Here are the kids all dressed up for my cousin Erin's wedding. I took these photo's on my parents porch before leaving. We have all really been enjoying the time spent here in California with family.

The "big trees"

The kids enjoyed going to Kings Canyon National Park to see the giant sequoia's. They especially liked looking for bears!

Disney on Ice

This was one great show! The kids (and parents) had a blast! Sarah's favorite part was Tinkerbell, and Ben's was Cars.......no surprises there ; ).

Happy halloween!

Ben still loves Lightning McQueen...he was quite smitten to get dressed up in his costume.

Trick or Treat!!

Sarah was SOOO excited to dress up as a fairy for halloween. She is adorable!!

Best Buds

I was amazed to get Sarah and Ben to sit still and pose long enough for this great photo. Enjoy!

Winter angels

Our Christmas photo....taken in December. The kids love playing in the snow...that is until they get cold and wet. They love it when I fill a tupperwear with snow for them to play with inside.

Beach beauty!

Here is Sarah at the outer banks last October. Her favorite part about the beach was picking up seashells and making sandcastles. We couldn't get her close to the water....she was plenty happy watching the waves from a distance.

What a handsome guy!!

This was taken last fall at the outer banks. Ben loved the beach! It warmed up enough while we were there for him to get his feet wet in the waves. After that, we could hardly keep him away from the water!
