2 weeker

So i guess i'm on the 2 week update schedule now.  weird that i have more time but blog less..haha

this is a serious photo dump as lots of fun things have been going on. MOST importantly a visit from jami and her family last week.

Man, why don't we all live closer together?

Between disneyland (the babies first time) the beach, Bea Bea's for breakfast, the americana and hanging out in the sun, we had so much fun and miss them a lot.

Penny is in love with Zach and Kate charmed and played with everyone, including lots of rounds of speed with owen.  they both got really fast. (the card game, obviously :)

other notable things, brett got me into THE WALKING DEAD.  Since i had sick kids and doug was working all week, i watched 19 episodes in like 4 days. 2 of those nights i was up until 2:30 watching episodes on my phone. so many zombies.  so much gore!! I should hate this show but i am obsessed.  i have a serious crush on the main guy but all the characters are so good. i felt like when you get really great novel and you can't move on with my life until you get to the end.  hahahaha.

now i want to catch up doug and start season 3 together.

also, if you're on instagram, look up Target Does It Again (but as all one word) and you'll see two really cute girls trying on great stuff from target.  it's AWESOME. So many great ideas! they have a tumblr as well.

and lastly... since the cars land fast passes were gone before we even made it through the entrance gate, we are now disneyland season pass holders.  CALL US if you are headed to D-land (M-F).  we need to make good use of these way too expensive tickets.  plus, simon thinks he and buzz light year were shooting guns for real.  he's dying to go back.

holla!!  this dude is british.  his southern accent is insane

simon and penny had the same valentine this year.  as seen on pinterest.
