The Big Fresno Fair

Carson trying to milk the cow (not real of course)

Everyone getting in on the action

Carson just loved hearing the turkey make its call, he couldn't stop laughing.

Say Moo

We decided one afternoon to head off to the Big Fresno Fair to see the exhibits and just walk around.  We never really go on the rides, just walk around and take it all in.  We did indulge in a cinnamon roll and it was sooo good.

Happy Birthday Bubba

We celebrated Carson's 4th birthday by going out to pizza with some friends and family.  He wanted a ghost birthday in September so I did my best to make sure he had some ghost cupcakes.  We had a good time visiting with each other and enjoying all of our friends and family.  Carson had a Hot Wheels birthday and got a lot of different Hot Wheels tracks that he loves.  It was a bittersweet birthday.  My little boy is getting so big and grown up.  It was the first birthday we celebrated without Daddy here with us.  It was real hard to get through without thinking of him and how much he would have wanted to be there to wish him a Happy Birthday.  Love you Carson Anthony, can't wait to see what being 4 will bring for you.

Disneyland

What was I thinking, a King size is definately not big enough for all of us, but we managed.  I needed my babies close anyways.

Madison was so happy to get to dance in the dance party with Pheneas and Ferb

Carson is finally big enough for soaring over California

Just love this picture of Lisa and Morgan

Jack has always been in love with his Emma.  I love this picture.  It is truly precious.

Look at Madison's face, priceless

waiting for Small World

Lucky boy, look at those callicks

Carson was so happy to get to finally ride the monorail.

It isn't a trip to Disneyland without a trip to build a bear.  Carson picked an alligator

Surprise Surprise Madison picked Hello Kitty

We took the shuttle from the hotel to the park, much better than driving

Carson can't go anywhere without his Sheepy

We needed to get away after Scott's funeral so the whole family packed up and headed for Disneyland.  It was nice to get away, but so difficult emotionally.  I saw my husband everywhere we went, all his favorite eating places reminded me of him, his favorite treats to eat were enjoyed without him.  It was all so difficult but worth it to see the kids laughing and having fun.  One of the sweetest moments was when Grandpa took Madi on the rockets.  Scott and I loved to get in the rockets with the kids.  They enjoyed chasing each other.  It was so nice of everyone to be able to help me and be there to support me.  It is a trip I will never forget, it was our first one without our Scotty.  I know it won't be the last.  We loved Disneyland and I will make sure that his kids knew how much he loved it there.  Can't wait to go back again in the summer.
