I was all set to do a big, gigantic vacation post, but...

 

once again, blogger stayed true to my two pictures per three weeks problem and only let me upload two pics before quitting on me--Spence and his teeth being the other allowed picture.  

So even though we spent a fun (despite the heat wave/no air conditioning/ three sick kids/lost wallet) 10 days in California which included panning for gems at Gold Bug Park, a baby blessing, the Fourth of July, Nat's fourth birthday celebration, the zoo, Mr. Popper's Penguins, the Jelly Belly Factory, camping in Grandpa and Grandma's backyard, Circus Circus Reno, and a Wendover, NV hotel pool,  the only evidence I can provide is Nat and her new cousin.

At least it's a cute end note.
