Family Day

Today we went to Disneyland and we had such a great time, I thought it was something to post. We do go a lot, and love it every time we go for different reasons but today was something new. We ate at this BBQ place and they had Woody and Jessie from Toy Story there. That was our main reason for eating there, besides the all you can eat BBQ! Anyway, Hannah was so excited to see her favorite characters in person that she could hardly control herself. She was jumping up and down to see them. They must have really liked her because they spent almost the entire time with her! When other kids came, they greeted them very quickly then came straight back to Hannah.
She danced with them and they told each other secrets and gave lots of kisses. It was so special for me to see how excited she was to play with these two. And to have them pay so much attention to her was amazing. At one point she was so excited that she fell and got really hurt, Jessie came over to her and hugged, kissed and held her until she was better. It was just a great experience for us to see these two make her dreams come true. She loves them so much and now they are that much more real to her. 
It was a great day of family fun. I love seeing my girls smile and love being together. I am also so blessed to have such an amazing little girl. After every ride Hannah would say, "Thank you Mamma for taking me to Disneyland!" She is very polite and so grateful for the little things in life. I am glad we have passes and get to go often, the best investment ever in my opinion.
This is just a clip of how much fun Hannah had with Woody. This pretty much went on the whole hour and a half we were there!

Easter, Eggs and Eleven months

This Easter Leah turned eleven months old. She is growing so fast and is the best baby in the world! I am so in love with her and so lucky to have such an amazing baby. I rarely see these two apart these days and I hope they stay best of friends. 
Leah got a big girl car seat and she is so happy! She is getting too big.
Sisterly love is a beautiful thing
Leah's first Easter and she loved the eggs. Shaking them was the best part I think but sitting in the grass, not so much!
We go to my parents house every year and the grandkids do an egg hunt, they have so much fun playing together and we love being over there. Hannah did very well and helped Leah get some eggs too. 
Don't mind Hannah's silly face, I just love Leah's big front teeth! She is so stinking cute!

And our sad attempt at a family picture. The kids are always so excited to be around their family that they will never sit still, so here it is. All in all, it was a great day. Scott was off and that is always a happy day in itself, the food was great, the company was awesome and the drama was minimal, so that was a great day!  (P.s. there were other kids there but they were not caught on film. It was very cute that all the girls minus Leah had the same dress on, it was priceless.)
