Easter Festivities

The night before Easter we got together at my house to dye eggs. I LOVE dyeing Easter eggs! I had some eggs and my mom came with a bunch more. So we had a good time dyeing, chatting, and laughing.

The Easter bunny brought lots of candy and some other fun stuff. But the Easter bunny knows I'm still recovering from all the birthday gifts my boys got at their party, so he didn't go too overboard. Our 6th anniversary was on Easter, but we celebrated a couple days before.

Landon walked right to his basket and just kept saying "Oh, oh, ohhh!" It was so cute!

Bradley found all the eggs with a little help from Landon.

That night we had dinner at my moms. And the kids did a really fun Easter hunt throughout the house. We had a lovely Easter/anniversary. Sorry, I didn't get any pictures from Easter evening.

Pump It Up!

Last Sunday March 9th, we celebrated Bradley's 7th and Landon's 1st birthday's at Pump It Up in Henderson. I had it planned about 6 weeks in advance and wouldn't ya know 2 days before the party the boys both get sick! Bradley had a sinus infection and Landon had pink eye (yuck!), an ear infection, and croup. There was no way I could cancel it, so party we did! The birthday boy zooming down the slide. I think we were all lovin' the slide!

My little sick birthday boy with his Grandpa (post Mayor of Munchinland hair).

Bradley and his cousin's Andrew and JamiLynn. He was so sweaty!

This is my best friend Amanda's cute little girl Jersey. Check out her little piggy tails! We've arranged the marriage between her and Landon.

The Darrington Crew tearin' up the slide!

Karley, Riley, Mom, and Maddy

Paige is so tiny she flew down!

Bradley and his friends having a good ol' time.

This is Junior, one of Bradley's best buddies at school.

Landon had fun on the outside of the equipment, not so much on the inside.

Bradley's friend Colby.

Scotty man just chillin' in the Cozy Coupe.

Check out these hot babes hangin' out in there!

Landon was enjoying the Cozy Coupe too!

I took Landon down the slide and he was not diggin' it at all. Grandma took him down later and he still hated it. I think if he was feeling better he would've liked it better. Maybe??

This is BY FAR my favorite picture! You have to look at Frankie, Paige, and Karley's faces!!! SO FUNNY! I think Frankie was trying not to squish Paigey.

Landon wouldn't let go of Grandpa, not even for me! What-ever!

Riley, mom, and my best friend Amanda chattin' it up.

Karley, Kenidee, and Maddy were having lots of fun together.

I tried to get a picture of the birthday boys, but Landon was not havin' it!

Holy freakin' moly these boys made out like bandits! It was like Christmas morning when we got all this stuff home.

Another pic of Brad and Junior. Such cuties!

I had two different themes going on. Transformers for Brad.

Dogs for Landon. He loves doggies.

This room was my biggest (and only) complaint about Pump It Up. It was SO TINY in there! Everyone was squeezed in there. It got hectic with everyone trying to eat, cutting the cake, and opening presents. We had to pay for extra time and we were still pretty much kicked out at the end. They really need a bigger room!

Happy Birthday Bradley!!!

A Not-So-Happy Birthday Landon!!! Poor bubbies!

Bradley with his new skateboard from Frankie and I. We need to go skating with Karley so she can teach him some tricks. She's got mad skillz!

This was about 30 seconds after we loaded up the truck. They were so tuckered out!

Later that night we gave Landon some of his birthday cake. He liked to squish it in between his hands more than eating it!

We had so much fun and were so glad so many people could make it!!!

Our Trip to the Happiest Place on Earth!

We took our trip to Disneyland the week of President's Day. It was to celebrate Landon's 1st birthday (we were actually in the park for it) and Bradley's soon-to-be 7th birthday. Their birthday's are only 2 1/2 weeks apart so we can do that, I guess. Of course they are still going to have a party though. Our first night there we stopped by Grandma and Grandpa's. While the boys played with all the toys I used to play with as a child, and Grandpa and Frankie were in and out of naps, Grandma and I chatted. I love visiting with them and the boys LOVE the toys at Grandma and Grandpa Great's!I always get a picture of the boys with them and it 's fun to look back at how much they have changed.

This is Landon and Bradley lovin' Casey Jr. We were in the Monkey cage OF COURSE!!! Yes, they wore matching shirts. I was so excited because I can never find them matching stuff. Aren't they cute??

Landon hitched a ride on daddy's shoulder's a lot of the time when we were in line. He made A LOT of friends that way!!! He's quite the social butterfly! Frankie also wore a shirt that sorta matched the boys along with myself. I know it's dorky (and Dustin's totally going to make fun of me,) but it was fun for one of the days at D-land.

My boys on Storybook. I love how Landon's got his hand on Brad's head. He's always doing that.

I LOVE this picture of Bradley!!! He's just so handsome. I can't believe he's going to be 7!!! (And I'm 26 now! It just seems too weird!) Where did all the years go??

Bradley loves the Go Coaster in Toon Town. So you know we had to hit that up!

Landon took a little nap while we did that. What a sweet face.

Of course we had to get him Mickey ears with his name on the back even though he doesn't like to wear it for longer than 5 seconds. Can you tell he wants to yank it off?? He looks so cute for those 5 seconds though.

Bradley modeling his Pluto hat.

On our second day we started out at California Adventure. These are probably the slowest bumper cars on the face of the earth, but we always go on them when we're there. I guess it's 'cause they're cute.

This was too funny. While Bradley and I hit up Mulholland Dr. roller coaster, and the Jellyfish Jump Frankie strolled Landon around. When we met back up this is what we found. Landon fell asleep with his head on the tray and Frankie kept trying to lay him back, but his kung fu grip was too strong!

Just a close up of the sleepy baby. We eventually got him to release, and lay back! It still makes me laugh.

F is for Frankie! Yep, that's my man!

I told him to get "friendly" with the F. And I must say he "worked it" as Tyra would say. If you enlarge it look at the girl with her hand down her man's (?) pants. Yikes! No thanks!

Since there's no B, Bradley got comfortable in the O.

L is for Landon!

This is my favorite! We used to take pics in front of W. Rabbit's door (next to the Mad Hatter and the Tea Cups) when we were little. I've always taken Bradley's picture there. So this was Landon's first pic (and not his last) next to it.

We had so much fun at Disneyland! We went on everything and didn't have to wait in long lines (10-20 minutes). A lot of them we just walked right on to. The new Nemo ride was the longest line (45 min.) but it went by really fast, and the ride was really cool. I will always love it there. It reminds me of my childhood. We were lucky enough to grow up in Anaheim and go to Disneyland ALL THE TIME. I will never get sick of it!
