Pismo_Candy Corn Monsters

I bought a trail mix bag called "Monster Mix" that had candy corn in it and in no time at all the kids were turning themselves into candy corn vampires. Even Grandma Stone got in on the fun!

Ash got even trickier and turned herself into a candy corn werewolf.

Pismo_Icecream Lab

We discovered an ice cream shoppe called "Doc Burnstein's Ice Cream Lab"

It was wicked expensive +$3 a scoop! but the kids enjoyed the show and got to help name a new ice cream "Tasty Squirrels". It was root beer flavor with cookie dough, chocolate covered pretzels, and mini M&M's.

CJ chose bubblegum ice cream, and then saved all the gum so we could go to bubblegum alley.

Pismo_Silly Hair Day

We were getting ready to head into town to go to Splash for dinner and the kids all decided today was "Silly Hair Day". So they all did their hair the same (even Kade!) They are all so silly!

Here they are at the pier after dinner... still being silly

Pismo_Splash

You cant go to Pismo without eating at Splash! The kids love looking at all the paintings of the clams on the walls and measuring up against this ruler.

Ash got the calamari and fries... and LOVED it!

CJ's not as daring with his taste buds and got chicken strips and discovered that curly fries are more fun to play with than they are to eat... he probably only ate 3 but he played with them all!

Pismo_Sunset at the Pier

After dinner at Splash we walked over to see the beautiful sunset off the pier.

Pismo_Grandma's kids

Grandma Stone wanted a picture of her and all her Grandkids on the trampoline that the Henry Family brought. L to R: Kade Henry, McKenzie Stone, Nadine "Stone" (foreign exchange student), Lexi Henry, Grandma Vicki Stone, Bailey Stone, Addy Stone, Ashley Tunquist, Calin Tunquist, Aidan Stone.

* grandma bribed them all with candy necklaces to sit still for the pic. she's wicked smart!*

Pismo_Bubblegum Alley

In the city of San Louis Obispo there is a place called Bubblegum Alley where there are millions of pieces of gum on the wall in the tiny alley. Ash & CJ were told about it on the first day of Pismo and every day they asked if they could go and so we did. Both kids found it shocking that mom said it was okay to put gum on the wall. That night when Ash called her dad she decided she wanted to play a trick on him and said "Mom let me put my gum on a wall!" it was followed by a long silence while her dad was trying to figure out the right response. Ash thought it was hilarious! eww... gross... don't touch the wall!

Ash getting her piece of gum ready

CJ saved all his gum from his bubblegum ice cream so he could use it here.

They took a lot of time to find the perfect spot for their gum...

People spelled names and made pictures with their gum. Ash liked this peace sign
