Quack Quack

May 19, 2011

On Thursdays Gavin and I have a standing play date with one of my girlfriends and her daughter.  On this particular day we decided to go to the duck pond of the Air Force Base.  Gavin had TONS of fun feeding the quack quacks.  The weather was gorgeous (which for some reason at this time of year has been very rare).  We had a wonderful time and enjoyed great company.

 There was quite a few people at the pond on this day so let me just say these guys DO NOT go hungry.

 I kept having to tell him to rip off smaller pieces because he wanted to throw a whole roll in.

Such a handsome little man! 

This one was getting a little too close. 

Gavin and Lily...too cute for words.

We love to paint....and paint....and paint

We found a wonderful pottery place in Vacaville. It is extremely kid friendly and just a great atmosphere. Tons of different pottery pieces to choose from, paint, stencils and lots of great ideas.  Perfect place to take the kids and let them paint until their little hearts are content.

 Dallas absolutely LOVES to color and paint...this will definitely be a great place for us to have a mom and daughter date!

Gavin decided to take a lunch break...another great thing about this place is that they let you bring food and drink in with you. 

Six Flags with the BFF....and lots of little people ;)

My best friend Traci had planned to take her little ones to Six Flags with her Dad and we decided to tag along with her for the day.  We had gorgeous weather and GREAT company! I am pretty sure a fun day was had by ALL!

Kids had a great time at the shows.  We started with the whale show!

SHOUKA!

Nimbus Fish Hatchery

April 27, 2011

Over spring break we went on a field trip with Dallas' girl scout group.  The adventure was to the Nimbus Fish Hatchery.  The kids learned all sorts of different facts and got to feed the fish (which was the favorite part).

 Mesmerized by what the ranger is saying

 Part of the troop

 Gav decided he wanted to go check things out on his own

 Here fishy fishy....where's my pole at?

 Checking out the fish!

Definitely Dallas' favorite part was feeding the fish and seeing how close she could get her fingers to the water without the fish touching them.

EASTER

We spent the morning at Church and then headed up the hill to Mountain Ranch for a wonderful day of FUN!

Dallas and TeTe fighting over eggs 

 Examining the loot

I GOT ONE!!! 

He is a CRAZY driver...almost ran me over! 

It was really funny to see Dallas cram herself into the barbie car that no longer fits her....and to top it off Gavin wanted to pull her around cause her battery was dead. 

Terry decided he wanted a turn to go down the hill....Erica was all too willing to help him and give him a little push along with Dallas' help.... 

I WISH this picture had sound ;)

CAN WE FIX IT?
