Orange County/Kelly & Naomi's Wedding

This weekend we went down to Orange County for a long weekend to celebrate Auntie Naomi & Uncle Kelly's wedding.  We had a busy weekend (which included Dylan's 1st trip to Disneyland) but we had a great time celebrating with Kelly & Naomi and the rest of our family. Unfortunately, my camera decided to crap out as we went to take our 1st picture at Disneyland-- which means I didn't get a lot of pictures. But Auntie KK did, so we'll post some soon. The good news is that I got a fancy new camera to capture lots of great shots from the wedding & the rest of the weekend.

Dylan, Daddy & a Day at Discovery Kingdom

Dylan got to take a trip to Discovery Kingdom today all by himself with Daddy. It was originally supposed to be a family trip, but Savannah got in trouble for being sassy (the joys of raising a stubborn little girl) and didn't get to go. So off Daddy & Dylan went, while Savannah & I cleaned out my closet and ran errands. We ALL ended up having a great day and although I didn't snap any of pictures of Savannah and I, here are some cute shots from the boys' adventure...

Checking out Thomas

So HAPPY & EXCITED!!!

 him that he was 2, not six (which was the number of his swing).

Mitch's 35th

We celebrated Mitch's 35th birthday this last weekend with a trip to SLO with some good friends. We dropped the kid's off with Pommy & Papa (THANK YOU Pam & Dell!!!!) and headed off to start Mitch-a-pallooza-- yes we even had shirts made :) The weekend was filled with wine tasting & relaxing on the central coast. We rented a fabulous little casita in the hills of Edna Valley over looking the vinyards-- it was beautiful and we had a great time. HAPPY 35th Mitchell!!!

Me & my birthday boy

The girls... Julia, Molly & me

I didn't do a great job as photographer over the weekend-- sorry! Luckily Julia had her camera and took lots of great pictures-- once I get some more from her I will post them.

First Day of Kindergarten...

Today was a BIG morning-- Savannah had her first day of kindergarten! She was so excited & ready to go to kindergarten and I know she will do great. It was definitely  harder for me & I have been weepy all morning :) She is going to a wonderful little school and only has 22 kids in her class-- which is pretty remarkable in today's public school system. There is only 1 grade per class & a very active PTA-- which I have already been recruited to participate in... I am going to co-chair the non-wine donations for the big annual fundraiser. I am sure I will be hitting you all you up donations :) Here are some pictures from the morning...

She insisted on curly hair the 1st day of school

The Wiggles

We went go go see the Wiggles a few weeks ago. Both kids have actually seen them once before-- Dylan was just a new born though and obviously didn't participate much :) This time was a whole different story! The trip was planned mainly for him-- and he LOVED it!  But Savannah had a great time too. Of course Mitch & I enjoyed seeing the excitement in their eyes and the fun they had singing and dancing along!

It's starting...
