One of my best friends celebrated her birthday at Disneyland with her mom, and I was lucky enough to be there and take pictures. A fun day for everyone!

cousin day: part 1

What a fun day at Disneyland with all the little cousins. I think technically, they're cousins-once-removed (?) but either way, they are family! I've mentioned before that I love going to Disneyland with kids because of the excitement. This trip was no exception. Here are the boys just being boys:

The biggest brown eyes you'll ever see. This is the spitting image of my husband as a toddler.

birthday girl!

Happy 29th Birthday! Remember: "If you didn't have a birth certificate, how old would you be?"

surprise!!

I just love surprise parties...

birthday party for mom #2

She hates when I call her my Mother-In-Law because it always sounds worse than it is. So she's my Mom #2. And this was her 65th Birthday! We had the party in our Aunt's BEAUTIFUL backyard - she is host to many events. And everything was just lovely.

She was so excited to spend the day with her friends and family!She and Dad #2 have been married for 35 years!

Had the opportunity to join these cute boys for a Disneyland Birthday celebration. I just love being around kids and seeing the excitement in their faces for everything. Such a fun day!

75 and counting...

Surprise!! My Father-In-Law's 75th Surprise Birthday was great. Everyone put in so much hard work and it paid off. He was so honored that so many people were there to acknowledge him and celebrate with him. His eyes just lit up!!
