Family pics at the beach

Every year on our beach trip we try and get family pics while we are all together. I love this first pic of my family on the beach, it has such a 70's feel to it (the lighting). Of course with 2 little kids its almost impossible to get them to be looking at the camera at the same time, (and the ones that they are smiling my brothers have to make a goofy face or srangling eachother...) Poor Payson was so tired from being in the sun all day and Addi was sticking her hand in her mouth in about 90 percent of the pictures! What do ya do!!! Needless to say we had some good laughs trying to find a picture with everyone looking normal... but at the end of the day, at least we were all together having fun!!





The whole family!

Del Mar Beach

I have been slacking on my blogging duties! Most of you know that I went back to work in Sept for the first time in 3 years! I am working at BioLife as a Sr. Plasma Tech (pretty much I hook people up to machines that filter the plasma out of their blood). Between working and being a mom and wife, I have been busy! Right now we are on vacation with my family in Cali so I finally have an extra min to post! So here is one of many posts to come!! .... The first pic is the beautiful view off our deck. We have been coming to this same beach condo every October for the past few years! We love to be right on the beach and hear the ocean while we sleep! We usually stay for 10 days but with work and school Tay, Payson, and I came Wed while Addi left the weekend before with my family.
Addi havin fun in the sand!
Payson's first time on the beach!! I LOVE his face!! He kept his eyes closed any time he was out in the sun! If I wanted a pic I had to do it under the beach umbrella so there was shade!
He hated the ocean and kept rubbing sand in his eyes so he mostly stayed on the blanket and ate! (he is a happy little guy when there is food around!)


Addi the little mermaid!

DISNEYLAND!

Addi's first time at Disney Land!! Wait... where are we?? Ya thats right... my family took Addi to DL without us!! They begged to take Addi down early with them since we were not coming down until later in the week so when I found out they went without us I was so mad!!! I am just glad they took lots of pics and videos and I can tell she had a blast! I had to put a video of Addi on one of the little rollar coasters cause she watches it every day and it cracks me up! Her fav ride was the matterhorn with the "big scary snow man bear"! She has been talking about it all week!

Tea cup ride with ya ya and aunt savanah.

Addi got Tinkerbelle painted on her face
She got to meet her favorite princess "sleeping beauty Aurora". My parents said that she came and picked Addi out of the crowd and Addi talked her ear off!



Buzz Lightyear ride! Addi and Papa shootin their space guns!
