St. Patrick's Day Pics

Here are our little leprechauns decked out in their green for St. Patrick's Day!





Blair and Sydney

One of our neighbors is a three year-old named Sydney who is just Blair's age.  They are now best friends, and even better, Sydney and her parents have Disney passes!  Last night, we went out there for dinner and the two of them were too cute:


Here is a video of them too:

Date Nights and Winter Fun

 Here are some random pictures we have taken over the past few months.  Brack and I have been lucky to go out on two dates!!!!  We went out in Seal Beach while Grandmom and Grandad were visiting and had a great dinner.


The Saturday after Valentine's Day, we went to Disneyland for dinner.  It was so nice to enjoy a meal without kids!


Of course we have had plenty of family fun too.  Blair has discovered pigtails.


Brack and the kids have been on a couple bike rides.


Boys love their afternoon naps.


And cookies are always a hit.  Especially chocolate ones.



Lake Arrowhead

We took the kids to Lake Arrowhead this weekend to see snow.  Blair learned about snow last month at preschool and they had never seen any in real life, so we have been talking up snow for the past few weeks.  Every time one of them would act up, we would claim if they weren't good, they wouldn't get to go see the snow.

Unfortunately, there wasn't much snow.  We found a couple of patches at the house we rented.  Blair got right to shoveling!



We had dinner at a 1950s diner one night.


We checked out Lake Arrowhead Village and fed the ducks.



The highlight of the trip was the tubing park.  Most parks have a height or age limit, but this one was "parental discretion" only, which was perfect.


 By the end, Blair was even going down some of the hills by herself!


After a couple of runs, Will was content to sit in the snow and wait for Blair.


Both kids decided that they needed a snow snack.








On our last night, Brack built a fire and we hung out on the couch.  What a great getaway!



Chinese New Year at Disneyland

California Adventure celebrated the Chinese New Year and of course we were there!


Blair and Will were able to meet Minnie all dressed up for the new year.



Mulan introduced a special Chinese dancing performance.





Valentine's Day 2013

Catching up on some blog posts today.  Here are our pictures from Valentine's Day.  Jenn attempted to flat iron Blair's hair and we had a great time celebrating the day of love.




The lucky kids ate a heart-shaped pizza for dinner


and chowed down on some homemade cookies!
