Summer Lovin...Had me a BLAST!!

ok...so it's been a while.  i've been busy.  there is a bunch to catch up on, so happy scrolling.

SANDY EGO!!

This year for the Hoyt family reunion we went to the Sunny Side!

A week with the Hoyt crew only left us wishing for more...or was it a week 

with the salty ocean breeze, hours of shiftless sun shine and friendly sport with an endless horizon and warm curling waves that left us in quite the forlorn state as we journeyed back to Utah? 

We took time out of our busy inactivity to indulge in a family photo-opp. 

The scenery was perfect.  

As the sun sank toward twilight, our scenery inspired creativity.

Creativity which brought duplicates of memories.

I love shadow pictures.  I can make a silly face and you wouldn't know it!

This was taken on the foreground of my future backyard...

and the creativity continues...

All the 'young' adults posing during an exciting game of 

around-the-beach paddle ball.

Might I add?  CHAMPION!  (for one of the games)

Jared built a small city of tunnels...one of which was 

large enough for chillins to crawl through.

All the younger girlies.  We got loads of pictures of this crew.  Why is it that most of the pictures are of the little ones?  Once you hit a certain age...your life is no longer voluntarily documented.  You must ask for your picture to be taken.

I like how Jman is posing in the back!

DISNEYLAND

Tis true...we again took time out of our busy tanning time 

to visit the Happiest Place on Earth.

Here we are on the Tower of Terror!  The Hoyt fam takes up 

the whole of the right side.  We were lucky to make it out of this ride dry.

I was joined by the motley gang for a morning of Yoga.  

(pic is out of place...continue with Dland pics)

Auntie Maegs, Kaia and cousin Kendall on Dumbo.  

The line for that ride was...Dumbo.

Brothers.  Ya.  Truly.

At Last!  The moment we as parents all wait for...sleeping bundles of Joy!

Boggie boarding was def. a highlight.  I decided I could probably go pro!

( naw )

We had a talent showcase one fine ocean-breezin evening.

Kaia and Jason proved to be stars as the didn't shy away from showing their best talent.

Bugging eachother.

J birdie.  One talented soul.  He can touch his toe!

Jared's on the spot finger bouncing routine.

My, not so on the spot, hula.  

quite the unexpected work out.

The time came when we had to say adieu to those warm waves and endless days...we will go back.  After all...someone needs to keep the fire warm for the visitors we will one day have on the Sunny Side of things!
