U2 Concert

Last week I was lucky enough to join in with some of my siblings and go to the U2 360 degree concert!  I haven't been to a concert since college and I was super excited.  This concert, however, surpassed anything I have ever been too, it was incredible and I loved every minute of it!

Promotion

Addie had her preschool promotion earlier this week, I can't believe she has completed a year of preschool!  It was fun to see her sing the songs and recite a poem.  We are so glad her friend Oliver was in her class along with all the new friends she made.  All of the kids were sitting on the floor in a circle eating their refreshments, I asked Addie if she wanted to sit on a chair by me, she quickly said she wanted to sit by her friends.  It was cute and sad all at the same time, she is growing up so fast!  For her last day of preschool they had a carnival, I forgot my camera :(  It was fun to watch her interact with her friends, and she was able to show off some of her tumbling skills. 
Izze wanted to be in every picture.
I wanted a picture by the red door since that is where I took her first day of school picture, but it was cold and raining outside so I took it inside; clearly I have no photographic skills.

It is blurry, but this is the friend circle.

Birthday Trip

A few months ago I started hinting to Andrew that a trip to Disneyland would be so fun for my birthday...and it was so fun!!!  We lucked out by staying at my sister's house and getting discount park hopper tickets from a lady at Andrew's work.  The weather was great, the drive was long, the girls loved most of the trip, and I wish we were still there :)
We stopped in Vegas for dinner at Raising Cane's, Izze piled all of this food onto her napkin to eat. 
We went to Ruby's Diner for my birthday lunch, so yummy and fun!  They even sang to me and gave me a hat to wear.
Walking down the pier back to the beach
Addie and her cousin at Newport Beach
Playing in the waves and sand
Oh I love this place :)
Izze loved the carousel at California Adventure, she could not get enough of it.
Disneyland on my birthday, yay!!!  We didn't take many pictures this day, too much fun.
We stayed to see Color of Wonder only to have it stop working after 2 minutes :(, so bummed.  Addie fell asleep on Andrew's shoulder as we were walking back to the car.
Izze was wide awake and yelling most of the walk back to the car, then fell instantly asleep.
Izze wanted nothing to do with the water, which was fine by me, she loved playing in the sand and sitting on the towels.
Addie loved the beach until it was time to go and she had to be cleaned up, her current opinion of the beach is that she never wants to go back, oh that will just have to change!
Addie and Izze loved playing with their cousins and having freedom to play outside whenever they wanted to since the weather was so pleasant.  We had such a fun trip, I'm already trying to figure out when we can go back!!!

Reading books in the morning!
