Happy 4th Birthday Taylor!!

We decided rather then have a birthday party for Taylor, that we would use our annual passes and go to Disneyland to celebrate her 4th birthday. They were so excited to go see Minnie and Mickey! Grandma Debi bought Colbie this adorable Minnie Mouse outfit and she actually didn't mind wearing it as you can see in the pictures below. As soon as we got to Disneyland we got Taylor her Snow White dress. Thanks to Courtney and Angelo for the Disney gift card and to Eric and Channone for the check to use at Disneyland she was able to get this adorable Snow White dress.
They were so happy to be there! Our little Minnie Mouse all smiles.
And then there is the birthday girl Snow White.
Daddy and his girls waiting to go into Playhouse Disney. This is one of their favorite spots so we went there first. They loved seeing Mickey Live. They were able to dance and sing along. Neat place!

Colbie was sleeping so Justin and Taylor went on the Toy Story ride. This is one of my favorite rides, but I got to go on it last time we went while Colbie was sleeping.
Another one of their favorite places to go is Mickey's Toon Town. They can go in all the houses and play with everything. As you can see how happy Colbie is....

Birthday girl go to sit with the birthday balloons in Mickey's house.
We all got to meet Mickey this time, Colbie slept through it last time...he was so cute in his winter gear.
Donald's house was on a boat, they loved that!
I have been wanting to go to Disneyland during Christmas for sooooo long and we finally got to see it all lit up. What a magical place! This is Sleeping Beauty's castle.
The second day we went was Taylor's actual birthday. She got to wear a birthday pin and everyone said happy birthday to her, which she thought was so cool. She told everyone she was 4! One of Taylor's many favorite characters is Alice and she got to meet her this time. She was very excited!
The decorations are simple gorgeous! This tree was huge and you can't see the top, but it was beautiful!

Then we waited in line for what seemed like forever to meet the Disney princesses. You never know who you will get to meet since they are behind this wall that looks like a castle, but the girls got to meet Ariel, Cinderella, and Tiana ...it was worth the wait.


Colbie once again was napping while Taylor got to meet Pluto and Ms. Clause.

She woke up just in time to meet Santa....it was decorated so neatly as if it was his house....you got to take your pictures with him. So cute!

Then we went on the Mark Twain boat, which again the girls really enjoyed.

We met Maleficent this time too....she was scary as you can see...haha.
We chased down Mary Poppins and they were so adorable!
Before we left we had to get a tasty treat for the birthday girl! Happy 4th birthday Taylor!!! We can't wait to go back again soon!!

Lots of Halloween fun!

So I realized after I loaded most of the pictures that they were out of order, sorry! It takes too long to redo them. So we had a long week of Halloween!! This is Noah and the girls after trick or treating. They all loved it! Colbie really got the hang of it this year so it was a lot of neat for us to watch them!
The girls at the door waiting....
Taylor said after ever house, "just one more house mommy".

We went to a church carnival before going trick or treating and it was a lot of fun for the kids. They had games, food, bounce houses and things for the kids...so neat! I think it will be something we try to do every year.


Colbie and daddy waiting to play some games.
Saturday we went to the Harley shop for a costume contest and some trick or treating. It was something new this year and Colbie won the cutest costume....

Then last week we had a party at Taylor's dance class Toddle Fitness. Colbie also won a prize for the costume contest. She sure was a cute ladybug!
Taylor got to perform her little pumpkin dance. She loved performing and was so funny to watch! I have it on video if any of you want to see it!
Colbie and daddy waiting for everything to start...
They had coloring for the kids, games, face painting and performances, it was a fun event!
Thursday morning my mom's playgroup had a Halloween party and we did some early trick or treating around her neighborhood. The kids enjoyed it and they were all so cute!

Pumpkin patch!!

Last week we went to the Visalia Vossler Pumpkin farm with my mom's playgroup. The girls had so much fun playing in the corn box, the maze, and picking out the perfect pumpkins. We hope to go back and bring daddy since he had to work.



The girls loved wandering down the patch looking at all the pumpkins....we brought 3 mini ones home and 3 big ones...I couldn't carry anymore so we need to go back and get one more for daddy!


All the kids got together for a group photo...they are so cute! We do need some more girls in the group, they are outnumbered by all those boys!
