Friday Daydreamin'


I'm linking up again today with my girl Becca. Just in case you're unaware {believe it or not there are still a few of you} she is the creator of both The Texas Darlings and R We There Yet Mom?  


Friday Daydreamin' is a great way for me to look through old vacation pictures and go back in time. I love reliving the past...most of the time.


Five years ago we took a 2+ week vacation through California with a 2 day stay in the Grand Canyon. Babe had planned a day trip for us, it started with a helicopter ride into the basin of the Canyon, a small prop plane from point A to point B, a visit at an Indian reservation and a boat trip down the river. It was so sweet of him to go to such lengths to make sure his girls saw all they could while there but sadly the only thing Peanut saw was the inside of a white barf-bag. While her sister sat in the front of the helicopter taking video of the beautiful scenery Peanut clung to me heaving with all that she had. All. Day. Long. The genuine look of horror on her little face when she realized in order to get back to the hotel she would have to get back on the boat, the prop plane and finally the helicopter was heart breaking. It was so sad that Babe tried to pay the helicopter pilot to fly us all the way back, it was not an option.



I love how innocent she looks in this picture and her one dimple is just too adorable! 


I glad I get to do this every week, my favorite vacation picture changes each time I look through them. What about you, what's your favorite vacation picture...today? Go find it and then link up with Becca.

Eeek, helicopters :) Rode one in Hawaii & heaved. Whether that was because I was unknowingly pregnant or not, I don't know, but I doubt I'll ever get back in one :) Poor peanut!
