I know this is long overdue. We went to Disneyland back in June and here are some of our pictures.

It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Ah can you smell it in the air? It's back to school time again hooray! Okay so Shyanne doesn't start for another month, but I'm so excited because then she won't be telling me that she's bored. Poor thing. I'm sure she'll love her new teacher and look forward to meeting new friends and learning new things!

The Huntington

These are what the houses looked like on the property and yes I did say houses.

The perpetrator a.k.a. The Stinky Plant

On our trip to California and Disneyland earlier this month Nathan wanted to show us the beautiful gardens they have at The Huntington. All I can say is that this place is amazing! They have different themed gardens throughout the property and we didn't even get to see them all. They also have an awesome collection of artwork, books,etc. One of the houses that we went into had info and pictures about science, which Shyanne loved, the human body and light. In the science exhibit they have a telescope similar to the one that Galileo used which was pretty cool to get an idea of what he would've seen. On the property they also have a conservatory which houses exotic plants, etc. They have this one special plant in particular that I believe is called the stinky plant and for good reason. When it blooms it gives off a scent similar to that of rotting meat- good thing we weren't there when it bloomed! It was a big deal and they had people there from the history channel to cover it. I don't think that we were able to see half of the things that we there, but hopefully the next time we go back to California we can stop by again!

Love This!!!

Sedona

Daddy and Shyanne at Sunset rest point- beautiful view!

I forget just how pretty the red rocks of Sedona really are.

We found this cute little cafe w/ really cheap prices :)

On our hike in Oak Creek Canyon

Since Nathan couldn't get our anniversary weekend off we decided to take a short trip to Sedona instead. We drove up Friday afternoon and came home Sat. Here are some of the pics we took.

Happy Anniversary!

Today I've been married to my best friend for 6 yrs. I can't believe how fast the time has flown by! These years have definitely had their challenges and struggles, but through them we've come out stronger and so has our love for one another. I am so thankful that Nathan is such a good husband and father he loves taking Shyanne on hikes, going to fly kites, etc. It also helps that she's old enough to enjoy these things too ;) I love you and am excited for what the coming years will bring!

Take Me Out to the Ball Game...

Checking out the game.

Cheering for the Diamondbacks.

This girl loves cotton candy!

Cheese!

As part of my Mother's Day present Nathan got tickets from work to go to the Diamondbacks game. We were so excited because it's our first one of the season and it was Shyanne's first time going. Do you think she liked it?
