Santa Monica Pier - Hurray for Veteran's Day




We had the day off of school (thank you Veterans!!) and decided to play.
We went to Santa Monica Pier with my friend Leslie and her kids Merceda & Daxton, and my brother in law Memo & my nieces.

This shot above is Lucas doing the ....what would you call it??......bungee jumping thing for kids. Luke, you were so funny. The kid before you was a energy ball crazy man. You get on and are jumping but very conservatively. Were you scared perhaps? You didn't do anything crazy, and I could tell you were having a good time, but seriously dude....it's okay to bust out and get all crazy once in a while. Especially while you are strapped to huge bungee cords and are jumping on a super sized trampoline. Get crazy!


Next the kids did the free fall ride. This ride is made for rascals 3 and up. They only rode it like 166 times. And each picture (and there are many) is freaking hysterical.
Check out Daxton. So cute.


I'm telling ya.....a lot of funny faces.



I love how uncontrollable their laughter was. The grown ups (who did not go on thank you very much) were laughing almost as much as the kids.



And then we moved on to tea cups and yellow school buses....


Check out Violet just chillin'

Oh my ladies....how I love them.


The difference between boys and girls....
The boys were pumping that thing as fast as it would go.
The girls? A little push here and there but were mostly smiling at everyone around them. :)

Merceda was such a good sport. She couldn't go on any of the rides and she was still all smiles. We love you Merceda.


Too much. There is just too much cute right there. Oh but wait...there's more...


What a great day.
