Disneyland

It's true...Addie had her first Disneyland experience! We loaded up the car Wednesday to meet up with the Modesto family for a few days at Disneyland. What an adventure! All the kids did amazing considering they walked all over the park and stayed up a few hours past bedtime each night. Mimi and Papa spoiled us all and we loved being with everyone.

Addie was a huge fan of the Finding Nemo ride and the Playhouse Disney show. It was too sweet to see her excited and hear her scream for joy as she saw her "friends." Minnie Mouse was another winner in Addie's book. She got up to her and softly said, "Hi Minnie."...and then blew her a kiss. Chris and I got to ride a few rides by ourselves and it reminded us of the child-like fun we still have together. On top of that, we were amazed at all the technology and brains behind the Disney world of fun...too bad we didn't come up with any of it. :)













Do they look alike or what?! Here's the "Where did Goofy go?" face.

Pumpkin Adventure With Friends

Six moms...tons of kids...pumpkins. Yes, we might be crazy but it was fun. We headed down to the Avila Valley Barn again with our dear friends and had a great time. Feeding the animals was the hit with most of the kids and rather comical. Addie sported her first set of "pigtails" and looked to funny. She's getting so big.

Avila Valley Barn

We had a Saturday together as a family!!!! Wedding wonderland is officially over so we got to enjoy some fun times. Saturday we woke up and decided to take Addie to the Avila Valley Barn. It was amazing! From feeding the animals to the mass amount of pumpkins to the corn maze to the great food, we had a blast...plus I finally got a few funny pics with my little girl.

Ice Cream and a Plastic Box

Whenever we have to clean up Jamba Juice Friday's as a family, we always like to stop at Baskin Robin's for ice cream...Addie is a huge fan. As for the plastic box, we have been over at the Hamon's quite a bit helping with the move and Addie and Jack found a new toy in the plastic box world. Jack especially loved to hide under it.

Some of these make us laugh! Addie has a few new tricks that are worth noting. Picture one is her new form of wanting to take a nap during lunch...she takes blankie, wraps her head in it and literally will fall asleep on the table if we don't take her upstairs soon enough.

Addie got a new table in her bedroom that she loves to color, read and work puzzles on. Here is story time with bear.

Wow...this has to be one of the best. Addie loves the iPod! She finds joy in music...especially Hannah Montana "Hoedown Throw Down"...embarrassing, I know. Chris put some kid friendly music on my old iPod and she will literally listen to it in the car and not move an inch to prevent the headphones from falling out!!!

Pumpkins

Meme and Papa bought Addie a pumpkin this year when Addie and Chris went to Modesto for a weekend trip (I had 2 weddings so I wasn't going to be much fun). We decided to "carve" it the other day with permanent markers since it would be rotten in a week. Addie had a great time drawing on it...and herself. Please also note her amazing hair after she woke up from a nap. :)
