Our California Trip Part 1

We went to Disneyland and California Adventure for vacation. The kids have been saving their money all year for this trip and have been so excited to do this. Isaac went to Arizona with his aunt and uncle just before, and met us in Anaheim. Once we got there we pretty much hit the ground running and didn't stop each day until about 11:00 P.M. Long days I know, but as a side note: Your kids sleep really sound and good when they run around all day long.
There is so much to see and do. Their was even stuff for Anna to do. It was wonderful. Even the weather was a perfect 72 degrees the whole time. (Sorry for those of you caught in the flood here at home)



Here are a couple of pictures from our vacation. I will have to put more on later.

Hollywood Tower Hotel or Tower of Terror. It is a hotel with an elevator that takes you to the top in the dark and then drops you several times with a really big drop right before the end. I must mention that it is in the pitch black except for the top where the elevator doors open and you see daylight for about 2 seconds before dropping 75 feet or so. (In the dark)I hated it. Maia and Troy loved it. Isaac wouldn't even attempt it. Smart boy.

After a long day, Isaac didn't even have time to take his mickey hat off before he fell asleep.

Maia ready to go for our "Disneyland Magic Morning" at 7 A.M. It is where you get in earlier than everyone else and you can go on rides before the crowds come. It was wonderful. I just went with Maia while Troy, Isaac and Anna slept in. It was so quite and peaceful in the park. I loved spending a few hours with my sweet Maia.

Anna didn't quite like her hat. She would only leave it on long enough for me to take this picture. Oh well. At least she has it for later. The shop personalized the hats with their names for free. I know the hats are a total tourist trap, but I had to do it. They were too cute to pass up.

Troy, Isaac, Anna and cousin Eain at the Brother bear playground at California Adventure. The kids could spend the whole day there. You could go on rope swings and tree houses and run around like well... little bears.

This will have to do until I get more pictures avaliable. It was a fun trip. Tiring but a total blast. The kids are already talking about going to Disneyworld in Florida next time. Oh boy what have I started. :)
