December 2009

Tuesday night we headed to the airport in order to redeem the second part of the boys' Christmas present, a trip to Disneyland!!

We had so much fun! We went to Disney and California Adventure three days...







Here is Conner on Small World, oh my Lord, he loved this ride. I took him on this simply because it had no line and Carson was on Indiana Jones (this was one ride I wouldn't let him ride). Have you ever been on Small World? It is so boring! I was so relieved when he asked if we could ride again and the line was too long. Darn, but I was happy he was able to ride it once this trip (he has been on a few times before this trip too) since he enjoyed it so much!














Rode rides,




Traveled without strollers, but ended up renting one each day after my Dad and I alternated carrying Conner because he "couldn't walk one more step or his leg would fall off",



Spent time together,





Ate lots of food (some good, some well, not so good).

Walked alot,



(Carson ran most of the time in an attempt to keep up with us...this child walks sooo sllloooowwww!)



Waited in lines,












Watched Playhouse Disney Live,





Played in the play areas,








Saw celebrities,

(See the back of Marc Anthony? I'm sure you're wondering why I didn't get the back of J.Lo!! ;) I'm assuming the other lady was the nanny, she helped with the twins.)



(Sorry this was the best I could do...my Dad was embarresed that I was taking pictures, Carson thought the bodyguard could arrest me, and people were starting to run up).

Fell asleep on shuttles,



and even visited the beach!















It was such a fun week! Although Conner was tall enough for all the rides and did ride most of them, there were some that I didn't let him ride because they were either too rough or too scary. We rode just about every ride at Disneyland and did ride every ride at California Adventure. Surprisingly, we all seemed to enjoy California Adventure better than Disney, the lines were shorter and the rides were more geared for the boys ages (4-9), so we spent alot of time here, riding lots and having a BLAST!

My Mom had been feeling sick so she wasn't feeling up to going and Nan ended up not being able to go, my Dad stepped in and us and the boys enjoyed spending time together! We all chose rides we were really excited about and made sure to hit those the first day and we were able to ride some two and three times, which was even more special to ride our favorites!






This was our third year to go to Disneyland at Christmas, I hope it becomes a tradition! What Christmas traditions do you and your family enjoy?
