Day One

We went to Disneyland for 3 days a couple of weeks ago. This is the longest time we've ever spent there. We had a blast!! We spent 3 FULL days at the park. Everyone was super behaved, happy and in the mood to get along! Jackson loves small world!
Jared is going through a bunny ear stage I think.

Jacey is way braver than I was at her age and went on Space Mountain, Thunder Mountain, Matterhorn, Indiana Jones and Tower of Terror.

Snack time!

Tarzan's Treehouse

This little boy was SOOOO excited to see Minnie. If you look closely he is carrying a little Minnie dressed exactly like the Big Minnie!

Day one- A success!

Happy #8!! Jaden

Jaden turned 8 on May 23. He is super excited to be baptized in July! We decided to use our passes and make a trip to Disneyland. We arrived in Anaheim in the evening and went to celebrate Jaden's actual birthday at a yummy Mexican restaurant. We were all excitedly anticipating our next 3 days to be spent at Disney/

Happy Birthday Jaden! We Love You!

The River

This is the kind of fun that happens when you live near Nilssons. We got a last minute call on Memorial Day that more Nilssons were in town and that if we moved quickly, a trip down the Kern river would be had. John quickly grabbed Jared and Jaden and Jacey and off they went.
On the bus to the starting spot.

He's excited!!!

It's a Milestone!

My mom celebrated her 60th Birthday this month! We were able to surprise her (kind of) and get all of the kids together.
We had dinner at The Belvedere in the Padre Hotel.

We went back to my parents house where we celebrated some more and watched a video montage of her life.

These cute girls are trouble!! I should have taken a better picture of it. but when we were out to dinner, they covered this playhouse in crayons--inside and out without the babysitters noticing. That was fun when John and I bought paint and primed and re-painted it. Grrrr.

Jared, ,Tyler and Jaden

Jacey and Joanna

My mom, sister, brother and me--the other brother had to leave early.

Happy Birthday MOM!!
