August 2013: CA Vacation

On the very last week before school started, we headed to northern California for vacation. We visited Dave's grandparents in Sacramento and then went up to Lake Tahoe with Dave's parents.

Andrew was so excited to carry his backpack.

We are unabashed about technology use while traveling.

This kid gets extra screen time so he won't destroy his great-grandparents' house.

The girl in the yellow shirt is Maddie's future BYU roommate!

We went kayaking. So gorgeous!

The kids' favorite was rafting on the Truckee River. Even Andrew could come!

I love these trees! 

Why do they always pick the blue ice cream???

We hit up the Jelly Belly Factory on our way back to the airport!
