Apple Hill time!

We had a great Monday celebrating Columbus day at Apple Hill. We went with some great friends and had a blast. The apple doughnuts are so good! Since they are made with apples, they are part of a balanced breakfast, lunch...dinner...right?! :)

We always enjoy Double Chocolate Nut Fudge from the Fudge Factory too.

There are huge fish that swim in the pond. They were jumping while we were there. It was amazing to watch them leap.

Maybe next year Aubrey will get to ride a pony...

San Francisco

Here are some fun pics of our trip to SF. We stayed 3 days the first week and then a whole week a couple days later. Ryan spent his days in training and meetings while I got to walk around with Aubrey and hang out in the hotels. Then we went to Pier 39, Chinatown and walked around together. Lots of fun!

We're back!

Hi everyone,
We got back a few days ago from a wonderful 8 day trip to San Francisco. It was spread out over two weeks. We had a blast. But, it is good to be home. More pics from that trip soon.
Here are a few in the meantime...here are some pics from our trip to Grandma and Grandpas last month. It was quite the roadtrip. Aubrey got to spend more time with her cousin Lily too. They are so cute playing together.

Giggles

Aubrey and I have just discovered that she loves Peekaboo. We've been waiting for her to start laughing. What a great sound!

Reading books with Mommy (and earplugs)

Okay, so I was reading Aubrey a book on her blanket and she showed her enthusiasim!



At least we know her lungs work well. :)










Later she attacked the remote control...with her cuteness.
















Oh the Humanity!

Drumming with Daddy

It is so cute when Ryan practices his drumming with Aubrey! These are pics from a few days ago.
















I think the flash was a little bright...
































From a couple weeks ago:

Wii Weekend

We had a great visit with Aunt Kathy, Sofie and Ellie yesterday. Diana was watching Gary's dog Emma at his house and we went to enjoy some time and have dinner.

Ryan wore Aubrey in her "Moby Wrap" for most of the evening. She got a great nap as she gets really quiet and basically goes into a trance before falling asleep. The wrap also distributes weight so that arms and shoulders don't get sore. We really like it!



















































Ryan and I got to play Wii for the first time. It is pretty fun. Just tough to get used to as I am an old-school nintendo gal!

Sofie trying a new way of taking pictures on me:



Dinner was fantastic (Grilled Chicken, Coconut Shrimp from Costco, Dutch crust bread with salad and strawberry/blueberry shortcake for dessert). I'll have to take more pics as I get used to the fun of blogging!
Come back and visit again soon Aunt Kathy and girls!
