~ Disney Pics ~

Here are just a few pictures, the rest I have to get off John's computer. We downloaded them on Sunday night so Kennedy could take the card home, that way she had them too.

This is how these girls walked around 90% of the time. It was pretty adorable. They get along great, you would never know they missed about 6 years together.  Kennedy is a little quieter and super sweet, and for whatever reason brings out the goofy side of Hailey. She was dancing and being an oddball, she reminded me of John. LoL  It was fun to watch. We had an amazing, relaxing 5 days with the girls. We miss Kennedy already.

 Tower of Terror - They rode this about 4 times but the girls wanted John with them.  They rode it once by themselves and got a little freaked out. They had added just a couple more oddball things due to Halloween. So we tried to avoid anything that would cause sleepless nights!

 The girls and Pooh Bear

 In line for Indiana Jones, which we rode probably close to 7 times. No lines at all, maybe 15 minutes for the bigger rides.

 This was the longest ride we stood in, 40 minutes. Then we Fast Passed it and once we got in line after they started up the ride again, so we got in 3 times. It is a lot of fun.

 

Okay I will try and get more pics off the computer and get them posted in the next few days. Time to go sit on the couch, we got home around 9:30 pm last night. We are all a bit tired after getting up for school and work.

Disney Day

What a great first day!
These girls are so much alike...you would think they had spent everyday together for the past 16 years. The crowd was so small today. We walked on all the rides but one.  We rode our favorites twice. 
We are looking forward to a full and fun weekend.
So far this is my most favorite picture...arm in arm...bags that Auntie Autumn got them..even their shoes ended up being the same.
Loved today...looking forward to tomorrow. Love and miss you all. My service in the parks is horrible, but I will try and keep you all updated. 

~ September Already? ~

I know most of you keep up with us on Instagram, but this has been one crazy summer and here it is already September. Can you believe it? She's a JR already? Sheesh!
I can't believe how bad I have been about blogging.
Now it's Disneyland, camping, clamming and hopefully some snow this year.
How about these thunderstorms? Unbelievable!
I can't seem to think of anything else terribly exciting going on, Hailey's room is getting re-done but I won't post pictures until it's finished...her chandelier should arrive today.
Bedding is next, along with curtains then we should be good to go. Last room Mom and Dad will ever buy her, Dad says she needs a job. LoL But I love it, she can stay with us forever. :-)
We have spent 2 nights so far in our new travel trailer, yes in the driveway. LoL We can't wait to go camping, shotgun weekend in October to kick off clamming.  I am adding a new duvet cover to our bed and foam on Hailey's bunks...as well as valances...All in the material from my house. I love those pheasants!! LoL
Time to go and finish dinner...John is golfing so it's a "girls night" at the Eldridge home tonight!
Have a fabulous weekend everyone!

~ Chelan ~

I have lived in WA my entire life (well, minus I think the first 2 years) so why have I not been to this little "gem" of a town!? Crazy!
We loved it, the motel (cleanest motel ever) the restaurants, the wineries (only hit 2), the lake itself, and of course the friends we went with.
Here are some pictures from our weekend:

 We only had it on Hailey's ipod...LoL  What I loved about this trip was taking the girls, Alaina is graduated, Hailey is 16, and Cait is coming up fast behind them. It was so fun to create memories with them. They are so much fun at these ages. They came to all the wineries and drank soda and ate amazing food. I felt like we did a bit for everyone on this weekend trip.

 The girls snuggling

 At Karma vineyards...this is the champagne flight...loved it.  (There's barely room for me AND the guns in this picture) :-)  And the only shirt he wore with sleeves all weekend was on the golf course. LoL Gotta love that man!

 Dinner at The Bakery - amazing!

 Group photo, sans the photographer

 Johnny rented a jetski for the day

 Joe rented a boat

 It was a great day on the water!!! We all had a great time.

 Tubing, water skiing and wake boarding!

 The girls take over the jetski

Best thing about this mini vacation - we found another family we vacation great with....here's to many more in the years to come.  

We will be going back next Summer....we loved it. Until next year!
