San Diego

We went to San Diego in October, we got Omar for 10 days all to ourselves-- and it was heavenly!!

We went to Cynthia and Kelly's wedding and pretended to be tourists!

Here is to the million pictures we took!

THE ROAD

Road trip-- enjoying some Jack and the footprints on the floor.

THE BEACH

we spent a fun afternoon at the beach: eating, football, frisbee, trying to get the kids to try surfing

the boys being boys

Malachi, Kailey, Noah, Pablo

ASHLIN

This summer Ashlin jumped in the pool in her clothes when Sienna tried to drown herself, ever since then Sienna talks about Ashlin nonstop, and how she saved her life! WE LOVE ASHLIN!

DISNEYLAND

We decided to take the kids to Disneyland for the first time. The day we planned to go turned out to be rainy- we thought no big deal, I imagined sprinkling. We got poured on- it was not what I imagined but we had so much fun!!

his popcorn box got so wet it just fell apart

man my family is cute in ponchos

loving her daddy

we were waiting in the line to meet princesses and I asked Sienna how excited she was...

then asked Malachi... oh Macky poo!

Princess #1 Aurora- Sienna was a little shy at first

Princess #2 Belle- she was so cute she sat and warmed Sienna's hands

After a lot of rain and a few princesses Sienna passed out.

Then we went back for more princesses

Princess #3 Cinderella

Princess #4- Tiana

So excited to be at Minnie's house

there was no line so Sienna got to sit and snuggle Minnie-- oh she fell in love!

looking in Minnie's mirror

The boys rode the Buzz ride like a bazillion times and Malachi was in heaven-- he had to have a replica of the gun from the ride.

hello little lady in the rain

the wet momma and daddy

waiting in a short line

oh Sienna and her mean face

so we just make dad tickle her

riding the elephants

Pixie Hollow

because of the rain Tink wasn't out- so Sienna was knocking on her door

5 YEARS

During our trip we celebrated our 5 year anniversary. We had the most fabulous day-- just the two of us! We shopped, we went to a movie, we sat at the beach and went to a romantic dinner. It was so nice to celebrate! Here are to forever more!!

TOURISTS

One day we played tourists- we went to Kono's for breakfast then rented bikes and rode on the boardwalk

beach front breakfast

ketchup and pancakes

we got the bikes

Malachi held on like that for most of the ride

Sienna was saying hello to everyone- people loved it!

LIKE DADDY

playing at Grandma's, Malachi decided this board was a surf board and rode it like crazy

BONFIRE

one of our last nights we met O at the beach after a surf session with Todd and had a fire- hotdogs and s'mores at the beach

warming up

roasting

We had such a nice trip and spent all our time with our little family-- I had a serious adjustment coming back to my reality of life minus my hubby, but was happy for the time we got!!!
