Chester and Lake Almanor

Next we traveled to Chester and Lake Almanor and visited with our parents, and we were able to meet up with our former youth pastors for an ice cream treat at our favorite old fashioned soda fountain.

A Day At the Lake

We spent a nice day on the beach next to Lake Almanor with Gpa Bob, Glo Glo, Ya Ya, and Papa.

Last Day in Chester and Lake Almanor

On our last day visiting the grandparents, Landon got to explore Ya Ya's garden.

Then, we went out to the lake for a delicious birthday breakfast and a photo shoot with the lake back-drop.

Here are the boys with Glo Glo.

Party Chico- part 2

We returned to Chico to hang out with friends at the Brandi home. We were able to visit with a bunch of our All Aboard Academic Daycare crew.

Here is Landon with the girls!

Swimming fun- Nicolas and Abby Anderson, Landon, and Damian.

Luis, Chloe, and Uncle John treated us to a concert- Beatles style, as Chloe's 5th birthday party that we missed this year was The Beatles theme.

It was a great way to spend my 28th birthday. Here I am preparing to blow out all 28 candles (I didn't accomplish that feat!).

Stockton

We traveled to Stockton to visit the Robinson side of the family, and this is a picture of Great-Grandpa Gordon holding Lincoln (we think there is some resemblance!)
All of the family came over to have dessert and then we had a sing along where Landon played his harmonica with Grandpa Bob on the guitar and Great-Grandpa Gordon on his harmonica.
Here is Great-Grandma Cleo with Lincoln.

Here we all are before heading off to the airport.

It was such a wonderful vacation!

Tricycle

It's official- Landon can ride a bike. Now that his feet can reach the pedals, there is no stopping him. He loves to do laps around our kitchen, and we think that all of the driving experience he has from his tractor and race car have helped him with his steering and maneuvering abilities. It's so fun to watch him go!

The Joy of Lincoln

Lincoln is such a happy guy. He is laughing now and "talking" to us, and he brings us such joy. He is an easy baby and sleeps and eats well, and we are thankful for our mellow second child.
