CA 2010

Tyler at Jedi training season...

the Buzz ride with Maddie

The cutest little toe head in California, cousin Brady.

Only wonderful Grammy's wait in the line for Dumbo... :)

My favorite was watching this little guy drive like he was a Nascar driver.

Jeff tried hard to beat Lily's score during BUzz, this was no child's play.

One fabulous reunion with the Jones Family. There were 9 grandkids, lots of aunts and uncles, a cute Grammy and Grampy and "too much FUN" as Lily would say. We swam in a celebrity style backyard pool where Tyler scared his mom with dangerous jumps. Hit the beach and braved windy weather twice. Went to a small zoo and had Aunt Amanda teach us about skulls and feathers. Spent one day at the happiest place on earth---DisneyLand. Had one delicious and wonderful family Sunday dinner BBQ'd by the men. The best part of all was just being with family. Even though we don't get to visit as often as we wish, we love them all so much and look forward to next time!

Girls and flowers

I had a blast getting together with my sister in laws and crafting some hair flowers! They inspired me to come home and make more... They are so fun and creative and I wish I lived closer to them.

It got me a teeny bit more excited to meet this baby girl. The felt ones are fun and easy to make with endless possibilities... the satin ones are beautiful and more versatile for older girls and mommies!... and I'm just getting started with the vinyl. :) Love this! Already dreaming up more ideas for different combinations!
