Headed to Fresno

My friend Brooke recently moved to California with her four boys.  Kane and I decided that while Jon was away in Colorado at the Academy, we would head to Fresno for a visit.

My friend Jessica, who lives in Vegas, agreed to watch Basher and Lucy.  We drove down there to drop the dogs off and then flew out from Vegas.  While we were only there for a short period, we did manage to visit the park and check out some birds.  It was so funny, we were walking up to a group of birds when one of the bigger birds squawked at us very loudly.  I screamed and scooped Kane into the air, I think my scream scared Kane more than the bird.  

I love this picture, it was taken outside of Brooke's aunt and uncle's house.  Kane was holding a rock.  I just love the pose!

Daniel, Brooke's third son, celebrated his 5th birthday during our visit.  It's so nice to be able to see all the Jimenez boys growing up!

We went for sushi.  Kane loved the sweet potato tempura and garlic edamame.  He won't eat a noodle of any type, or rice, but he will eat sweet potatoes and edamame!  I am not complaining.

There is a place called Jon's Incredible Pizza, it's similar to Chuckie Cheese, but more rides and better food.  Cristian is riding the bumper cars.  

Cristian and Gabriel made sure that Kane was a part of all the fun, he really enjoyed himself!

Alex managed to wiggle his way onto a high platform all by himself!

Kane and I rode on a train of cars, he doesn't look too sure in this picture...

Gabriel jumping for joy at Storybook Land.

Daniel is headed down the slide in the house from Goldilocks And The Three Bears.

This is a castle in Storybook Land, it was a very cute park.

Humpty Dumpty (pre-fall)

Kane really enjoyed Brooke's cat, Rain.  Rain enjoyed Kane a bit less, he would climb under the bed.  Kane finally decided that he would follow Rain.  He looked like Pooh when he gets stuck in holes.  It was pretty comical.

Fortunately, the plane was very empty so we were able to use Kane's car seat for our return trip.  It was so nice having two free hands!  Kane enjoyed his ride too.  The guy in front of Kane may not have enjoyed it so much though, I couldn't get Kane to stop kicking his seat.

Finally, we made it home.  Our trip was great but it's always nice coming home.
