snowy owls

Snowy owls have been making themselves at home, relatively close to ours.  So, we thought we should go and look at them. 

cousins

We were so happy to have family come home for a visit.  We miss them so much.  And, I got to hold my new niece! I thought I would just post two pictures of all the cousins together, one from 2007 and one from now.  Funny, how much can change in 5 short years!

Disneyland: Day 5

Our last day. 
I can honestly say, I didn't want to leave and am already dreaming of when we can go again...
And, thank you SO much to my parents, who took us on this holiday.  We have so many memories to cherish.

Legoland

Okay, I'm back. :) 

On our fifth day in California, we took a bus down to San Diego, to Legoland!  My thoughts on Legoland you might ask?  It is great for kids.  Adults...not so much... ;)  But, that's okay, it's not always about us, right?

Disneyland: Day 4

Today was spent in California Adventures.
This is the day it poured.  And I mean poured.  I am no rain wimp. I live on the Wet Coast.  This rain rivalled any that we've had here.  Here are a few pictures before the camera was put away.

After dinner, we went back and wandered around Main Street.... and that is where we met the Mouse.

Disneyland: Day 3

Today, we ddin't break out the camera much...apparently.  But, we spent the day exploring Frontierland and New Orleans Square. 

One of our favourite dinner spots...IHOP :)

This is in California Adventures, as we were waiting for the World of Color.  It was so amazing.  I highly recommend it. 

Disneyland: Day 2

With a good night's rest and tummies full of complimentary breakfasts we made our way back to Disneyland.  On today's agenda... Fantasyland.

The boy is on here, too...

My boy and Pluto right after the dog gave him a big ol' lick. 

 (I love this picture, by the way.)
