Merry Christmas from Disneyland!

On December 6th we took off to sunny California. It was so much fun and perfect weather. We first visited family and friends and then met up with 2 other families from Utah ,who we are good friends with. We stayed in Anaheim and had 4 day hopper tickets to Disneyland and California Adventure. The weather couldn't have been better, 75 degrees everyday and it wasn't too crowded. December is really a great time to go to Disneyland. Anyway, by the end of the 4 days the kids were done with Disneyland. We went all day and into the night, it was exhausting, but so fun. Here are a few fun pictures to share.

Father and son(so cute!)





Baby Rich and Baby Chad




Brady's Birthday Party!

We went to Rich's best friends little boy's birthday.






Almost all the kids in our group, 3 of the boys were

on a ride.





Goofin around with Goofy





Chillin out in Minnie's house.
Kenzie couldn't go on one of the rides, so we ate
cotton candy instead.




Of all the rides at California Adventure we just

had to go on the Merry-go-round.




By the end of the night the kids couldn't even eat

dinner. We had another one in another booth asleep, also.





Kenzie just had to have a picture with Mirabell

Cow. She has never even seen her, she just thought

she looked pretty.


BFF's at Disneyland, could it be more fun!







This time she fell asleep as soon as her head hit
the pillow. Only a few seconds or so.







The Buzz Lightyear ride is highly recommended.


Rich and Maddie got to go up and dance with the
Highschool Musical group. It was really funny.

What a trooper! This is a true experienced Disneyland mom. Baby on the hip, one on the shoulders and a camera around her neck. You go girl!

Never a dull moment....

I haven 't blogged in awhile and thought I would share a few pictures from our busy and fun life.
There is always someone willing to get in front of the camera, so why not take the picture and share. So did anyone else shop on Black Friday? Let me know how it went for you. I went at 3:30 am and braved Walmart first. Was it worth it? Maybe not. People there are not nice. At 5am you are given the go and everyone just rips into piles of stuff. It was crazy and a little painful. I don't think Walmart will be on my agenda next year, but I will go again to other stores and brave the crowds for the awesome deals. I hope everyone had an enjoyable Thanksgiving. I know I did. I'll have to share our Thanksgiving highlights at a later post. Until then TTFN.
