A new Addition to our Family...

We decided to add on to the family this week....


What do you think?

It's a Nissan Murano.  We traded in the Altima and were able to get a great deal on this mid-sized SUV.  Now maybe, just maybe, we will actually add on another little person to our family someday!  Haha!  (I'm totally joking.  We didn't get this car so that we could expand the family.  Although, having a little extra space might be helpful IF we decided to make Ryan a big brother someday!)

Disneyland Vacation

Last week we loaded up and  headed to Southern California for a few days of vacation at Disneyland and California Adventure!  This was Ryan's birthday gift and first trip to Disneyland.


He did pretty well with the rides.  Some of them he was too afraid to try, and that was ok.  We did a "parent swap" and we each got to ride the major rides we wanted to, while the other parent sat out with Ryan.  Ryan was brave and got on Splash Mountain ride!  He also rode the Thunder Mountain Railroad, which was a pretty quick-moving train ride!  His favorite "ride" was the Monorail!  Ha!  We rode it both days, at his request.

Here is our trip in a few pictures!

He wasn't afraid of the characters at all!  He is still upset that we never saw Donald Duck or Daisy Duck.  We got autographs of all the characters we did see, and have a nice memory book with the autographs and photos will go in as well.

I have more photos but Blogger wasn't cooperating with me last night.  I'll update more soon.  For now, it's back to work!
