Disneyland - Part 2

Did I mention the weather? Beautiful the whole time, 70's during the day and all you needed was a sweatshirt at night. The sun makes my heart feel good. And Saturday begins.......

Don't let that smile fool you....there is a reason we labeled our stroller as pouty!

One face painting and Pluto hat later we were beginning to turn our frown upside down. We ran into Sulley from Monsters Inc. and Gar was in heaven.

Hey, where'd he go?

*Gar's favorite rides: The Tower of Terror, Pirates, Haunted Mansion and Toy Story Mania. The kid is fearless!

*Adi's favorite rides: her stroller

I just loved watching them experience Disney for the first time!

They both loved the bunk beds in the hotel room

Boo! Time to go home

We love you Grandma and Grandpa!! Thank you for coming with us and being part of our fun (and putting up with us for 4 days). Now, let's do some camping!

DiSnEyLaNd!!!

This year we decided to take a family trip to Disneyland. We decided to make it a shorter trip to see how the kids would do so we left on a Friday and came back home on Monday. Since it was a shorter trip we asked Grandma and Grandpa Hardy to come along with us so we could spend some much needed time with them.......and fun times and memories we have!

Gar and Adi checking out the planes, neither one of them had been on a plane before

Preparing for takeoff

They were both so good on the plane and Adi acted like an angel (I had nightmares of her screaming the whole time)

First ride.....the carousel

Unfortunately, shortly after this ride it all went down hill.......Gar had one of his tummy episodes and we had to leave the park after less than two hours of being there. We went back to the hotel to get some medicine and to let him sleep so this is what I did the rest of the day, watch Adi go up and down the stairs! Have I mentioned that there are two places she will sleep, home and daycare. I'm beginning to think, what were we thinking?!?! But the weather was beautiful so I couldn't complain!

We woke up Saturday and were determined not to spend another minute in the hotel room so we walked over to the park and rented Gar a stroller.

We got a signature from Pluto....Adi was not amused!!

and than some more of this..........poor guy! I slept up in his bunk bed with him and he tossed and turned ALL night, he wasn't doing good.

This is where Adi preferred to spend her time, she was not a fan of the rides at all!!! We did quite a few rides and than we headed over to California Adventure. No one had been over there before so I was anxious to go check it out. Gar's heart just wasn't in it so not too long after being there we headed back to the hotel to do some swimming and resting.

Gar loves jumping in.......swimming lessons are a must this year!!

Adi didn't care for the water or having her shoes off! (Hmmmm, at least they aren't moon boots! hahaha)

Easter

HoPpY eAsTeR!!

It started out with a Easter party and Grandma & Grandpa Hardy's house. There was lot of food, Easter egg hunting, stories (Gar loves to listen to grandma's stories!) games and plenty of prizes for all the kids.

Gar and Adi checking out all the eggs they found.
What happened!?! Easter exploded in our front room

March

Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me....... Can't we stay 25 forever!?! Sean and the kids took me to Tepanyaki, yummy! I even got a dinner in with my sisters this month, that definitely doesn't happen enough!!

Next up, St Patrick's Day. We tried to catch some leprechauns at our house so we tried to build a trap. Unfortunately, they got away but left us with Lucky Charms hidden in our dryer and turned our milk green. We'll build bigger and better next year!

Adi's daycare class made t-shirts for St. Patrick's. The front read, No I'm not a Leprechaun and on the back they put their green hand prints.
We had Alex and Ella for a weekend and we were starting to go stir crazy so we took a trip to the Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point. The kids had a blast, I didn't think we would ever get them to leave the sand and water exhibit!!

February

Apparently not much went on in February! I was going through all the pictures we have loaded in the computer and there was just a lot of random pictures. So I thought I would share this one, the kid cracks me up!! I could have sworn there were some Valentine's picture in there but I can't find where I put them. Oh well, not my favorite holiday anyways. Oops

Happy Birthday Dad!
