Visit to California City

Before we went up to Logandale for the county Fair, we made our way to California City, which is in Death Valley. It's a long drive! I've decided that I hate that drive and even more I HATE Cal City! It is in the middle of No Where with NOTHING around it for hours! It's nothing but desert but when we got there we were surprised at the cold and the chilly wind. We had to change clothes immediately. The boys were pretty rambunctious from the drive and it was all we could do to keep them contained at grandpa's. Luckily at our hole in the wall hotel, they could jump around and be crazy all they wanted. I really regret not taking pictures of the place, funnily enough I know we'll be back. It was actually pretty fun to have our own hotel room. We used the coffee maker to heat water for cup of noodles and instant oatmeal. Grandpa James can only handle so much of us, so after one night in the Hotel, we were outta there! I was ready! We then headed to Logandale for fun at the Fair. Here are the pictures from Cal City!

Grandpa James is hilarious. The first thing he always says when we walk in the door is that he swears Shar has gotten taller since the last time he saw him. "You just keep growing taller and taller..." Sharrid really stopped growing years ago...

Shar made us some breakfast burritos. I love Shar's breakfast burritos. It's one of our Menu items........on the Menu of our restaurant we want to open someday:)

On the second day we got smart and had the boys try and watch a DVD.

Grandpa refers to Phoenix as greedy, because he's so thick...

We went over to Thomas' (grandpa's best friend). He loved the boys and Marce talked up a storm for him!

Until next time at Cal City...

Marcelus' funnies

Asking Grandpa: "Why do you have that silly stick in your mouth?"

It was a toothpick and grandpa told him it was because of his old smoking habit, he had to have something in his mouth but didn't want a cigarette.

On our way back to the Hotel for the night: "I don't want to go back to the Happiness Hotel!"

The next morning when a tray of complimentary breakfast (breakfast my elbow!) was picked up for our room: "Look, we have tea time!" It was pastries and Tampico...
