Great and Great Great Grandma's

After lunch with the girls and the park,

we went to my great grandma's house to see her

and my grandma. They had never met Nina before.

This would be a 5 generation photo,

but my mom, of course, couldn't be there.

Vacation So Far

Hey Everyone! I am writing this from our hotel in Eureka, CA!

We've had a long journey already, and we've barely started!

We got to Portland, OR on Wednesday night and then

this morning we started our trek south...with a stop in Roseburg, OR.

Here I am with my good friend JoJo and her son..isn't he cute?!

We met up at McD's to let Nina and JoJo's kids play.

Tim waiting for Nina to come down so we can go.

Nina WAY into Elmo's Potty Time movie...LOL

YIPPEE!!!

First beach we saw on the California side...was GORGEOUS there!

Cold/windy...But GORGEOUS!

Paul Bunyun and Babe the Big Blue Ox
I have a great story about this but it'll have to wait!

Tim and Nina sitting on Paul's foot

Then it was off to the Redwood National Park for us.
HUGE trees! Seriously! I couldn't imagine seeing one fall!

I couldn't believe how big this was!

Don't we both look so happy here?! LOL

Now we're in Eureka, CA at a Red Lion..Its beautiful.
Tomorrow its off to Santa Clara/San Francisco, CA! YAY!

Hopefully post some stuff tomorrow evening from our room

at the Hyatt Regency...Oooo...Sounds Expensive...LOL

Wish us luck on the 6 hour drive tomorrow...

she's already bored of the movies we brought...GREAT!

The County Fair with Pops/Josh

Nina calls my dad "Josh" (supposed to be Pops)...

that's just how she pronounced it when she first started talking.

Anyways, we decided to take her to the fair again

and she decided she wanted to ride the "roller coasters".

I didn't think she'd like them...but I was wrong!

She also went on the merry-go-round with Josh

and went on the balloon ride that she went on the other night.

We also had an elephant ear, but my battery ran out...so no pictures *sad*!

She "thinks" the rides are too loud.

Buckled in, ready to roll!

Her face is PRICELESS...but she didn't cry!

She was giggling SO much!

She only screamed because the other girls did.

She loves the Merry-go-round!

"HI MOM!!!"
(She yelled that every time it went round)

Here's the second coaster...it went faster than the first.
And this time she was alone.

She wasn't 100% thrilled...

Waiting in line for the balloon ride.

I think I was in her line of view of a boy...

Hold on Baby!

Weeeeeeeeeeee! She loves this ride!

"HI MOM!!!"
