Disneyland!

Disney! We went to Southern California beginning of June. We had such a GREAT time! We stopped in and visited Jay's aunts and uncles in Palm Springs for a day, then headed to Newport. I am saving most stories for scrapbooking, that is if I get around to doing it, but a couple of fun things that we did while we were there:

ROLLER COASTERS! The kids are now tall enough to go on more rides. It took a little convincing but they went on Matterhorn, Splash Mountain, Thunder Railroads and Soar'in. They loved them all, in fact their top three rides include those! Aaron went on Soar'in six times and each time was excited about it!

OCEAN! We love the beach, playing in the sand, the kids chasing after the waves. Jay and I actually went into the water and played in the waves. I did have some anxiety about it the whole time, but after was proud of myself for doing it. It was fun, except for every time a big wave came I thought, I hope I don't drown!

FAMILY! We saw Penny, Kristine, Tony and Darlene! We loved seeing them, talking with them, laughing and enjoying their company.

Great vacation, getting back has taken me about a week to recover (aka getting my butt back in reality) but it was so worth it.

I love the look on Janie's face, this captures our experience!

Twins Game

Okay, so I had to download pictures from my camera to remember what we have been doing the last couple of weeks.

On May 29th we went to a Twins Game at the new baseball field here in Minneapolis. It was such a nice day and the big thing about this field is that is is an outdoor field (previous one was in a dome). It was BEAUTIFUL and we had a lot of fun. Although it was too bad we could never find the guy selling Kettle Corn! We did however enjoy a foot long hot dog, a lot of smuggled in swedish fish and licorice and the kids got their favorite, Dippin Dots.

It was so cute because Aaron and Jay were reviewing the game of baseball and Aaron asked after ever hit if that was a home run. Then finally when the Twins did hit a home run Aaron asks, "was that a single?"

Evidence that I do attend events with the family!

Aaron's Preschool graduation

Aaron graduated from preschool yesterday. His school was so great and did a great program. The kids sang a couple songs, then received their diplomas. It was adorable! Aaron is so excited for kindergarten, in fact he told me:

Aaron: "I'm in kindergarten now.

Me: "well you will be in September".

Aaron: "no mom I'm done with preschool, now I'm in kindergarten."

He is so excited that's for sure! Me, I'm a little sad that he will be gone everyday. Glad we are only doing half day though. I'm not ready for him to be gone all day!
