Monterey Bay

Monterey Bay!

So yesterday we went down to Monterey and visited the Aquarium with our friends Greg and Heidi. It was a nice warm 60 degrees! Gotta love Monterey in the spring. Monterey is a cool town. Sadly, I haven't been there since I've lived here! We're trying to make it a goal to see all the great places here in the bay area before we are suddenly gone!

Roy, Angela, Heidi, Greg and Emily (apparently trying to get into Heidi's shirt, and yes she is 9 months prego)

Weekend with the Cousins.....

We headed up to Sacramento this weekend. It was a lot of fun. My sister, Holly, and her family were visiting from Boise. Dane is back for good, and my brother, Brandon, and his family came up on Saturday. It was the WHOLE meal deal. Emily loved being around all the kids.

Grandma and Emily...but the real reason for this photo is to note Dane in the background and his buffness! haaa. He's single! If anyone knows of a fine young lady for him feel free to let me know!

My, what chubby cheeks that snake has.

All the cousins at grandma's house.

How's this pucker?

Finally a chair just my size!

Yes, you see that correctly...I am riding a froggie!

We're Back!!

We're BACK!!!! After taking over a year hiatus, I am finally BACK! I was having a few technical difficulties logging in with the new system, but not to worry I figured it out! =)


Well, it has been one awesome year with little Miss Emily. I won't go back over the whole year, because as you know with a new baby there is LOTS to write about. I am just going to take over from this point on.

However, I will recap the past couple months.....

HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY EMILY!

The little lady had her 1st Birthday! She is a full on grown up now. She had lots of friends come and celebrate with her. Emily had her first taste of cake, and well...by the looks of it, I think she likes it!


Hawaii Time

We have been traveling maniacs. Roy and I went on a Hawaiian Cruise with my parents, while Roy's parents graciously came to stay with Emily. It was fun, and a great way to see all the Islands.


A few weeks later we headed to Hawaii again. This time it was on official business! But Roy got to bring us with him. Emily had a great time. Except on the airplane! None of us had a 'great' time then, let me tell ya!

DISNEYLAND!
Emily, Daddy and Mickey at Disneyland

The past 2 weekends we have been in Orange County. Last weekend we went to Disneyland. It was Emily's not first but second trip to Disneyland!! Oh did I mention she is one seriously spoiled little lady. Yeah, well, she is. However, she is the happiest girl around so we just can't help ourselves. She just LOVES people. She giggles at everyone and waves to them. She is quite the social butterfly.

Emily has an announcement to make......

Emily walking with her purse!

I WALK!

She wants to tell you that she is a professional walker now. Her debut was at Disneyland. She was doing the walk/crawl bit for a week or 2, but at Disneyland there was so much to see, she couldn't contain herself and started taking off in every direction (except the direction mom and dad wanted to go, of course!) So she is cute as a button waddling around the house.
