Disneyland (Days 5 &6)

Day 5 at Disneyland was awesome. The weather was great. The ENTIRE family was there (Kelsey, Logan, Brittany and Clay all arrived) We did a few rides at Disney in the morning and spent the rest of the day over at California Adventure. We'd never been to CA Adventure before. What FUN! We absolutely LOVED the CARS street and the roller coaster and the Toy Story ride! Disney really is amazing!

We did a little Jedi training which was SO cute. Parker really got into the role!

We rode on the tower of terror for the first time. SOOOOO fun!

We met up with some friends the Turvilles from Idaho Falls and went on a couple of rides together. Sharla and I and the kids and BABIES got stuck on the huge ferris wheel for a good 20 minutes. I was freaking out a little bit I'm not going to lie. Luckily we got some free passes to Toy Story for our traumatic experience.

 

Day 6 was C.O.L.D. It rained and the high temp that day was only about 53 degrees. The cooler weather didn't stop us though. We were glad it probably kept even more of the locals away! We had about a 15 minute downpour but then the sun came out right after which was nice.

 

 

My all time favorite part of the day was when we dressed Anna up in her little Cinderella dress and took her over to meet the princesses. O my goodness. It was such a special few minutes. I never saw a princess when I was little and I haven't had a reason to take the boys to see the princesses so I just absorbed each moment. It was so ridiculously sweet.

We rode on a few more Fantasyland rides, headed to Toontown and then spent a lot of the afternoon over in Frontierland.

Ah yes, the good old Tiki room:

Then we went back to CA Adventure for the rest of the night.

That evening we watched the World of Color water show. In-CREDIBLE! Love, love, LOVED it!!

Our trip was so wonderful. It was just great to spend an entire week together and get away from the extreme cold for awhile. I sure am grateful for in laws who help us make these memories for our children. They are so generous and giving and I can't thank them enough for making this vacation a possiblity. I can only hope to be as thoughtful to my daughter in laws and grandchildren one day.
