Big Boy Bed for Ryan!!

We decided that Ryan was old enough to graduated to a big boy bed after we got back from Disneyland. We decided on a full size bed for him since he's so tall and we figured he'd grow into it in no time.

Before dismantling his old room I decided to take a quick picture of the way it looked. Notice the crib tent on his bed. He's been climbing out of the crib ever since he learned to walk so we got a crib tent to keep him safe (and to protect our sanity!!)....





Got a quick pic of Jenna in the crib...which was hers when she was a baby!



Getting ready to tear it down (the new bed is already set up at this point!)










Ryan sleeping in his new BIG BOY BED!!




Let the sleepovers begin!!

Pismo with the Hopkins Family!

The wonderful Hopkins Family invited us to spend the weekend with them at their house at Pismo. We had a FABULOUS time playing on the beach, making smores, watching movies, going out to eat, and just having fun with good friends. Here are some pictures from the trip.
