California Road Trip - Week Three Grandma and Discovery Bay

To kick off our 3rd week of vacation we took off towards my parents house but first made a stop at my Grandma's.  The boys were excited to see their GG and give her their flowers and we were all excited to see her reaction to our crazy boys.  It was a great day and I am so thankful that we were able to make those memories!!!
 The boys favorite part was trying out their GG's "scooter."  :)
 Jake was zooming all over the place!
 Then of course AJ had to take a turn.
 He had a great time for a while...but when he took out a patio table we decided that play time was over :)
GG with her boys :) 
 Once we got to my parents house in Discovery Bay Jake quickly found and fell in love with their hammock!  He wanted to spend every spare moment in it!
AJ enjoyed it too...
...although he much preferred being a goof ball with it :)
Jake got one of his favorite books and kicked back!
Hanging out with Pa
The next morning AJ was up first and so he was out there in his Jammies reading and enjoying the view!
Grandma and Pa had also made a fort out of the underside of their pool table.  Jake was checking it out...
....and of course what big brother does little brother must follow!
Then the boys had to plan out their busy day....so much they wanted to do.
Fishing was at the top of the list as they had never done it before.
Getting all set up
They quickly learned that fishing takes patience
Then they wanted to go on a boat ride!
Jake was super excited to drive
AJ just loved being out there!
Jake the driver
This was taken right after Pa got everyone in the front of the boat wet!  Jake will never let Pa forget it!
Boat lover
Loved every moment of it and having the wind in his hair
Just enjoying the day on the water
Now it was AJ's turn to drive
But he needed a little help so that he would not drive into things :)
After the boat ride the boys HAD to take a swim
The next day our old friend's the Gruenholz's came out to hang out and enjoy the water.  And of course little AJ was getting his flurt on
The kids had a lot of fun hanging out together
AJ jumping off a dock into the delta water
Cannonball!!!!!
Then they got to check out their friend's boat
AJ had fun floating around...and his big brother saved him and brought him back to the dock :)
Jake going off and exploring
Enjoying some hot tub time
Brown/Gruenholz families!  Friends since college...some things have changed :)
That night Jake wanted to try fishing one last time...and he was rewarded with his first fish!!!!
He was super excited as you can see
After all this fun the kids were beat.  So they needed some good rest before we headed down to Corona and Norco to see my aunts.  :)  And of course the special surprise!!!!
