CALIFORNIA - Santa Cruz!

The big part of our trip was to spend a week with my whole family in Yosemite. I LOVE Yosemite. It is a BEAUTIFUL place! Before heading to Yosemite, we had a free day and decided to meet two of my sisters and their kids at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. It was a BLAST! GUESS WHO WE MET THERE!!?? KATRINA and ALEX!! :)
Here they are standing next to THE BEST wooden roller coaster anywhere... 
The Giant Dipper. LOVE this roller coaster! :)
Then there is the beach... oh how DJ wanted to go out there and swim so badly! :) but it was time to eat lunch... 
and lookie who else we ran into!!?? LINDSAY, KEIR, CONNER, CAYDEN, ALLIE and AMELIA!!!
After eating lunch, we went on several rides! First, the killer whales!
Then the boat ride...
Driving semi trucks...
Driving groovy cars!
and of COURSE, the Log ride!
Sharing ice cream with cousins!
Rollercoasters!
Bumper cars!
....and THE BEACH! The kids LOVED playing in the sand and water!
 



 
Soon, the sun was starting to go down and it got chilly really fast... sad to leave, and in spite of losing DJ a few times... we did have so much fun!!! Until next time Santa Cruz!
