Flashback Friday

This flashback is going to take us back to only about 7 months ago. Right after we moved, and no longer had Internet, our family went to Disneyland. WE LOVE DISNEYLAND!!! Especially Chris! Chris isn't passionate about a lot of things but if anyone mentions Disneyland his eyes light up and he acts totally like a kid again. This makes me very happy since most of you know Chris is a very big stress-case! Anyway, we never got to post pictures of our amazing trip so here are just a few from our three day trip!

DAY 1 - Grandma and Grandpa came and it is so nice to have them help with the kids. We did decide to leave Abigail home (after much sadness and stress from me) but I am so glad we did because the older kids had much more fun and we were able to go on almost every ride together. We have decided to make a family tradition of going when each of the kids are between the ages of 4-5. That is the best age for them to enjoy most of the rides but they still love all the make-believe!

I saw a couple of the little girls running around with face paintings and really wanted Allie to have one so we looked for a face painter and got her face painted. She LOVED IT!

We actually got stuck on Splash Mountain and had to get off the ride half way through. Luckily it was after the drop!

We went to the Princess Lunch for Allie. It was a little expensive but totally worth it. We didn't have to worry about standing in line to see each of the princesses and the food was 4-star quality. We got autographs and pictures with all the princesses!

This was probably the most exciting part of the whole trip! We went to California Adventure early one morning and while waiting for them to open the park, the security gaurd there fell in love with Allie. I guess they pick one family every day to "Open" the park and we got to be the family. We got to hold the rope, sign the "Tower of Terror" book that stays in the "Hotel" and be the first one on the ride...we actually got our own "elevator"! It was pretty awesome and our kids got such a kick out of it!!

When we got home we gave Abigail a Baby Minnie and as you can see she loved it!
