Redondo Trip & Bryant Wedding

We headed down south for a friend of Zippy's wedding from when he was a little boy. Kevin's mom and Grammie are still great friends and we see them a few times a year. We were so excited to join them for their wedding in Orange!

Since we were going down there, we decided to go for an extra day and see the Deierling Family. We had so much fun, playing in the back yard, swimming, riding bikes, playing at the beach...




 Grey thinking about boogie boarding...after being crashed by the first wave, he decided he would rather play on the beach :)



 Party time! Let the wedding begin!

 I think we sat down too early because Zoe needed to get up before the ceremony even began!
 Beautiful bride
 Cake pops made by the lovely mother of the groom for place settings. The kids got goody bags full of toys and chicken nuggets for dinner. They even had someone making cotton candy there. Yum!
 Uncle Ty winning the best brother in law of the year award for smuggling wine back to our table :) Grey looks like he could be his security guard ;)
Zoe with soon-to-be Auntie Rory wearing Auntie Zephy's necklace

We were out past 11 that night at the wedding and the kids were rock stars the whole time, dancing, playing, having a great time. When we went to leave, the valet went to get our car and it was dead. They had left the head lights on! Luckily, they were able to jump it and Matt drove us safely back to the hotel.
 The kids were so ready to go the next day...
 Zoe was so done she was trying to do somersaults in the restaurant at breakfast. Good thing we were the only ones there (it took us about 45 minutes to get our food!)
 Zippy passed out for the ride back north
 Sibling love. This always melts my heart when they hold hands :)
 They had a photo booth so we had to take a picture of all the girls :)


 And we can't forget the special guest appearance when we were at the Dieirling house! Paige happened to be in California (when is she not?). She drove all the way out to come spend a few hours playing with us! It was so much fun, our kids are basically the exact same age (just within weeks of each other) and we hadn't been together since we were pregnant with our second. Thanks, Paige,for coming to play!
 Only Paige could manage getting a good picture of 4 kids 3 years and under...
Of course, the big group picture didn't go so well but it is still ADORABLE :)
