Investigating Starfish

The kids and I took a trip to Sea World (Thank you Babcia!) last week on one of those really hot days. We found ourselves investigating starfish for a quite a while. Owen and Elizabeth asked to have a picture taken every time they picked up a new starfish. I had a lot of deleting to do on my camera when we got home.:) Here are just a couple pics from our fun adventure.

Elizabeth's Big Girl Bed!

Our little Buggies moved into a big girl bed this week and the transition is going great so far! Hooray for Elizabeth. These sweet little years are flying by so fast. She does look tiny in a twin bed but she seems to be enjoying the change.

Spending time with the Chapmans

The Chapman family invited us to their family's lakehouse in Lake Arrowhead this weekend. Chris and Rebecca are old friends from our college days and we always enjoy spending time with them. We had the chance to get to know their little ones Nicholas(almost 3) and Samantha (almost 1) as well. They are fun and easy friends to hang out with. Thank you for a relaxing and wonderful time Chapman Family!The Gang at Arrowhead Village
Nicholas and Owen became buddies instantly!

Elizabeth enjoyed playing with the boys as well.

Friends, Fun, and SNOW!

This past weekend our family drove up to the mountains to visit some old friends who are currently living in the the Big Bear area. We had a great time catching up with our dear friends, Mende, Dave, Parker and Levi. We also had the chance to enjoy the snow. Here a a few pics. Thanks for a fun time Kitzman Family. We love you all very much!

Our Trip to Disneyland

Our Big D passes expired this week so we decided to take advantage of our last Disney days and spend 2 nights there.We hung out with the Sanguinetti Family for a Nemo Ride and then enjoyed a couple more exciting days with the Boldt Family. Thank you Grammy and Papa for taking us last year so that we could enjoy these passes all year long. Here is a cute slideshow I experimented with on animoto.com
