Disneyland Trip

I need to figure out this blog thing a little better. Day one of our trip is at the bottom, and day four is here at the top. Oh well, I don't want to start all over.
We planned a trip with our friends Kelly and Brandon to go Disneyland. We all gave our kids tickets for Christmas. It was so much fun to have friends with us, and I think the kids loved having other kids to hang out with. And, they all got along so well.

Kelly and Brandon--mark your calendars. I want to go again in a few years!

There are a lot of pictures. So keep scrolling!




On our last day in California, we met up with my parents, my brother and sister-in-law, and my niece and nephew, Kiyena and Macray. We went to Hollywood trying to waste a few hours until we had to be to the airport.

Trevor and Spiderman. Creeps me out a little wondering what the guy under the mask looks like.

We got soaked on Grizzly Rapids. I don't remember getting this wet last time I rode this ride. Maybe I just can't remeber that many years ago, but I really don't remember getting drenched. The kids sweatshirts were so wet, we had to hang them over the stroller and they were will wet 5 hours later. We ended up having to buy the girls new sweatshirts to keep them warm. Luckily for me and Kelly, the lady that got off the ride just before us had two rain coats and she gave them to us. I was so glad I had that thing on. I was still drenched from the knees down. We all had a blast.

First Airplane Ride!

This was the first airplane ride for all of my kids except for Sydney. But, she was only a couple of months old the first time so for her, it seemed like the first time. They were all so excited. I really think Brenna was a little more excited about getting to fly than she was to go Disneyland. We were sitting over the wing, and when we were landing, Trevor freaked out and started yelling "the wings are broken". Hw could also see the ocean when we were landing with all the boats. He thought they were pirate ships. He was yelling that for everyone on the plane to hear as well.

The only complication we had was Cambree deciding to puke on the plane ride home.

Huntington Beach

Our hotel was only a few minutes from the beach so we decided to take the kids there for a little while. It was so funny because there wasn't very many people there, but the few who were there had their kids in sweatpants, and jackets with hoods. My kids were in their swim suits, and they were the ONLY people in the water. They had a ball. Sydney was only 4 and Brenna was only 2 last time we were at the ocean.
