Friday Marked the first day of the family reunion, we had to get up a five to make it down to Cerritos from Beaumont in time. We had everything packed and ready to go so we could just put the kids in the car and go. We got there in time and had breakfast with the family. It was nice to see everyone. After breakfast and devotions we put on our family shirts and went to the park to take pictures. We played a game and went back to Grandma and Grandpa's house for pizza. After lunch it was off to Jon and Katies for swimming. Most of the David Mathis family left after swimming because we needed to get the kids to bed on time so they could get up early again and have a long day on Saturday.
Saturday we got up a little later since the traffic not supposed to be so bad. Papa and Jess went down ahead of us to start making waffles. Thankfully they did because it took us 2.5 hours instead of the 1.5 that it was supposed to take because the 60 on ramps were closed and when we figured out how to get on it went down to two lanes. We had to make a potty stop too because of all the traffic. When we finally got there we ate a quick breakfast, made our lunches and headed off the the California Sciencenter. It was really neat to see. The place was huge and we didn't get to see it all. First we went and saw the space shuttle and found some other fun things after that. We had lunch in the rose garden and then went back in to see the rest. Six hours was a really long time to be there so we left a little early because the kids were getting tired and so were we. We had hamburgers for dinner and we played some games before signing happy birthday to Grandpa.
Sunday we got there around 9 for devotions and sweet breads. After singing and reading we had brunch and said our good byes before heading down to balboa island to visit my mom's side of the family.
