Children of the 90's

I woke up this morning and immediately decided this picture needed to be scanned:
.
I was thinking of my mom (Happy Mother's day!!) and how magical my childhood felt, and it reminded me of this dreamy picture.

So I scanned it...and then 20 others. I can't stop! SOS! There are other life events I need to blog but don't have time to lately, yet here I am blogging old pictures.
 Ryan's favorite picture - not sure if it's the Chinese get up or the bunny teeth.

I'll resist the burning urge to ramble on how much I love pictures and the memories they bring back - which I know is just normal and trendy now - but it's always been my only "thing." I could just look through pictures forever.

To blog

I keep a list on my phone of "to blog" moments and noticed it's getting a little too long. Long enough that they were each going to be their own post, but now here is one big somewhat condensed but still typically too long post!

Bri and I did a day in LA together before a friend's birthday party in Culver that night. I was itching to do some site seeing since I'm up there every day all day but only see the WB lot! We spent the day at LACMA and checked out the venice canals.

 Our favorite part was the art center which was most definitely for children, but we loved nonetheless:

We had a great Easter weekend with the Uhlers! They came down for some easter egg dying and some cloudy beach time.

A couple of weekends ago we spent the morning with the Murphys at the Beachcomber in Newport. We were just a titch disappointed in the lunch since the plan was for breakfast (by the time we were seated breakfast hours were over, sniff sniff) so we comforted ourselves at Ruby's shake shack. Yum. 
These two...lesbian lovers.

We've been getting the usual Disneyland time in but the busy season is upon us, sigh. The Fantasy Faire is open now and is super cute!
Love this picture of my Rynan!

My friend Megan from Utah State came to the show last week! It was such a treat to see my twinner.

And last but not least, I'm happy to announce these luscious locks (facial and head...) are no longer with us:
It's not so much the long hair that I didn't love as it was the ponytails (and bows...?) that come whenever it gets in his face. May the bun rest in peace forever.

THE END!
