Disneyland! October 2014

In October 2014 we had the chance to go to Disneyland with Joe and Crystal and their family!  It was a very last minute trip.  Like, we decided we were going on Sunday.  And then on Monday we went to Disneyland.  Connor worked half a day Monday morning, and then we drove and drove until we got to our hotel in Anaheim at midnight.  Then we spent 2 days at Disneyland and California Adventure, and then we drove home.

But it was so worth it!

Finally arrived at the hotel after a long day and night of driving.

Carousel with Uncle Joe!

Matthew's birthday video

Matthew Turned Two!

I'm back!  With so much to catch up on!

Matthew turned 2 on September 28th!  We had a Finding Nemo party and it was cute and fun.  I made the cake with the help of Kari.  I'm really happy with how it turned out.

As always, Matthew was very spoiled (in the best way).  He got a vacuum from our friends the Curtis', and he LOVED it.  It far surpassed all his other gifts until...

The car was the gift from Connor and I.  He went crazy over it.  And then it was back to the vacuum (like father, like son).

Apparently we need to talk about not talking on the phone while driving.

Or texting.

We felt so grateful to everyone who came to Matthew's little party.  We tried to keep things smaller for this birthday than for his first, and I think we mostly succeeded.  Matthew had a blast.  And now, several months later, all the toys are strewn about my house.
