We're so glad when Grandparents come...

 My parents (Grandpa and Grandma Cows) came to visit a few weeks ago. The weather warmed up here just in time for them to visit, it was a week spent in the warm sunshine!

We visited the Museum of Natural History in Los Angeles, which I thought was awesome, the girls enjoyed it, and Gordon just wanted to run away and touch everything. So, having a one year old at a nice museum is something I will think twice about the next time I want to go. The museum is located in place called Exposition Park, which also contains the free Aerospace museum, and free kid's science center. Both of which we ran out of time to see. Next time..
After the museum, we headed to Palos Verdes to visit a park called Del Cerro, which was Ben's thinking spot as a teenager. It's beautiful up there. 
"What? No playground? I'm so bored."
 Observe the boy in his natural state: climbing. On the other side of this fence is pretty steep drop-off. Of course Gordon would be trying to go through the fence repeatedly. 

 My parents awesome camera took all of these pictures, including the new set of hummingbirds nesting below our apartment. That's a dime in the picture.
 It was warm enough to go to the beach two days while Grandma and Grandpa were here. 
 We paid another visit to the Great Park, where we couldn't ride the hot air balloon because of the Santa Ana winds. But the free carousel was there, and empty, so we rode for about 25 minutes. 

We loved having Grandpa and Grandpa Cows here! Come back soon!
