Fishing Trip in Hurricane

We took a trip up to Hurricane to visit May and Grandpa and go fishing! Caught five Rainbow Trout and we even ate them! The kids really enjoyed fishing and the weather was beautiful - we will be back!

Merzey Update

Well, we still have a dog... Merzey is crazy and full of energy and sometimes fun to play with... We are working on being more consistent with her and I hope we can get her to stop jumping and "herding" us - those Terrier traits are tough and stubborn. She's a pretty dog though, and she is smart - too smart. I'm looking into some training options for her - hopefully the puppy phase doesn't break us. She will be one year old on April 4th.

Disneyland 2020

The past three years, we have gone to Disneyland the week before MLK Day and it's a great time to go! We had wonderful weather and light crowds, until Friday, as usual. But this time Friday was going to be very busy with a new Star Wars ride opening at Disneyland, so we went to CA Adventure that day instead. I think long lines take all the fun out of it, and we just didn't want to be with the crowds.

I had two shirts made for everyone this year -a  Golden Knights plus Micky, and a LOVE in "almost" sign language. Almost because the E wasn't accurate.

Henry could go on just about every ride though we didn't take him on the roller coasters. He did go on Guardians of the Galaxy. He said, "Mom, I didn't cry, but I do NOT want to go on that again." He was a little timid for a bit after that but he loved Big Thunder Mountain, Pirates and Haunted Mansion the best.

The new Star Wars land - aka Galaxy's Edge - was AMAZING and so detailed! We loved it! I just wanted to hang out there.

Merry Christmas! Hiller Card This Year

Family Photos 2019

We took our photos out at the Wetlands Park in Henderson - so pretty at this time of year, with amazing afternoon light. It can be so stressful getting everyone out for photos but it is worth it every time.

Somewhere Over the Rainbow

I have a feeling our days with a family themed Halloween costume may be numbered... but we sure had fun this year with a classic, The Wizard of Oz. We even recruited a flying monkey and the wizard to join us at the Trunk or Treat. I used to sew so many of the costumes, but now, it's Amazon and a little homemade help, if I need to give the store bought costume a boost. I thought Matt stole the show with his Cowardly Lion (he did his own makeup!).
