California

The best part first! We went out to California to see my best friend Sherri and her family. She just had baby Beckett at the beginning of September, so Nathan and I thought we would go help her. It was such a great trip. I think Nathan's favorite part was meeting Mickey Mouse ( you can tell by the smile on my face that I really enjoyed it too).
Nathan got to give Mickey a "high five" and he leaned in to give Mickey a kiss, but Mickey leaned in too, and it scared Nathan.
Mickey, Keane, Dan Sherri and Beckett. Keane loves "dog dog" (it's what he calls Mickey Mouse, because of the "hot dog" song on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

Riding the Heimlich ride.
Riding the ants ride in California Adventure.
In the tea cups
Riding "it's a small world". We rode the "Pirates of the Caribbean" and it scared Nathan, he rode the ride with his hand over his eyes and burro-ed into my chest. Eventually he fell asleep like that. When we rode "Small World" he thought it was going to be the same, so he rode half the ride with his hands over his eyes.
Dinner with Gina at Ruby's. I love Ruby's almost as much as In-N-Out, better shakes at Ruby's though.

At the beach...

Nathan didn't like the ocean...
But he loved playing in the sand.




We had such a fun trip. Keane and Nathan had a lot of fun playing together (not in the mornings though). They did as good as two toddlers can be expected to be. I wish David could have gone with us, but that will just give us an excuse to go back again soon.
