We're Baaaaack!!

Hey all, we got home yesterday afternoon and had a GREAT time! We really enjoyed our week off just hanging out with my family and having fun. We started off at Disneyland and spent three days going back and forth between Disneyland and California Adventure. It was rainy for one of the days, but that didn't put a damper on our fun at all. We had some ladybug sightings, as you can see in these photos.

This is in front of one of the kiddie rides in California Adventure...
In our hotel parking lot, one of my nieces had me take a photo of this license plate she found...Joe is a really good sport...I love to make him try on those goofy hats and take photos of him. No matter how goofy the hat, he always plays along as you can see here...
In front of California Adventure, my nieces decided to pose at the "L" for Lauren...
You all know how amazing the landscaping is at Disney. I LOVE poppies, so these really caught my eye...
After a few days at Disney, we drove to my brother's condo in Rocky Point, Mexico to chill on the beach for a couple of days. Here's a photo of his condo development, Bella Sirena...These two group shots were taken on our last morning before heading back. It's me and Joe with my brother and family (my sister-in-law is taking the photos) and my dad and his wife, Joyce...
Besides escaping the office, housework, and everything else, silly me thought I would also escape all things adoption and rest my cluttered head for a while. Not a chance! I thought about Lauren constantly at the Disneyland parks and how our next trip would be with her. Then, when we got to Rocky Point and chilling on the beach, I had plenty of time to think about all my blogger friends and wondering what everyone was up to...I did miss catching up on my favorite blogs. I guess adoption is now just a part of us, even before we bring our little ones home, and we take it were ever we go.

Hey your husband stole my cheshire cat hat!!!

Maybe I'll just have to buy one and send it across bloggerland and have everyone pose with it.

You know, I'm not sure who pulls off pink better - me or him...hmmmmm????
