Disneyland 2010

Sorry, here is a long line of pictures. I know it's lame to have so many but it's my blog and I like pictures.


















Some things to remember:
-Kate was the perfect age to visit Disneyland. She was so excited to meet every character and was not afraid to give lots of hugs. Here speech improved dramatically the two days we were there. She had no problem telling us were she wanted to go and what she wanted to see. She says her favorite ride was the "Ladybugs". I loved having a child her age to make the park Magical.
-Grayson was finally old enough to ride every ride. I thought he would love Indian Jones, he thought it was still a bit too scary. His favorite rid was Pirates of the Caribbean.
-Lydia rode every ride she could, but only because I made her. She cried before riding Thunder Mountain, but it ended up being her favorite ride.
-The kids and I have vowed to NEVER ride Hollywood Tower of Terror again. Jared was sure they were old enough to ride. He promised they wouldn't get scared. I rode the ride with them while he watched Kate and Clair. I wanted to kill him. If they don't have nightmares for months it will be a miracle. I don't even know what happens on the ride I was too busy trying to control my freaked out kids. They were bawling and yelling the whole time. We were strapped down so all i could do was hold their arms and yell in their ears it was going to be okay.
-There was an earthquake in Southern California and they had to close down the rides early the first night.

You took your kids on Tower of Terror. Holy cow. I had nightmares about that ride and I'm an adult. I can't believe you got them to do it. Your kids are so much braver than mine.

We've been in a state of depression since you guys left. Graham kept saying, "Are our friends coming?" or "I need my friends!" We had so much fun!!

I hope you had a fabulous day today! Happy Birthday!

So glad you guys had fun at Disney, we go every year in Sept. to Disney World though. But now that my Bf and my mother-in-law both live in CA me may start going to Disney land. I love seeing your family blog, I love you as an amazing crafter, but I like to peek at you as the mom and wife also. Oh about seeing my Hubby over the Summer he teaches Summer School and really only have 4 weeks off so we have yet to have extra time with him, but I will not complain about it only being 4 weeks.
