First things first. I mentioned we did a little family photo shoot back in August. The pictures are lovely. Here are some sneak peeks for you!
And the best part? These aren't even the best ones! So many adorable pictures of my littles. But I have to save the best ones for our holiday cards! =) We spent the day out at Tomales Bay visiting Hog Island Oyster Company and the Marshall Store. Good food, and beautiful pictures. I also had Ron Miller take some photos of the kids in Nick's corvette since we are working towards selling the car even though we do love it. This was a way to capture its beauty in our family.
Early September we found ourselves traveling down to southern California for a family vacation at Disneyland. We visited with Nick's Aunts and Uncles down there and played at the "happiest place on Earth" for a few days. It was a very nice week. Something I realized we need to do more often. It is too too easy to get caught up in the craziness of daily life, especially with two young children. To take some time to just get away from it all is so important. The kids particularly benefit from some relaxed time with the four of us together. Bella went on her first big kid rides. She went on Splash Mountain- twice! Once with me and once with Nick. She also went on the Tower of Terror. She wasn't such a big fan of that. I think mostly she found the lead up to the ride scary. If it was a simple elevator ride with no spooky start, she probably would have giggled through the whole thing. Finally she went on Soarin Over California. She really liked that too. She is still waiting to be big enough to go on the roller coasters. It will be interesting to see how she takes to those! She is big enough for Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, but it was closed for renovations. I suspect she will LOVE it once she can go on it. I'm sure there are probably some other stories to tell but frankly, it's been too long for me to remember all the details! Here are the pictures from Disney...
