More California Adventures!

We took a trip to Sea World, played at two different beaches, a park, swam at Uncle John and Aunt Jo's house, and fed some ducks with Gramps and Auntie... all in addition to the Disney Parks and Cousin Leah's Wedding-- what a packed vacation (Mama needs a vacation from her vacation!)

Cousin Leah's Wedding-- Saturday, July 19, 2008

It was a beautiful (if a little chilly) evening for Leah's wedding. Dana said she looked like a princess... I can't believe that little Leah is a married woman!

Disney Land and California Adventure-- July 16 and 17

C is for Cookie

Cookie Monster made an appearance at the Children's Museum today, so we went bright and early. Dana was the first person in line to see him.

Just hatched!

U-Haulin'-- Monday, July 7, 2008

Gramps and Auntie packed up the U-Haul and headed off for California this morning, but not before a few pictures with the truck!

Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens-- Sunday, July 6, 2008

Gramps came for a short visit, to help Auntie on her trip back to California, so joined us on our trip with Grandma and Grandpa and their friends Mindy and Sherry from Ohio to the Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens. Dana loves the Children's Garden.

Don't I look pretty?

Playing at the Zoo-- Wednesday, July 2nd

Face to face with a hungry giraffe-- "Mama, can I soft the giraffe?" (that's Dana's word for "pet", because we've always said "soft" whenever we let her pet animals)
Posing with a baby giraffe
A baby zebra-- "Awww, how cute!"

"Mama, why are those giraffes making an X?"
