Rylee Ashtyn
Sometimes my dark and crazy side comes out and my poor daughter just has to roll with it. She FREAKED when I asked her to stand by this tree. She slowly walked up to it and said "hurry mom, its freaking me out!!" haha.... so I really did try to hurry but I wasn't fast enough for her so she ran away just after I took this. I'm so glad I got this one though... sooooo cool and creepy!!

Beach day!!
The next day was all about RELAXING! I called my cousin Holly who lives in San Diego and met her and her kids at Huntington Beach. We dug holes, searched for sea shells, and fed the birds.
The next morning we slept in, packed up, and headed to Joe's Crab Shack before heading home.

Disneyland adventures
It's only the beginning of summer and the kids are already going crazy!! They've been telling us how bored they are and how they just might DIE if they don't do something. A little over dramatic as you can tell!
So off to California we went.... All I have to say is that Tuesday night was the WORST car ride of my life. I swear my kids were being extra bad since they knew there was no way we would really turn the car around and go back home. It was a car ride full of STOP HITTING ME, STOP LOOKING AT ME, DON'T TOUCH ME!!! Poor Dustin just kept taking long deep breaths, breathing in and out...in and out... eventually they fell asleep. :)
The next morning we got up early, ate breakfast, and were off to Disneyland. As soon as we walked in we went straight to Space Mountain. I knew it was the "scariest" of all the rides in Disneyland and I needed to get it out of the way for Bryson. He's a little scared when it comes to rides but like the big kid that he is, he did every ride just like a pro. Scared face and all. Below are the pictures of our day at Disneyland and California Adventure.
Space Mountain
Buzz Lightyear
Matterhorn
Indiana Jones Ride... don't they look sooooo happy?? Sheesh kiddos!
Haunted Mansion
Splash Mountain (before)
Splash Mountain (during) poor Bryce!
We ended our Disneyland portion of the day with a Mickey Mouse Visit and then headed over to California Adventure.
We knew as soon as we walked into California Adventure that we wanted to head straight over to the new Toy Story ride and check it out. It was by far the longest line. We waited about 40 mins but if you ask the kids they would tell you it was well worth the wait and I have to say I totally AGREE!!
Grizzly Rover Run
Rylee and Dustin ended the say with 2 rides on Scream! She loved it...him... not so much!
Back to the hotel we went, ate dinner, and went straight to bed. We were pooped!!

Where does time go????
It's been sooooo long since I've had time to blog.... who am I kidding?? I don't have time to wipe my butt these days. With kids, a husband, a full time job, oh and trying to launch a successful photography business.... ugg!
The kids are now on summer break and trying everything possible in those tiny little bodies of theirs to drive me absolutely cRaZy!!! Misson accomplished kiddos! So we're taking them to Disneyland/CA Adventure and the beach to hopefully burn off some energy. Please pray for me, pray that I have all the patients in the world as we stand in those lines. Even better pray for no lines!!
Dustin and I still love our jobs and all is well at Cox & NJOY!
Photography.... hahahahahaha well it's going.... as with any business adventure you constantly question yourself... do they like me.... what am I doing wrong.... when with this take off.... another added expense?? Oh I did get a pretty new 27" iMac! I think Dustin was more excited about that then I was!!
I did launch a new marketing campaign or something like it with a company called azcoups.com. It's like Groupon but not as expensive. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it brings in some new business. Groupon and companies like it can really hurt a photography business if not done right. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
I really hope to keep up on blogging but don't I always...
