I Love Boys


This is what I find on my kitchen table at least once a week. Preston and Harrison as the assistant "surprise" me with a lovely Mickey Mouse bowl full of flowers and "leaves in the middle for extra color". They are so loving and I always know exactly where they are coming from. Which brings me to my point.......WE ARE HAVING A GIRL and I am a little spooked! What am I going to do? I only know how to take care of boys!

Punishment or Parent Torture


Preston was "bad" the other night and I was on my last nerve, so in the heat of the moment I said "No Wii for a week, maybe that will make you think next time". In reality I was the one not thinking. I was not only punishing him...but mostly myself.
Today is a great day, the Wii has returned. Now maybe I can get a few things done while my children sit in front of the TV getting cramps in their fingers. MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU!

Amusement Park Marathon

Besides Las Vegas, we have not had a true vacation this summer. Utah was canceled because I was so sick, the price of gas was so high and the thought of traveling in a car for 24 hours didn't thrill me! So we decided to take advantage of the fact that we live in So Cal. We headed down to Legoland which was promptly followed by 2 FULL days of Disneyland and the Disneyland Hotel. What was I thinking? I all of the sudden I have sore muscles I didn't even know existed. I don't recommend this plan to anyone and especially anyone almost 6 months pregnant.


The boys had a great time and I guess that's what matters the most. In ten years Jeremy and I figure that we will be sitting on a bench on Main Street sharing some popcorn while the boys run from roller coaster to roller coaster. And we would be reminiscing about this particular trip wishing we could go back in time, just to ride It's a Small World one more time with them. We are exhausted by enjoyed every simple, childlike, magical moment.


Here are some photos of our adventures! Warning: Preston is all the sudden into having his photo taken and Harrison thinks its funny to make funny faces at the camera while I plead with him to stop.




The end of the night is pure bliss!! They were asleep with in minutes of crawling in bed.


Like father, like son.
We LOVE the character breakfast, it's a really fun thing to do for a birthday or some kinda of celebration!


Star Wars


I found a new favorite ride, Toy Story. It was sooo much fun, it was something that you didn't want to end and wish you could just ride it over and over again.

Jeremy and I purchased this stone about 10 years ago, when it was just the two of us. Its really neat to see the boys enjoy visiting the stone every time we go to Disneyland. We got a really good spot too its 6 stones due East, I suggest visiting it sometime.



Legoland, I always wondered why we had never gone before, I wonder no more!
The boys did enjoy building a car and then racing them, they spent so much time there I contemplated make a race track like this, but then reality set in.
