Disneyland

My pictures are completely out of order....I had them in chronological order and then managed to delete them as I was writing. I am lazy and don't want to go through the hassle of moving them all.

On our last day we went and ate at Goofy's Kitchen. The kids were in heaven being able to eat whatever they wanted to and visiting with the characters. Friday was my most memorable day due to being unable to sleep the night before due to some serious stomach issues which mad Friday a little miserable. The food didn't even look that good to me and believe me I like to eat! After we finished at Goofy's kitchen I went back to the hotel, Paige came with me to keep my company and I took a nap. We headed back and met up with our family and Friday was by far the most crowded day. It seemed like we were dodging people and ended up waiting longer for rides than we had the whole week. After dinner I took my 2 little ones back to the hotel and the other kids stayed late. They went on Splash Mountain like 10 times...(I am exaggerating a little)Tanner got back to the hotel soaking wet, and freezing but for sure was a happy boy!

While the big kids were on Splash Mountain Paige and I were able to visit Pooh, and Tigger. She really liked Pooh Bear but was unsure about Tigger. And of course Cameron didn't like either one.

Dad and Paige on the Dumbo ride.

Here we are after watching Bugs Life show. As you can tell Paige was so excited to be in the picture. She was still a little unsure of the whole show....maybe next time she'll like it?!

It was very hot while we were there so in order to keep cool we went on Splash Mountain multiple times and in California Adventure went on Grizzly Rapids probably 6 times in a row. But for those who weren't tall enough we got spray bottles and had a great time keeping cool.

Kylie really love the food we got at Ariel's Grotto. I love that we were able to capture how she was eating her spaghetti. She really was creative and it was fun to see her take each bite.

Cameron was loving the food and the fact he wasn't strapped in the stroller for once.

Paige and Cinderella, she was loving the personal attention that Cinderella gave her.

Ariel's Grotto we ate there on Wednesday and of course it was the warmest day we were there. I made the reservations and when I made them they told me that since we had such a large party we had to sit outside. I learned that next time we just have to break apart our group so we can eat inside. It would have been a much more pleasant experience! I think the kids loved it though, and Tanner actually got in the pictures this year....no more hiding under the table for that boy!

We had a great time in Disneyland....in fact the kids ask to go back everyday. If you ask Jason it was one day too many at the park, but really it was great the weather was warm and crowds were scarce. Perfect vacation, and a much needed break with dad. Unfortunately when we got home mom needed a vacation from our vacation.

After our rainy cold trick-or-treating the night before we were ready to go . The kids did pretty good in the car but were ready to get to our hotel. On Monday we headed to the beach, and surprisingly the kids did well. Tanner and Kylie even were brave and got in the water in fact Kylie got knocked over and got really wet and she loved it! Tanner and Kylie were loving finding shells.

Here is Tanner covered in sunscreen. Jason likes to put on a lot and not rub it all in so they get that pasty white look to him.

This is a happy picture of Cameron...he didn't like the sand or the water. But he didn't mind sitting on the blanket eating snacks.
We had a great time burying dad in the sand, the kids thought it was lots of fun!

Dad didn't even mind it. It was a perfect day at the beach warm weather, not too crowded happy kids which made for a great day. We headed back to the hotel and so Jason could pick up his brother and family. We had fun at the pool and then just visiting for the rest of the evening.

The next day we were off to Disneyland. We met up with Jason's other brother and family there and we were off to a fun couple of days.

Of course we went on the teacups multiple times, Paige loved them and was very adamant about the color teacup we were to ride in.

We ate lots of cotton candy and churros which made happy kids. We found out that Cameron loves cotton candy.

Tanner would want to ride on any ride with anybody but his mom and dad but especially mom. Here he is on a ride with his Uncle Jeff. Cousin Callie and Uncle Mark

Kylie, Maya, Callie, and Paige waiting for the rest of our gang to get off the Indiana Jones ride.

Fun vacation see you again in a couple years Disneyland!
