Best Seat in the House

This is how almost 4 year old little girls watch TV in our house these days.

Car Show 2013

Francis entered his car in the annual state street car show last weekend and the kids loved sitting on State St. and people watching.

So many cars!

There were over a dozen blocks dedicated to this car show - so fun!

 Zoe, Maddox and Francis answering everyone's questions.

 Although the GTO didn't win any awards, it did get a lot of recognition for it's original parts. ;)

Birthday Party Season

Zoe's friend, Conor, had his birthday party a couple of weekends ago and they hired the BEST face painter! Zoe of course didn't want to paint her face with a butterfly or flowers...no...she opted on the Super Girl look.  Ben was Captain America. Love these two!

Here they are waiting patiently in line...

Yay! Finally!

I love her excited, happy face

These two crack me up

And she a clown nose to finish the look.

 Maddox on the other hand was quite a handful...they had a big blow up ball that kids could go into and roll around in. He seemed to really enjoy it. Can't you tell?

19 Months!

I'm 5 days late in posting Maddox's 19 month chair picture...but it was worth the wait. Look at this adorable face  :)

Beach girls!

Zoe and her preschool BFF, Claire, were lucky enough to spend the day at the beach last Friday! They went with Tami, our amazing daycare lady for the day and, from the looks of it, had a ton of fun. I love my beach girl!!

Mother's Day 2013

Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful moms out there - especially mine  :)

 

Disneyland 2013

We did our second Disneyland trip a couple of weeks back and, once again, had so much fun!!  We went down a day early to enjoy the hotel pool. It was a perfect southern California weekend.

This little trouble maker hated the cold pool but loved climbing over everything

We need to get someone some swim classes!

Main Street...Zoe's pulling daddy ... she couldn't wait to get on the roller coasters.

Waiting patiently in line...

Teacups are SO fun...

Until you start feeling sick. 

She got Minnie Mouse ears and didn't take them off all day

It's a Small World - the best ride to calm your kids down

Meeting Mickey for the first time...and being a scaredy cat about it

Maddox was NOT having it

Mickey didn't get much love

Minnie was a hit though

 

She drove the cars like a maniac

I think I got whip lash.

A rare family pic

Lunch break at Downtown Disney - this balloon guy was awesome

The finished product - a princess crown

Love her!

We waited in line forever for this ride. It was a must for Miss Z though ;)

Checking out the ducks

Maddox being a tour guide

Zoe's favorite ride...Splash Mountain.  We have a daredevil on our hands.

Sleeping kids = a successful trip!

We have no princess pictures because Zoe had no interest in the princesses this time around. She literally only wanted to go on the rides. I wonder what next time will be like...
