DiSnEyLaNd!!!!

We got back a little over a week ago from Disneyland and I've been waiting to get all the pictures from my sister since we let her do all the picture taking...it eliminated packing around our big camera. Anyways my cute parents took the family to Disneyland. The whole family went, except for Preston and Ethan. I wasn't about to try and make him sit for meals, drag a diaper bag around, try and get him to sit in a stroller all day, and deal with naps...so maybe next time! A big thanks to my Aunt Becky for watching him!! We headed out on Wednesday, a snow packed Utah day, and got back to a still freezing cold Sunday. It was a nice 4 day adventure at The Happiest Place on Earth. The weather was great, the lines were short, and every one was happy. Be aware...lots of pictures ahead!!

The First Day.....

It's family tradition to hit up TGI Fridays right when we land...so in following tradition, here we are!!

After checking in we headed over to Disneyland. Disney closed at 8:00 and California Adv. at 6:00 so we hit up some rides before the night ended.

Day 2 ....
We hit breakfast in the morning where mom and dad ate breakfast with all the kids and us kids ate at a table by ourselves....I think my sister was in heaven! We then caught the monorail over to Disneyland and partied most of the day between there and California Adventures. My family constantly has us laughing. I don't think there is ever a dull moment.

The whole family on the good old Monorail!

We were talked into going on the lamest ride at Disneyland....freakin Autopia. I'm not wasting my time ever going on that again. It's not that we haven't done it before but we all decided it gets more lame every year.

Of course we all love standing in lines for the KID rides. No lines at any of the big rides, just the lame ones....oh well it's good family memories.

...and I had to post this picture because Kurt always says I have a huge pout lip...which I can admit, but seriously.....look at his retarded one!!

Day 3 ....
Another fun filled day between both the parks. We hit up Screamin, Tower of Terror, and the new Toy Story ride again. It was quite the competition to see who could get the best score on Toy Story or if anyone could beat the high score of the month, which was ridiculously high! And some of us joined in on dads "so called games" which are secret.

Day 4 ....

This year we found the train at Disneyland. I'll admit I've been to Disneyland my share of times and I've never ridden the train. You know the one that picks you up right on main street and then makes its way around the park?? Ok I didn't either! I had seen it a million times up at the station on Main Street, but had no idea it dropped you off random places around the park, let alone took you through the Grand Canyon and a Dinosaur exhibit. So here we all are on the train ride.

Day 5 ....
I always hate when trips come to an end, but we were excited to get back to Ethan. I can't wait to bring him here one day. He will love it. Until there are no diapers....we are on hold! And until that time it's so nice to just be with my hubby!! It's always a blast to be with my family too. I look forward to our family vacations! Thank you again mom and dad, you are the best!!
