Pictures and more pictures and sad news.....

Olivia didn't have school today so we decided to take some pictures. Ever since I got my new camera and started taking a photoshop class I have been addicted to this stuff! I am just having fun messing around, and my girls actually like it so we have fun together. The sad news for the day is that my baby is crawling. I am soooo sad. I want him to stay little forever!

Feeling Ripped Off

So my friend just told me last week that my favorite t.v. show will no longer be on, I am so upset! This is my fav! She got me addicted to the first season of Project Runway and I haven't been able to stop watching since. She told me the details but I don't really remember all of them. All I know is that I am mad and want the show to come back!

Conversation...

Isabella- mom you only kiss when your married?
me- yes thats right.
Isabella- I wish I was a mom and was married so I could kiss.
me- who would you be married to?
Isabella- dad.

I thought this was so cute, she was talking to me as we were getting ready for the day. I am going to show her this conversation when she is 16! LOL

Disneyland

She is such a poser!

She was soooo excited to get her pin that told everyone its her first visit

This was her favorite ride they let her stay on 3x in a row

He was such a trooper!

Meeting all the princess's

This was Isabellas favorite part, she looooves Sleeping Beauty she was so cute with the girls

They loved having all the Disney Characters sign their autograph book

No other parents would ride this ride, by the time I got off I thought I was going to hurl

This was the only family picture we got I don't love it but whatever

The Grand Entrance the gardens were beautiful all throughout the park


We had such a good time at Disneyland as a family. I am so glad we went! It was long overdue. My kids did wonderful in the car. We stopped at the outlets in Prim and went shopping. We ended up with 3 cases of croup, 2 kids puking, and 1 sinus infection (it still didn't stop us from having fun) . 5 stops at In and Out Burger, yes, you read it right 5 TIMES (I am cussing myself everyday as I work out). Lots of cotton candy and churros, corn dogs and chips. The top three rides were Screaming, Space Mountain, and The Tower of Terror. Olivia went on all the rides and loved them. Isabellas favorite rides were Dumbo, Peter Pan and the Carousel. They had an amazing light show one night, the performance was amazing. The workers and characters were so outgoing and fun and kind and helpful. The new Toy Story ride was awesome, you wore 3d glasses and played games the whole ride through and then got your score at the end. The new flying ride was cool too, as you flew over the ocean you could smell the salt water and as you flew over the orange trees you could smell oranges it was fun that the rides were so interactive. They had the best italian restaraunt, the pizza was to die for we ate the whole large pizza between me Jake and the girls, I would highly recommend you eat there if you ever go. Jake and the girls loved the Tiki hut! I could go on forever. Our family had a wonderful time and are thankful that the Reeders invited us to go with them! OH I totally forgot as I was walking off the Alice in Wonderland ride I walked by a blonde lady who was staring at me and my girls the whole time. When my friend caught up to me she said did you see Sharon Stone? Yeah I was right by her and didn't even know it was her!

Please Pray...

A dear friend of mine from high school needs everyones help. Her sweet little baby is having heart surgery and could really use our prayers. Her name is Veiyah, if you would like to know more about her story feel free to click on the Karg Family on my blog list. It would be greatly appreciated if you would keep this family in your thoughts and prayers. As she will be in mine.

Newport Beach

Out of all the 1200 pictures I took this one is my favorite(I know I always have lots of pictures, but, that is my favorite part when looking at blogs). Anyone who knows me knows that I am in love with anything that has to do with houses and designing and decorating. This picture makes me miss our last house. I love the coastal style. Someday Jake and I would love to have a house on the beach like this. I am a freak about this stuff! LOVE IT!

As much as our kids loved Disneyland they also loved the beach. Newport beach was awesome. It was clean and not crowded. I loved the area and all of the surrounding houses. The feeling there was nice. Ezra had his first taste of the beach and its sand, this seagull got away with a bag of cheetos and inhaled them along with his buddies, Olivia loved searching for shells, and Isabella loved trying to run from the waves.

Coronado Island

When we went to San Diego we decided to go to Coronado Island. The drive over the bridge was amazing! There were aircraft carriers everywhere, these ships are HUGE! Jake was in heaven he loves anything that has to do with flying, ships, and the ocean. The beach was beautiful and the girls found a bunch of sand dollars that they were excited to bring home. Afterwards we went and ate on the pier at a restaraunt called Anthony's. It was the best seafood I have ever had. It was pouring rain and freezing but the food was well worth it. They had the best clam chowder, fish and chips, shrimp coctail, and fried shrimp you could ever eat. If you are ever in this neck of the woods I highly recommend you try this place.
