Daddy's Little Helper

We decided one Saturday afternoon to tackle Mommy's "honey do" list. On the top of that list was to finish off the edging of bricks around our apple trees in the front yard. McCoy was more than excited to help out.
He was suprisingly helpful when it came to guarding the bricks and the wheelbarrow from any oncoming wild animal attacks. They thought about attacking us but they just kept on walking by when they saw his "tough guy face".
We had to pack down the mud and to no one's surprise McCoy jumped right in with his assistance!! He just loved playing in the mud..........
Okay, maybe he loved the mud a bit too much!
We are always being told that McCoy and Daddy look alot alike.......but even from the back?!?!

DISNEYLAND!!! YIPPEE!!!

McCoy (and Mommy's!!) first trip to Disneyland was a great success. Fun was had by all during the entire visit. And of course we had to get our picture in front of Sleeping Beauty's Castle.
Mommy and the boy getting ready to fly through the air on a ride in the "A Bugs Land" area in California Adventure. Not sure who was more excited and/or nervous!!
Usually the lines are long to get pictures with the characters but we timed this just right and caught up with Eeyore. Colin held McCoy because we were afraid he might have blocked most of Alysse out in the picture!!
McCoy was upset he could not go on the Grizzly Mountain water ride with Mommy so she promised him he could meet the giant rafting bear. He also moonlights as a guide on the Galatin for Geyser Whitewater.........
Just like Daddy, if there is water the boy will find it. Luckily he was in his surf/swim shorts!
Absolutely LOVED Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters. Neon lights and he could shoot stuff!! Mom was a little upset that he beat her score. After a long road trip down the coast, a 100 yd Diaper Dash, a 5k, a half marathon and 3 days at Disneyland, the trip comes to a close. We ALL had a great time and cannot wait until next trip......which hopefully will be very, very soon. (Look closely and you can see Alysse's beautiful smile poking out just past Rachael's shoulder.)
