We ordered the Mount St. Helen's Ice Cream. It had vanilla ice cream on the bottom with a layer of cherry syrup and butter scotch syrup, topped with a heap of rainbow sherbet covered in whip cream and almonds. They said that if we finished it, we would get a ribbon. The kids wanted that ribbon! Oh, and on the right is a pineapple ice cream soda that we used as a chaser.
Campfire songs in the backyard. Taylor is convinced that it's Alouett-O. It's cracking Gracie up. The whole time, Gracie, Karen and I taking bets on weather Taylor will fall in the hole on his left.
Had a fun night at the Clippers game. The Clips won in overtime...
The kids were out in the yard watering the plants and picking berries...
Cozy and Daddy went to watch the Angels take on the Orioles. Even though the Orioles won, we had a great time. We even saw Howie Kendrick hit a home run...
...with some "Toasted Nuts" colored paint. We couldn't handle the rustic aka dingy wood look, so we painted the deck and the furniture...
Cozy nodded off during dinner. Clearly the veggie's weren't exciting enough for him.
Karen and I had an opportunity to go to the California Sports Hall Of Fame 2012 Induction Ceremony. There were some great names in California sports present. Rick Barry(Warriors), Tommy Smith(Olympics), John Carlos(Olympics), Ted Hendricks(Raiders), Tommy Davis(Dodgers)...
He didn't know what happened. He smacked his face on the floor and when he got up and looked at his nose, he said it looked like strawberry jelly. Wiped it off, and kept playing. Tough kid. 
We had some fun out with the Laker game and with these nachos bigger than your head! 
Gracie and Cozy love riding the scooter up and down the street. Gracie has become pretty good at riding...out of necessity. It's because Taylor kept chasing her for his turn....
Bill and Nancy B had us over for dinner one evening during our vacation. She's been playing the Dodgers Stadium Organ for nearly 25 seasons!
