 1st, we went to another dinner and a movie. This time we took the kids. We found a different theater in long beach that was a little cheaper and was playing the Minion movie. The kids had a blast. They loved the reclining chairs and the ability to order food whenever they wanted. :)


Tuesday, the 4th, I took the kids to a Lego Mini Build. It is a free activity the Lego Store puts on once a month. You have to be quick though and sign them up right when it is available online. I was glad we got a spot.



They built Kangaroos


Here I am at 26 weeks along. Getting bigger!


Emma was having a little too much fun one Saturday. She built something she could put he horse on to pretend she was riding it. I thought it was pretty cute and clever. She had fun!



After Church, one Sunday, Mike noticed we had things growing on our tree. Apparently, we have a fig tree. Mike found some ripe ones that weren't too bad. They aren't my favorite but he enjoyed taking them to work. The kids had fun helping him navigate where they were on the tree.


And I enjoyed taking pictures :)


Also, on that Sunday, we went and had a bbq in a local park they have here called the Pirate Park. Everything is pirate themed and the whole playground is a big ship. It's pretty cool! It is the biggest park in Pasadena with a ton of grassy areas and bbq pits.


This is what happens when you spin too hard :)



Found Emma this way :)


They had these petty cool swings. The kids thought it felt like a ride.

The Rest of July

On July 11th, we took the kids to see a classic, Back to the Future! It is their 30th anniversary this year, so a lot of places were showing it. I was excited when I found out the Movies in a Park in Pasadena was going ot play it. I knew we had to go! It was a lot of fun!



Eating burgers from one of the food trucks



I wasn't feeling well on July 17th, so we stayed in our pajamas all day and played games. Here are the kids playing twister...snowman style :)




We sadly had to say goodbye to another missionary. Sis. Argueta left us on July 20th. We have gotten really close to the Sis. Missionaries. I often give them rides and they invite investigators to our home for FHE and we have dinner with them a lot. It is sad when they go..they really become friends. I made her favorite dessert, homemade cheesecake! It was delicious!


Taking fun pictures. The one on the far left is her companion (who has since left) Sis. Iaboo. She is the funniest lady! The lady next to her is Stephanie. She just got baptized and we invited her over for dinner and then the missionaries came over for dessert.


 On July 20th, we decided to walk to Rite Aid and get some ice cream from their ice cream parlor they have in the store. It was a longer walk than expected especially being pregnant and all but we made it and it was yummy!
