The Flight

I wish Danny would have gotten a picture of my face before boarding the plane. I was terrified! I hate to fly. I was so scared. It was our kids first time on a plane so I had to try and be brave for them. Of course they thought it was so much fun. Me, not so much…

Here are a couple pictures taken during flight. I didn’t take them of course. In fact, I made Sam keep the window closed so I couldn’t see a thing :)

Oh by the way, we’re on our way to Disneyland!

Summer Vacation 2010!!

Our summer vacation this year started off in Seattle. Believe it or not, being so close to Seattle, this was our first time there. Seattle is awesome! Being there reminded me how much I LOVE big cities! The huge buildings, all the people bustling around the streets. Love it! We only had the afternoon here since our flight left the next morning so we were only able to see a small part of Seattle, but it was fantastic!

After many recommendations, we ate at the Cheesecake Factory! (never been there either… I know, crazy) So yummy. I’m not even a big fan of cheesecake, but let me tell you this was the best darn cheesecake I’ve ever put in my mouth. I was so upset with myself for not taking a picture of it.

Next, the dreaded flight…..Ahhhhhh!!!

P.S. I know it’s been decades since I’ve posted on my blog. I’ve finally gotten photoshop to work on my new computer so I will be posting more. Check back soon.

Baseball!

Baseball season has begun. Thankfully the weather has been cooperating for the games. Last week we spent every night there. Even though it does keep us very busy and I complain often about having to be there so much, I really love it. I’m so glad that Sam and Nick enjoy it too.

Here are some pictures that my famous photographer friend Jenne took this past week.  Sorry I don’t have any of Nick yet. They’ll be coming.

HELP! I can’t use Photoshop….

We recently got a new computer that has windows 7. I installed my photoshop 6 but for some reason it won’t open. I searched online and it seems that it’s not compatible with windows 7. Now I have no way of editing my pictures to put on my blog :( Not sure what to do. If anyone knows how to correct this problem, let me know. In the meantime, I’ll look at these photos using another program and see if they’re good enough to put online.

It’s been way too long!

Seriously this is crazy! It has been months since I have posted anything on my blog. To those few of you that actually check my blog regularly, I’m sorry. I know you’d like to see what we’ve been up to and let me just say we’ve been busy. Obviously! The kids and I are on spring break this next week so I will do my best to update all of you. I honestly cant even remember the last picture I took. Hopefully I’ll find some around. Talk to you soon. Promise…

Ice Blocking!

Call me crazy but I had never heard of ice blocking before. On Christmas Eve we went with our friends the Kissell’s and the Stout’s ice blocking. For those of you like me that had no idea what it is, basically you find a hill ,sit on a block of ice and slide down. Sounds fun, right? Well, the kids loved it. Check them out!

Nick Ice Blocking

I never got any of Sam because he didn’t think it was “cool” enough until after I left. Does that sound like him or what?

Nick’s 11 Birthday!

Nick had his birthday this year with his friend Shad. They’re birthdays are only a few days apart, so we thought it would be allot of fun to combine them this year. They both invited a bunch of their friends and went over to Shad’s house to play some football. The weather wasn’t exactly warm but the kids didn’t mind. They both thought it was one of their best birthdays ever!
