Going "Home"



We are going "home" to the Pacific NW this week
for Easter and birthdays. I am so excited to see friends and family. I won't be able to see everyone but atleast I will get a little homesickness taken care of. We plan to have a wonderful Easter and some birthday fun with those that we don't see often but who are so special to us. I hope all of you enjoy your Easter day and the reason for this celebration..

Wii Fit FOR SALE


We are selling our Wii fit. Derek was so nice to buy it for me but I just don't use it. I'm a gym-treadmill-elliptical kind of gal.

It comes in the original box with the standard Wii fit game and user manual. We are asking $60, we bought it for $80 brand new and it's been used probably 3 times. This is for the locals here in Carson (unless you are in the NW this weekend when I'm there). Call me if you are interested.

One Final Disneyland Post...I promise

Our first day at Disneyland . Seeing the castle for the first time gave me goosebumps and watching my girls get so excited made me emotional!!



















Our last night at the fireworks show. It was so awesome and a perfect way to end our magical time. During the show Tinkerbell "flys" across the top of the castle and she is all lit up in the dark.. So cool!














The girls can't wait to go back again someday. They always say how much they miss Disneyland. Lately everything at the park is a Disneyland ride and when we go up or down a hill it's a roller coaster!!

More Disneyland

Our Breakfast with the Princesses. So worth it!! The girls LOVED meeting the princesses and getting their autographs. Abby and Gracie even got a private moment with their "matching" princesses.

This blogging thing.....

Blogging just hasn't been a priority for me lately. I love to look at other blogs, just not post on my own. I really want my blog to be more meaningful and memorable so I'm thinking of different ways it make it that way. More to come, hopefully!!

WE just got back from Disneyland and I have A LOT of pictures ,but the computer is so slow and I just don't have patience to wait for them right now.
We had a lot of fun and we will remember it forever. We met my sister A and her family there and so we had 6 little girls and 4 adults in 2 hotel rooms side by side!! We made lots of memories and had a few meltdowns (adults included). Disneyland is a magical and exhilirating place and I would love to go back again when the kids are a little bit older. Pictures to come soon!

We are going to.....


This isn't the best picture. Bryanna is waving her hands excitidedly!!
DISNEYLAND!!!! How excited am I and the girls??? Very excited. I have never been to Disneyland and this is our first trip as a family so we are very happy to say we get to go to Disneyland. I planned a small scavenger hunt for the girls to find all the words to the phrase" We are going to DISNEYLAND!!" And then we gave them a Disney princess calendar and stickers to count down for the next few weeks. Even though it has been planned for a while we waited to tell them because they get so anxious and ask "how many sleeps until we go??" We are going with my sister and her family and it will be a blast for the girls. I can't wait to see their faces when we get there and they see all the magical things!! It will be a very memorable trip and I'm glad the girls get to share this with some of their cousins.
