Sacramento Zoo

We took the kids to the Sacramento Zoo for the first time yesterday and they loved it! The weather was gorgeous and there were barely any people there. It was the best time! Grandma and Grandpa Moreau were able to join us and afterwards we went to lunch at the Old Spaghetti Factory. It was a great day. I am looking forward to many more trips to the zoo.

Father Daughter Dance

Ryan and Emma attended the Father/Daughter Dance hosted by our church again this year. It was held at the Atlantis Hotel & Casino and they had a blast. Emma talked about the "daddy-daughter" dance for weeks leading up to this and was so excited for the night. She let me curl her hair, paint her nails, and put on some make up. She looked great.

While Ryan and Emma were on their "date", Noah, Ryleigh and I headed to dinner at Jimmy John's (Noah's choice) and then to Barnes and Nobel to pick out some books and play. Noah enjoyed riding the escalator and playing with the train table. We had a fun night together and enjoyed the "dates" with our kiddos.

Valentine's Day 2012

Every year for Valentine's Day we buy the kiddos a book and I make them a shirt. This year we also bought Noah and Emma new underwear. We spent the day running errands and hanging out as a family. We went to Whole Foods so Ryan could buy me some non-diary cream cheese and ice cream. We had lunch there and then headed home for naps. We cooked a nice steak dinner at home and Ryan and Noah made me a dairy free cheese cake. After a few photos and a bath, we let the kids open their presents. Afterwards, we watched part of a movie and then all went to bed. It was such a nice relaxing day and night spent with my little family.

Our 3 Valentines!

Christmas 2011

Christmas Day was very busy for us. We woke up and had the kids open their presents from Santa, Ryan and I, and each other. Then we headed to my dad's for breakfast and more present opening. After spending time with my dad, Patty and sisters, we then headed to my mom's to open even more presents! It was a lot of fun to see the kids faces this year! After going back to Grandma and Grandpa Moreau's house for lunch, a visit from Eric and Ashley (with more presents), we took naps and headed back to my dad's house for a family dinner and presents! It was a long day but I am so glad we got to spend it with all of our families!
