Napa Trip

I am quite behind on posting. I do have a good reason. We were in Napa, visiting Ryan's family for one week at the beginning of the month and came home for just a few days and then went and visited my family for a few days. It's been a very fun month for us because of these trips. It's been really nice for Addy to get to meet all her relatives, now that she's a little older and actually aware of what's going on a bit more. Our trip to Napa was a lot of fun. Some of the highlights of the trip were:

Celebrating our 3rd anniversary, (which I already posted about) celebrating the 4th of July/July b-days with Ryan's family, going to Target on the 4th with the girls in the family minus all the kids, (doesn't sound too exciting, but we had a great time!) eating at some very delicious restaurants, Addy getting to hang out with her cousins and go swimming, going shopping at Gap outlet with Carla and going to Vacaville to eat a delicious dinner that Ryan's sister Kristen made for us. There will be lots of pictures included below. I especially enjoy the pictures of Addy, Riley and Max. They are all pretty close in age and it was quite the ordeal to get the three of them together for a picture. I don't think I got any where all of them are looking at the camera, but they are still quite precious! Also thanks Kelly, because many of these pictures were taken by you and they turned out much better than mine did!

This was one of many attempts to get a picture of all the grandkids together. I think this was a silly face picture, but not everyone heard or wanted to join in the fun!

Addy was done with picture taking and I'm pretty sure Kirra was too, but she still looks all cute in her hat.



This is Addy after sunscreen was applied to her scalp.

I enjoy this picture because it showcases the rolls very well!

Very cute picture of Mardel with Addy and no we're not trying to raise a trashy daughter, that swimming suit refuses to stay on her shoulders.

Baby Riley A.K.A The quietest and sweetest baby ever!

Such a cute pic. of lil' miss Payten

Ryan's sister, Juli and I were trying to do a hand comparison of Addy and Max's hands. They didn't enjoy it so much! Max's hand is the right and Addy's is the left.

I wasn't actually present for the paintball gun action, but I heard that everyone (even Mardel!) had a good time with it.

I think it's so funny how in each of these pictures of the babies, Max is so happy and the girls are just wondering what in the world is going on!

Such a cute picture of Max and Addy

Carter and Payten are so funny together, they are happy most of the time but sometimes argue like "an old married couple" (in Ryan's words.)
