Family Vacation 2010

We had a really awesome family vacation. It started with Disneyland and California Adventures for 3 days. 3 days was a little much for me but we had a great time. The kids loved it. After a few days of being there Jackson told me that he figured out why this place had the last name of Disneyland, I asked and he replied because everything that is on the Disney channel is here. When you ask him what he liked best he says everything except dark tunnels and the 100 acre woods. So evidentally Winnie the Pooh which is one of my favorites is not his.

After Disneyland we went to see my brother Tyler. It was so much fun to see him. We hung out on the beach and the kids had a blast. Makenna loved the sand. She wasn't a big fan of the rides at Disneyland but she LOVED the beach.

Next we went to Knotts Berry Farm. This was the kids favorite. They had most adult rides shrunk down to kids rides and they had a blast. There were no lines we loved it. Poor Kayden got a major sunburn but even he enjoyed the day.

Saturday morning Tyler took us to Breakfast at the cutest breakfast restaurant I have ever been to. You had to hike to a cove and it was right on the beach. The kids had so much fun playing and getting wet and eating the best French toast ever made. All in all we had a wonderful trip but it was so nice to get home even if it is windy and snowy.

Best Easter Party Ever

A few years ago I bought a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse DVD and the story was "The Best Easter Party Ever". Ever since, Jackson has told me that we have to have a party just like the one on the movie. We have to have a banner with glitter and glue, Decorated eggs and we can't forget the cake. The first two years I put it off and finally this year I caved. I had been punished every month because he wanted to know when Easter was. What month do we get to have the Best Easter Party Ever? Is April after November... December.... January... finally April came and we got to have our party!!! HOORAY

Saturday we had our Easter Picnic with the Trickey's and Grandma Ruthy. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day. There was NO WIND!!! Kayden got his first sunburn, his mama is going to have to get used to Sunscreen. We had a wonderful day playing with cousins and just being WARM outside.

Sunday was another AWESOME day! It was Makenzies' Birthday. My little sister is so dang awesome that I don't know what I would do without her. In the 4 short years that I have been a mom Makenzie has been known as Bak, Mak, My Mak, Matie Macky and I am sure there are many more that I can't think of right now. I hate that she is 16 and boys (like your going to read this) you better not mess with her because we have 2 brothers that can be mean and myself who is very protective over our Matie!!
