Pumpkin Picking (Without the Pumpkins)

We took Jackson and Landen to this cute little pumpkin patch/farm in Gilbert called Vertuccio Farms this year. Jackson had a blast on the "momo" (train) and checking out all of the cute animals in the petting zoo. But his absolute favorite thing was the bounce house (which I definitely plan on renting for his birthday party this year!). Unfortunately I'm such an airhead that I forgot to get some pictures with the pumpkins the boys picked out!

Hawaii!

Waiting for our flight. Did I tell you that I ended up taking Jackson on the flight by myself? Ryan wasn't able to get on, so it was me all by myself and Jackson was GREAT!

Pirate Landen

Beach Baby (while it lasted)

Coloring at dinner.

Landen trying to teach Jackson how to swim.

Climbing the banyan tree.

We never get pictures together, so I was happy this one came out ok.

Landen paddle boarding for the first time!

Checking out the goats at Surfing Goat Dairy Farm.

Well I have to say this year's trip to Hawaii was MUCH better than last year's. The difference between taking a nine-week old baby and a 21-month old toddler on a trip is huge! Jackson is so incredibly fun now and we had a blast! The funny thing is that he hated the beach, which he absolutely loves when we go to San Diego. I think it was because the waves were so much bigger. Oh well, he absolutely loved the pool area with it's huge pirate ship and lagoon so it made up for our lack of beach time. For the most part we just chilled while we were there since we've done so many of the touristy things already. We did make time to take Jackson and Landen to their first luau (well Jackson's second, but the first one doesn't really count), take them up to the Surfing Goat Dairy, and hang out under the banyan tree in Lahina. And I'm STILL not done editing the pictures. Hopefully I'll get around to posting more!

Wayyyy Behind

WHOA! I am way behind on this whole blogging thing. Sometimes I get really motivated to keep everything updated, and then other days I'd just rather read other people's blogs. Definitely need to do a face-lift around here and update some pictures. Since I've been neglecting this for so long lots of exciting things have happened. Can't share yet, but I have some VERY big news that I can't wait to share! Also have tons and tons of pictures from Hawaii, Halloween, and lots of randomness. Hopefully I'll get my butt in gear and start posting them soon!

Bon Voyage!

Tomorrow we're off to Hawaii! The last time we went Jackson was only 9 weeks old and things were a LOT different. Can't say it was the best vacation of my life. This time I plan on having a blast, no matter what. Now that Jackson is mobile and talking, he's a lot more fun to interact with and I love seeing the world through his eyes. The only thing that makes me really nervous is the dreaded plane ride. I'm double-crossing my fingers that all of the snacks, toys, DVDs, and books I brought will keep him occupied for the six-hour trip. Pray for me! We'll survive no matter what and I can't wait to throw on our swimsuits and head to the beach!!
