Disneyland- September

Last week we spent a few days at Disneyland and CA Adventure.  We had a great time and especially loved getting to meet up with our friends-the Healeys while we were there. Some how we didn't get any pictures with them :(  But LOTS of Bella...here we go!

 

The fireworks show is one of our favorites!  We finally got good seats for it and it was AWESOME!

We went to the Princess Fantasy Fair and met Snow White, Aurora, and Cinderella!

    

Then we went to Mickey's house to see him

And then another favorite- The Pixar Parade at CA Adventure

  

Winnie the Pooh and Dumbo one last time

 

Last but not least, the hand sanitizer dispenser

Seriously, she spent like 10 minutes playing with it. lol

Happy Birthday to Thomas

Presents!!!!

 

That sure is a lot of stuff. Bella had tons of fun playing with it all and seeing what was inside of each thing.

 

What kind of a birthday cake is that? Why it is a Micky D's apple pie cake.

 

We invited the family to come with us for some legendary laser tag. It was very awesome and fun.

 

You can see the final scores after each game. Notice that Your_Mom was 4th place...that was Thomas. Every time he shot someone they would get a message on their gun that said, "you were tagged by Your_Mom." Pretty clever birthday boy. Maybe we'll do it again soon!

Just Around the House

She had some pigtails and was being very cute getting into everything like her old car seat.

We let her eat some oatmeal all by herself.

The oatmeal was really good and the spoon was not fast enough so she started to use her hand to shovel it.

We were laughing so hard at her. She laughed a little bit, but was so hungry she ignored us and kept eating.

Hot summer days equal nothing but a diaper. This is her book basket that doubles as a seat.

Getting into the sandwich bags is one of her favorite things. She pulls them out as fast as she can and then goes even faster once she gets caught. She'll try to take off running, but after realizing that we aren't chasing after her she'll come back and help put them all back into the box (probably so she can pull them out again later).

Camping at Pismo

We had a nice trip camping with all the Durans at Pismo during the July when it was really hot back at home. It was great to have everyone there all together. Here we are at our Sunday activity looking at the tide pools.

I think somebody needed a bath.

Amy took some artsy shots on the trail to the tide pools. Looks pretty good huh?

One day we went to the Avila Barn where they have farm animals.

She was so brave to feed all the goats. She actually thought they were hilarious with their tongues sticking through the fence.

Bundled up on the pier with grandma. We did lots of fishing. Caught lots of fish. Then left the fish outside in our campsite overnight where the coons came and ate the heads.

Loved running around the pier chasing people and birds.

Fed some ducks on our last day there at the lagoon in the campground. She didn't really figure it out and the ducks didn't like our bread.
