Birthday at Disneyland

We went down to Disneyland for my brother, Tomi's and My birthday. Matt, Kendra and their kiddos met up with us too! Here are some pictures from our Happy Disneyland day!

The kids trying on their hats that they wore to Disneyland...don't they look so excited?

1st ride: Finding Nemo. The kids were mesmerized by the things they saw under water.

Next: Autotopia! Emi drove and was one crazy driver!

Three princesses in front of Sleeping Beauty's castle.

Uncle Tomi spoiled the kids and got them sparkly Minnie Ears. Thank you Uncle Tomi!

Don't they look so cute with their Minnie Ears?

Emi took this picture of Grandpa all wiped out! Classic!

It was pretty hot there, so we cooled off by soaking our feet. Great idea Miya!

The two who made this trip happen...Thanks Mom and Bob!

Matt, Kendra and Keia in the Haunted Mansion.

Miya rode Splash Mountain for the 1st time and loved it! Here we are dry...

and here we are Wet!!!

Pictures I've been meaning to post

For the 4th of July, Matt, Kendra, and the kids came to Vegas to celebrate. Here are some pics from their stay.

Baba with grandkids doing sparklers.




Mason and Emi

As Miya would say, "We're so stylish!"

Mattix and Emi were too cute together. Emi kept treating Mattix like he was a baby. It was pretty silly since Mattix is bigger than Emi.

Our 6 year anniversary

Sunday was Mason and my 6 year anniversary. We celebrated by staying at Planet Hollywood Hotel here in Vegas. The hotel wasn't anything great, but we sure had a fun night together. After having kids I forgot how much I love just hanging out with my best friend. I am so grateful for my sexy husband and for the best 6 years of my life!

The LAST (scantily clad) post of Progress!

Well we stuck it out for the scheduled 5 months of clean eating and working out with occasional (very occasional) cheat days. We reached our goals and feel great. Erika steadily lost fat as she toned up her muscles and dropped from 118 to 108. Mason gained muscle and a bunch of fat going from 164 up to 176 only to cut down to 160.

It was a great goal to work on together and was very fun to be focused in and out of the gym for several months. Speaking of In-n-Out I hear a double-double calling my name...
