Last weekend we went to California for my nephew Sean's wedding. We had lots of fun adventures.
Getting ready to go. We had to drive 3 hours to get to Atascadero where the wedding was.

The wedding was beautiful. It was outside overlooking the lake. Mostly it was fun to see family and even meet some new family members.
The Bride and Groom, Sean and Paula Graff. Congrats, guys!
Grace and her cousin Aubrey, who she met for the first time this weekend. They were friends immediately. Aubrey was so nice to Grace all weekend.
My sister Marti and her girls.

Me and my baby.
Auntie Emily feeding Grace some punch. Yeah, I had a lot of laundry to do when we got home. Grace loved it though!
All of our free time this weekend was spent geocaching. Brian got us hooked on our new favorite hobby - treasure hunting with a GPS. Rob was really excited that there's a grown-up legit way to go treasure hunting. We went down to Morro Bay and saw the sights while geocaching. It was such a fun way to sight see and to see un-touristy parts of the area. Since we had to employ our stealth skills we took lots of pictures to distract any Muggles that were around from our true mission.

We had a lovely evening Sunday night before the big run hanging out with family.
The girls. Grace, Kylee and Aubrey had fun hanging out under the table.
Monday was our big family "Fun Run" 5k that Rob and I have been "training" for.
Here's Andrew modeling the shirts "Graff Forced Family Fun Run (the devil is asking what's going on up there? as it's snowing in Hades)...in case you didn't realize Hades froze over on Monday. Graffs (and Bunkers) don't run.
The whole crew ready to run.Ian posing. He thought he had the win in the bag.
And they're off. (That's Ian leading the pack.)
Until...
Rob passed him up and WON the whole race! I am so proud of him! He was awesome.
After we finished, we came back to walk the last people in.
The winner! Whoo hoo!
Rob won a water bottle choc full of cool stuff and a $50 gift card. Any guesses on what that $50 is going to be spent on? (Hint: Rob's new favorite hobby...) A GPS! Fun adventures await us all summer!

I'm just glad that I didn't die. And could actually finish the race.
We had such a fun weekend! Thanks Sean and Paula for giving everyone a great excuse to get together. Thanks Erin for challenging us all and organizing the run. Thanks Stew for sponsoring the prizes (you're welcome to come geocaching with us sometime!).

I love that you called the non-geo-cachers "muggles". hehe
Looks like a fun weekend! Grace is just about the most adorable baby I've ever seen. :)
Ha ha! I love the shirts - the FORCED family run - that is hilarious and good for you for running it. Running is hard work, huh?
It looks like you had a fun weekend. Congratulations on winning the race, Robby! Gracie is darling. I love that she has a big smile in all the pictures. You three make a gorgeous family.
Let us know the next time you come all the way to California. We'd love to see you even if it is just for a little while, like lunch or something. We could even drive to see you or meet you halfway if you are super busy.
I hope you are all doing well!
Way to go on the run! Is this your second race then? I am impressed! What a great family thing!
Family Run?!? What a great idea! The course looks like it had quite a few hills, good job Rob!
