Weekend Fun

We had a fun visit with my parents over the last weekend. They obviously snapped lots of great shots and thought I would post and share some here too.

We went to Chuckie Cheese and played at the park and enjoyed some time relaxing and playing and letting the kids get spoiled of course too.

Always nice to have visitors to share a fun weekend with.

DisneyLand Fun

So we finally had an opportuntiy to take our children to Disneyland to the first time earlier this week. What a memorable experience it was and so much fun. Logan was a little unsure what to expect or what it was all about but it didn't take long to get the hang of it and enjoyed all the fun he could. He loved th ToyStory BuzzLight year ride, the Autopia Cars, and the Nemo Submarine ride. We even got to all ride on Pirates all together which was one of my personal favorites. Anika was such a trooper all day and slept in her stroller and enjoyed some rides with us.

We can't wait to go back again soon hopefully and enjoy more fun together!!

We also enjoyed some fun at Newport Beach the day after and had a blast there too. Logan loved the sand and waves and our car brought back half the beach I think :) We enjoyed beautiful weather but hopefully won't get lost on our way home next time. (6 hours in a car with a teething baby is not exactly fun) I was nervous that Logan would be bored and not have anything to do there, but boy was I wrong. I bet he could have stayed all day and loved every minute of it.

look who thinks she is abig girl

Yes Annika just started figuring out how to get her self around at 6 1/2 months old.

Its slow and not all the way there but she sure is determined and and mover herself a couple of feet before falling on her face from pure exhaustion, It is so adorable.

I am not sure I am ready for 2 mobile children but ready or not, here she comes!!!

pittsburg pride

So we have to gloat in our steeler family pride after sundays big super bowl win, I'm not a huge football fan but that the last 10 minutes of that game were pretty intense and fun to watch and might just have tuned over a new leaf for me

Just some fun pix of us in our game gear and having super bowl snacks, (even if you don't watch the game you have to admit the excuse to eat all that yuumy food is sure nice)

Just the kids having some fun during our first week of 2009

Santa Came

so here are some of the fun memories that we captured on christmas morning. I think our favorite momemt was when Logan opened up his new Back to the Future Delorian car. He was so excited and has been flying it around ever since. He got about 10 new disney Cars cars and also has new "homes" for all of them, which is nice for Layne and I.

It took about 3 hours to get through everything and we all had such a fun time together. Annika is enjoying her new walker and baby einstein toys and making messes with biter biscuits.

We made lots of fun memories and enjoyed another wonderful christmas.

Frosty

So better late than never right? We did take advantage of the excitement of snow in Vegas and Layne and Logan made a snowman in our backyard. They sure had fun and of course I grabbed the camera and tried to capture the moment. I know its a couple of days late but the news is still buzzing around here about "The Storm of 2008" as the news keeps referring to it. Layne and I just laugh at the national attention for 3 inches of snow when lots of other places around the country are getting pounded with feet of it.

But making Frosty is fun no matter where you are!

Would you believe . . . . .

It is snowing in Vegas, yes you heard me right it is snowing in las vegas! Pretty crazy I know but it has been lightly falling for almost 5 hours now. There is actually about 2 inches accumulated everywhere. It looks pretty wrong to see palm trees being weighed down with it but Logan sure had fun playing in it today. We were glad we had a coat for him to wear, (thanks to handmedowns from our cousins, we love it!) So we thought we'd share a bit of our excitement with you in case you didn't believe it when you heard. I didn't believe it myself when came and told me that it was snowing, I didn't think he would remember since he was 18 months when we left Cedar. So we may get to share in a white christmas this year too.
