Pajaro Dunes Vacay

I go through spurts of blogging because my life is a little too hectic.  So today I'm going to try and get a few out.
My latest excuse for not blogging is moving.  First it's packing, then moving, then unpacking.  Plus we didn't have the internet for a week.  I should do a secondary post about Comcast; boy I hate them!!!!!  We still don't have TV and who knows when we will.

ANYWAYS....

It seems like many moons ago we had our second annual trip to Pajaro Dunes. It was a week of much needed relaxation. (Now that I'm writing this I need this relaxation again!)  We played games, walked on the beach, collected sand dollars, and enjoyed yummy food.  We also went to The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk.  Em got to go on a few more rides this year and she loved them. This girl has no fear. Thanks Voa Voa for such a fun week!











































This is what happens when you let a 21 month old dress herself!



Build A Bear

Emily's Uncle Mike got her a Build A Bear gift certificate for Christmas.  I'm sad to say we just got there a couple of weeks ago.  Emily had a great time bringing her bear to life and dressing her up.  Emily even dressed herself up.  The glasses for the bears fit her perfectly.  She went home with two pair for herself; funny girl!  Thanks Uncle Mike for such a great gift.  Emily loves her bear Grace.



















Circus Circus

The tradition continues and today we went to the circus.  Kevin's grandma has been taking him for 26 years and now Emily for 2 years.  Before the show started we went to the ground floor to see the clowns, gets tattoos, and watch the Elephants paint.  Em was on stimulation overload.  Once we got to our seats she was so excited.  She clapped, yelled "yay," and smiled most of the time.  She also changed laps a thousand times:)
The circus is always fun and we look forward to it every year but this year they changed the format and acts and we weren't as impressed as usual.
Nevertheless, it was a fun day!  Thanks Mom Mom for taking us.
