Fun With Friends

This was my friend and neighbor Adrina and myself back in August of 09. She was also pregnant with boy/girl twins and she delivered exactly 14 days before me.

Now they get to play together!

We had lots of snacks
We colored and ran all around the backyard

Then we had lunch. Can't wait to hang out again!

Farmer's Market

We took a walk to the local farmers market this morning and had fun picking out some fruits and vegetables.

Slightly over exposed photo's :( Shooting on manuel takes a lot of practice.
But we loved sampling everything!

Just One Picture Please

I was so eager to get a great picture of Logan in his new sunglasses and it went a little like this:

NO Mommy I will put them on

Are they good?
Great, I'm off!
After a chasing him around the park, I was able to get the photo I wanted!
Meanwhile, ellie was having a great time at the Sweetshade Park that opened by our house.

Jungleland

We had so much fun at Jungleland today with Tiffany and her two boys. It's a big indoor play room with all kinds of toys.

Cole, about 15 months, so very close in age to mine.
Dylan, he turned 2 in November, so cute!
Ellie loved the pink car
Logan went straight to the motorcycle, he really wants to ride with Aunt Nan and Uncle Terry!
The kids had lunch and then we went to Tiffany's house for more playtime.

Balboa Bay

After a couple very days of the kids being sick it was time to get out of the house for a few hours and enjoy the sun.

The kids were not to sure about the water and sand was a little hard to walk in but they came around.
Daddy's little me
Bye bye beach, we will see you allot this summer

Camera Ready

We went to the park with grandma to ride the train and participate in the activities they had going on for kids over the weekend. Unfortunately, it was so cold that we had to leave. We hung out for a little bit and I practiced my photography but I swear it was close to snowing here :) It had to of been in the 50's and that is freezing for us!
