Hey Batter!

T-ball season has arrived! And you know what that means...

fast paced action!

All kidding aside, it has its moments...

We're really proud of Abbie, she plays very well and seems to really like her team. It's kind of difficult to tell from the Blogger resolution on the video, but the delay before she hit the ball was so she could chew her bubble gum a few more times before swinging.

Disneyland

Three Disneyland posts follow. Very little writing. Mostly pictures and some fun memories.

Princesses and Fairies were obviously a highlight.

The girls lit up as they met each character.

Definately Magical.

Disneyland

We were lucky enough to take a week long adventure with our girls. (Thank you G&G Stewart for loving our little men and enduring the awful illnesses. We couldn't have done it without you. We love you!)


Emma and Abbie took in Disneyland with wide eyes and grins every day. We loved walking around the park hand in hand with our little ladies. The park provides a happy adrenaline rush every morning as you walk through the gates. There's music playing, fresh flowers on the light posts and oddly happy employees wishing you a magical day. You can't help but feel a little giddy.

We loved the gigantic Ferris Wheel and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad was the top pick with our riders.

These girls loved everything about our really cool hotel, especially having their "own" room. Where they could stay up as late as they wanted. Our days were so long that they were usually asleep within just a few minutes. But just the idea of freedom is so good.

It was an awesome week long "date" with our girls.

We loved singing, swinging, dancing, ordering hot chocolate and cheesecake for dinner, laughing and giggling and just being together.

"Just the girls, just just the girls...and dad!!!"

California Girls

We planned a trip to Disneyland recently. Upon arrival, what do you suppose was the first thing we had to do? If you know Ben, it's obvious. GO TO THE BEACH.

We explored for little crabs and built sandcastles. It was beautiful and so much fun to be at the beach in March.

Ski Emma!

Emma got her shot at skiing today and picked it up right away. She showed great control, easily turning both right and left. A little more practice and she'll be able to stop too. She lasted about two hours before she tired of gravity's relentless attempts to stop our fun. Besides some awesome skiing, we also saw a Bald Eagle in the canyon; it was quite impressive.

Ski Abbie!

I took Abbie Skiing today and it turns out she's a natural. Just point the skis down hill and go. If only the stopping part were so easy... Anyway, she lasted two whole hours on the mountain before enough was enough. In the end I think I was more tired than she from trying to be right in place to prevent a few of the falls. We had a great time together - it makes me wonder why I don't get around to doing more fun things more often.
