C A L I F O R N I A !

We headed to California on Nov 11th. I do not really enjoy flying anymore. Even though Cassidy loves it for the first few minutes she gets restless easily. She did better on the first flight since she watched a few minutes of a dvd at a time. Plus the water bottle was a huge hit since she loved putting the cap on and off and drinking it. Lastly, there was a little boy right behind her who help her attention quite well. Overall: B+

As soon as we got there she was thrilled to see my parents. However, she was over the moon to see Donovan. She gave him soooo many kisses!

We took them to the park and they had so much fun together.

On this trip Cassidy fell in love.... with my brother John that is. I dont know what happened but she just followed him everywhere and always wanted to play with him and give him kisses and hugs. It was very cute.

We also went for a hot tub. I mean it was in the 70's all weekend!!! I was sweating the whole trip. LOL But it was nice to just be outside.

On Saturday we were off to celebrate my niece Sage turning 1! We went to this place in Sacramento that is kind of an arts/crafts place but with balls & tunnels as well. It was really neat and the kids had so much fun.

Isnt she so cute?!?! I can't believe she is 1!

After the party we all went back to James and Melissa's house for a nice family dinner. Here is the only shot I got of all the cousins.

We took the late flight back and so Cassidy was tired. It was a full and loooooong flight. Oh boy, it was pretty hard. We are heading to Hawaii in a month and all I can say is I am so glad Aaron will be with me to help! She tried to be a good girl but just hated being trapped. Overall: C-.

It was so nice to go home though! I cant wait to come home again in February for Cassidy's 2nd birthday.

Happy Halloween!

A little late but still Happy Halloween!! Our precious duck had soooo much fun!!! She would run up to every door then knock and smile so big when the person answered. She tried to go in each home ESPECIALLY if they had a dog (even if the dog was barking all mean). Then after she had her candy she would run into her daddy's arms on the sidewalk as we would clap. Then she would look at us and say "more more!" She would have gone all night! :)

Those were the before shots.

First we went to our friends house!

She knows their house so ran up the steps.

She waited so patiently.

More action shots.

We had so much fun this year!! Quack quack! :)
