Disneyland!!

We just got back from a very long awaited trip to Disneyland!! We decided to try out the Disney Trick-or-Treat night, and were not disappointed! It was a lot of fun! We were able to walk on every single ride, and some (Indiana Jones) we were allowed to stay on and go again! I think we went on Thunder Mountain about 40x that night :) The kids had a blast! Okay so did Josh and I.

We had a blast! The weather was amazing! We LOVED getting wet on the Grizzly River Run and all took turns getting soaked!! We never had to wait in line!!

Will and Nate were both tall enough to go on all the rides! Nate loved every one!! But Will however, turned green and may have blacked out on the Screamer, and didn't want to go again. And was terrified of the Tower of Terror! Go figure.....Screamer

Josh's favorite ride!!! By far!!!! Probably mine too......

Toy Story

Emery, Nate, Will and I dressed up as robbers, Ethan just wanted blue hair, and josh had some disgusting tattoo scars/bullet holes. But there were some really elaborate costumes there, people went all out!Behind them is the castle with the skeleton dance from silly symphony (Beth this was for you!!) We used to love this cartoon and would laugh our heads off.

We also had a day to go to the beach (of course it was the one day that was cloudy and cold) but the kids didn't care! They got soaking, swam, and got extremely sandy. My best friend, Kira, of 28 years (wow I'm old) was able to come with her husband and 2 absolutely adorable kids. It was a lot of fun to see them.My friend Kira's little girl, Mari! So cute!!

There were about 6 dolphins swimming and playing. They were riding the waves, surfing, jumping and diving. It was so cool to see these amazing creatures. (of course this was the only photo that turned out, they were just to fast for my camera)

Josh, Ethan and Emery also caught some little sand crabs!!! Ugly little things.

After going on trips like this, I realize just how great my kids are! They appreciate so much and get along with each other so well. It makes it all worth it!!
