Girls Birthday Trip - Day 7 - Kloe Turns 12!
All my kids have been so excited to turn 12! 12 is the next best thing to being a teenager! No more primary. Soon no more elementary school. And they are finally old enough to go to the temple.

Kloe got to spend her birthday morning in the beautiful Newport Beach temple with her Dad, Papa Tom, and cousin Izzy doing baptisms for the dead.

While they were finishing up at the temple I took the 3 girls to the park.

Would you believe the child hugging Gracie made Janie cry just a few seconds earlier? In Lilly's defense it was an accident but sadly that isn't usually the case.

Mama Jan's bad hip has been acting up so today Uncle Bobby hooked her up with this baby!

Today we split up. Our family took Izzy and spent the day in California Adventure and my parents and the rest of Rob's family went to Disneyland.


This entire trip has been a dream for Lilly. All her favorite Disney characters in "real life" is almost too much for her to wrap her little mind around. She especially LOVED the Disney Jr Show!


More cotton candy for Janie :)


Love this birthday girl so much! It has been fun watching her grow into a young lady. She is talented, smart, thoughtful and a good big sister.



Janie had all kinds of friends with her bubble blower.



This would be Becky Beck's favorite ride of all time!!! I took Gracie on the Tower of Terror for the first time today and she LOVED it!


These 2 DID NOT like the Bugs Life show. Not even a little bit. Lilly screamed through the entire thing. But they did like the 3-D glasses.


Lilly was the only child that wanted anything to do with the Mad Hatter's Dance Party. Mom and Dad loved it!


Kloe's choice of birthday treat was a caramel apple. She was a little sad for the day to come to an end. It's been the best birthday week ever!!!
