Thanksgiving and Beyond.

I know this is a little late..but here are some pictures from Thanksgiving and things..

 My cute niece :)

Poor Paul was sick almost the whole time but was a good sport.

Cute nephew! He loved Paul.

New favorite snack: peanut butter and Ritz.

One day Paul only had to go to work for half a day so we played basketball when he got home. In our apartment.

Yes, there is tape on the floor outlining our basketball court. This is Paul's new favorite toy. He practices his basketball almost every day. It's cute :)

We kicked off the Christmas season with hot chocolate and watching the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting.

Paul has started studying for the CPA exam. He gets up early ever morning to study and it will begin taking up our weekends very soon I'm sure. He will be working on this sucker for the next year. Boo.

Thoughts on Paul's beard?

Luv, Lindsay

While in California we stayed at a beautiful home that Paul's parents are taking care of. The family that owns the house is on an international assignment so it worked out perfectly since Paul's parents are serving a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in this area. It's a beautiful home on some beautiful property, as you can see.

Me and my adorable golfer. He went and played at least three times while we were out there and I'm glad he had fun. He looks so great in his golfing gear.

So while the guys had their golfing time, the girls had some fun shopping time at the outlets.

We also had some time to visit the San Diego Temple.

Aren't they cute? Lora, Seth, and I married into such a good-looking family.

After the temple we had some swimming time and a BBQ.

Baby Aaron (as Jayda calls him) is so adorable. And falls asleep so fast.

The next two pictures were taken within 20 seconds of each other.

The original Knights:

We had so much fun with everyone. Almost every night we played cards.

Our favorite games? The Great Dalmuti and Euchre. 

There were some ridiculous games and I have never seen anyone laugh so hard in my entire life. Things get funny when people aren't quite paying attention and cards get dealt a certain way.

I used to hate playing Euchre. It's okay now :)

Look at these next few pictures..

How cute of a dad is he going to be someday?

He's such a good cute baby.

And here's my cute baby..he loves to sleep almost as much as Baby Aaron!

Love this little girly. 

New Fossil wallet - thanks to my sweet mother-in-law!

Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end and we finally had to head back to LAX and fly home. To pass the time in-between our flights we went to Chili's. Have you ever had their blackberry lemonade? It's pretty incredible.

Paul colored a pepper for me:

How cute is he?

He got to meet this UFC guy, Rashad Evans, at the airport and was pretty excited. It only took him 20 minutes to ask for a picture.

Our California trip was absolutely a success. Now we're waiting for real life to start September 12.

Luv, Lindsay and Paul

Does anyone else remember having this toy when they were little?

It was one of my favorites and I had some fun with Jayda.

More Tangled!

This was a magical day.

This was the day that I finally got to spend time with my favorite person at one of my favorite places..DISNEY! Oh..it was magical.

Disney has some of the best root beer floats and ice cream. Amazing.

Love this ride :) Love this boy!

Indiana Jones line..

I've never really eaten a sit-down meal at Disneyland before (no money!) but we did this time at a cute little French restaurant in Frontier Land (I think..) and it was quite delicious!

Remember how I hadn't ever ridden a Ferris Wheel before this trip? Well I got to ride on two..

I love Ferris Wheels!

I love Cars..Pixar anything is so great. And Cars Land is so adorable.

It seriously looks just like the movie.

I also went on the Finding Nemo ride for the first time.

I can't believe how much detail they have under there!

We had to take the picture that everyone takes in front of the flowers..

Cute siblings :)

Everyone was EXHAUSTED by the end but I had so much fun.

Paul loved it too. He wants to plan a trip to Disney World now.

There is nothing quite like a trip to Disney with your love :)

The next day we slept in a bit and then all headed out to go Kayaking at La Jolla.

It was amazing! A little overcast and not the warmest, but still great. Just the young couples went.

We saw fish and sea lions and leopard sharks and got a good workout! Martha almost drowned and Paul and I managed to stay in the kayak the entire time. We were going through caves and I got to see a little baby sea lion - so cute!

Luv, Lindsay and Paul
