Colts/Chargers Playoff Game 2009

Since Merrials football team the Cowboys didn't make it to the playoffs and my awesome team the Broncos didn't either. Merrial was able to go to the Colts/Charger Playoff Game while we were in California over the holidays. He was on the 4th row and could spit on the players if he wanted to.

Merrial never smiles with his teeth showing, he must really be having a good time.

This is Merrial with my Uncle Christian.

Kacie my Aunt and Christian her husband are the ones that took Merrial to this awesome game.











When they bought the tickets, it said that there was a slight obstruction. But when they got there it was just the cheerleaders.

Disneyland 2009

It was very nice being able to spend New Years with my family down in California, where it was 70 degrees instead of negative. But now we all have colds which isn't very fun. We went to Disneyland on the 1st of January, which I don't recommend doing. It was so crowded you couldn't even turn around. I think that is the most crowded I have seen it in a long time. But it was still fun. It is a good thing we go to disneyland all the time because we didn't get to go on a lot of the rides.

Here is Brenden, his cousins Kendra and Connor.
We had just gone on soaring over California and Brooklyn didn't like it so she was mad in the stroller so that is why she isn't in the above picture.

This is the princess castle with all the pretty lights on it but it looks like it is kind of hard to see.

Watching the parade in the stroller. They were all tired by now and it was pretty cold. We didn't get a lot of pictures this time, which makes me sad because it was Addisons first time at disneyland. We will have to take some more this summer when we go.
