Danny's Birthday!

I can't believe he is already 5 years old, time does fly, he will be starting school this year and I will have one at home, my son is growing up!

I took Danny to Disneyland on his birthday this year. Because we have annual passes, and disneyland is letting people in free on their birthdays, Annual pass holders get a gift card of the amount of a ticket into the park. Danny got a gift card of 59 dollars to spend on merchandise in the park. We had a great day, I brought a friend of his and we went on big rides and he got to buys some fun things with is card. Overall I think he had a great day!

Fellow readers!

I know that there are fellow readers out there and I am just curious what you would rate as your top five book picks of right now, they may change the more books I read. So I tag all of you. Here are mine in no particular order:
1. Twilight (I love this first book of the series, because it introduces and Edward is so mysterious)
2. Poison Study (amazing story, amazing woman character and just alot of fun)
3. Austenland (for my romantic side)
4. Any harry potter, just all amazing stories
5. Thousand splendid suns (love learning and feeling really connected to the characters)

So tell me yours and maybe there will be one that I would like to read!

It is that time of year again when Danny gets to play Tball! He has been so excited to play that he asked me every week after I signed him up if it was time to play. Joe is coaching his team they are the reds. Ty Johnson and Aaron Wheeler are on his team. It is somewhat chaotic but it is fun.

Go Clippers!

Joe was able to get clipper tickets cheap because he is a teacher. We we planned an evening with David (he is a teacher too) and Melissa and had a double date. It was really fun hanging out, eating peanuts, cheering and laughing. The clippers beat the kings by like 30 points.

Happy Easter

We had a nice easter this year. My wonderful mother made my girls matching dresses and had enough fabric left over to make two purses and a cute bow tie for danny to wear. I think they all look so adorable!

My parents put numbers in eggs so the kids could pick prizes, this was hilarious, Jenna, Danny and Sydney (their cousin) picked these glasses, I just love it!

Kayla had a great time with her favorite cousin Allie!

Danny loved hanging out with his favorite cousin Wyatt, who he calls Tush Tush! In fact, they get to spend time with these cousins when Joe and I go to the temple. When Danny hears this every day his prayer is thanking Heavenly father for letting him go to Wyatt's house, I think it is just adorable!

The timeshare!

During this spring break we were able to go and spend time at a timeshare in Anaheim. We went to Disneyland on the Thursday and then we went into Long Beach on the Friday (April 2,3). We had a great time, the kids love staying in a resort hotel, with a heated pool and spa. We had fun at the different places spending time together as a family and relaxing. I love vacations like this.

On the way to the pool at the timeshare they had these dolphin benches I could not resist getting a picture

I love this picture! It was down in long beach

It was a beautiful day in Long Beach, we could see the Queen Mary really well.

It has become a tradition to take pictures in the places we stay. This is the kids room!

It was fun seeing Kenin from Brother bear at California Adventure

Days at Disneyland with Grandparents!

Joe's parents came down from Oregon to visit different family members and stopped into spend time with us before they made their way back to Oregon. We spent one day at Disneyland with them. We had a great time going on rides and just relaxing. Danny did not want to ride with anyone but Grandpa the whole day, they became official ride riding partners.
