Part II: Let's go swimming!

Alright alright alright - so it's been a little more than the 1 day turnaround that I promised. What can I say? I'm a popular guy, and my schedule is pretty full. That said, with much ado, here is Part II of the coveted blog from my trip to California. Generally sequels don't quite live up to their counterpart, so I'm hoping this is more like the Godfather II of blogs.


This isn't posed or anything


Based on how he reacted like a little girl, I think this was the best part of Daddy's trip

So as I mentioned before, while the majority of Southern California was making its way INTO Disneyland around Noon on the 4th of July, we were headed out. Our time was up, and we were ready to go see Gabby and friends in Fresno. I got myself nice and comfortable in the backseat of our rented Pontiac Grand Prix thinking we would make the 4 hour drive without a stop, but that thought didn't last long. We spotted an "In-N-Out Burger" sign after a few miles on the freeway, and after daddy giggled with delight, we pulled off for lunch. After about 10 minutes, we were back on the road.

Me and Uncle Matt - he's mommy's cousin - I like him
Some of the a-dults played a game that I was assured was called Apple Juice Pong

After a nice few hour drive (with only one stop to be fed in a Home Depot parking lot), we showed up at Gabby's house. I personally wanted to swim, but instead we got back in the car and headed over to Uncle Matt and Auntie Laney's house (they're Dodge people) for my first 4th of July. Their was lots of people there and we had lots of fun. I tried to take in all of the action, but after the last few days, I was ready for bed pre-tty, pre-tty, preeee-tty early.

What the heck is going on in the street?!

Gabby, I'm getting VERY tired

Take me home!

I'm trying to watch, but I'm so sleepy!

The last two days of the trip went by so fast! I spent all day Saturday and all day Sunday (until our airplane ride) swimming, playing with my cousins, and enjoying Gabby's hospitality. I really was not very excited to be spending my vacation days in 100+ degree heat, but I greatly underestimated how much air conditioning and a pool can make life WONDERFUL! Gabby bought pool toys for me and my cousins, so I spent a good amount of time driving my blow-up car floatie thingy around the pool (aka, the OOL, because as a wiseman once said, there's no P in the Pool). Now, I must admit that I did have an accident in my swimmer diapers on Saturday, but it was small, and after a quick break and some fresh chemicals, we were ready to swim some more!
Thats not drool on my chin - it naturally glimmers like that!

I'm not sure what purpose the painted on wheels serve

Woooooooooooooooo

Me and Daddy Bear

Me and Mommy Bear
Overall, the weekend was a PERFECT ending to a PERFECT vacation. I got to meet Mickey Mouse, go on lots of fun rides at Disneyland and California Adventure, spend lots of time working on my backstroke, and most importantly, spending some quality time with all of my FABU family in California.

You might not beleive it, but that splash is Daddy going through the tube

What is this - the High Dive?!

I ain't gettin no sunburn

After kicking the seat in front of me a bit on the airplane, we got back to delightful Washington weather on Sunday night, and Grammy was waiting for us at the airport. I was super excited to get home, and after a brief stop for mommy and daddy to get some aloe for their silly sunburns (I'm not sure they think they are silly - daddy claims at least 3rd degree burns), we made it home.
If you've never been to Disneyland, you NEED to go soon. And if you have never been to Fresno, well, I would only suggest it if you have family there as awesome as mine!
While you may think I put every picture possible on this blog, I did not. There are plenty more from this trip, and if you would like to see them, send daddy an email at Koreywhite@gmail.com, and he can send you the link to the album on Costco.com. You could always email me (CohenChandler@gmail.com), but my blackberry isn't working and I don't check it regularly.
Pizza's here - gotta go!

No surprise to me.. [url=http://www.vanessasac.com]vanessa bruno sac [/url] Resisting sugar will get easier as the weeks go by. Before you buy, you need to look at reviews on Youtube, which helps x10 more. but to fill that big black hole in their hear hearts.
Many of my friends seem to gravitate to the cruiser, maybe trying to recapture that Easy Rider / Biker image from their youth. [url=http://www.icanadagooseca.com]canada goose toronto[/url] You will get a wide range of Keys from some reputed dealers. http://officialcanadagoosesoutlet.ca

To buy replicas of high Louboutin shoes from China, then you do not have much money on luxury items, and you can do something else with the money saved.
