The 4th of July weekend was Bonnie's family reunion. This year the reunion was held at Carlsbad State Beach. Bonnie's friend Pat let us use her trailer for the weekend. It was so much better than "tenting it". Bonnie will never sleep in a tent again! Stacy and Lance came down from Utah and Scott, Cheryl and Allie came down from Orange County. It was great to have the whole family together. We spent a lot of time playing on the beach, but we got to do some other things as well. Thursday we spent the day at the San Diego County Fair. It was a lot of fun. The Fair is mainly about the food, but rides, games and browsing all the vendors goods is fun too. The Fair is also about a LOT of walking. Saturday we drove up to the Newport Beach Temple where Spencer and Debbie were FINALLY able to be sealed to Sammy FTAAE. All of Spencer's kids were there except for Robin. I finally got to see Arnel and Lisa's son Logan. He was cute and huggable.
At least Grandma looks like shes having fun.

Someone turned Bonnie's wallet into the lost and found with all her credit cards
and over $700 in cash. (Yes, there are still honest people in the world).
Allie couldn't believe how big the turkeys were.
Allie was not happy about that messy yogurt!
Thus ends a long day at the Fair.
