Disneyland!

Saturday was the much anticipated day at Disneyland. We arrived at the park at 7:30 and immediately made our way over to the Indiana Jones ride because it had a short wait time. We got in and almost to the front only to have it break down, but they gave us a universal fast pass, so we were happy about that. The kids LOVED the rides...mostly!  Landon doesn't love heights, and after going on Splash Mountain, we had a hard tome getting him getting him back on a ride. We hardly had to wait in line for any of the rides, which really helped. It was nice to go with people that had been before and knew how to work the system so that we didn't have to wait long. During the day, we rode Indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean, Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, the Matterhorn, Big Thunder Mountain, Star Tours, Buzz Lightyear, It's a Small World, did the Jungle Tour and ran through Tarzan's Treehouse.

Jungle Tour


Autopia (we waited in line longest here and the ride was kind of lame...sad)


Buzz Lightyear. This kids had lots of fun on this one because it was like a lazer tag game to see who got the highest points.

Jabin and Travis


A little time out for some cool treats. It was in the mid 80's all day.

Space Mountain! Some great faces! Travis wasn't feeling great and didn't go on this ride. Landon was too freaked out to go on it too. Grandma, Jabin, and Megan went after we did.


The guys being silly in the Star Wars store. Travis told Christian he needed to be yoda because he was old!

Splash Mountain
Landon's look of horror kills me!

Grandpa, Grandma, Carson, Isabelle, Campbell and Travis. One nice thing about having two strollers in our party is that we got parent switch passes that made it so that the two that didn't get to go because they were with the stroller got fast passes and two additional ones, so 4 people got to go twice!

Hanging around to get some dinner.

The boys all got giant turkey legs for dinner. Other favorite treats were the churros, frozen lemonade, yummy donuts with raspberry flavoring, ice cream and corn dogs.

 We left the park at 10:30 that night and everyone was super tired. Most of us fell asleep on the bus ride back to the hotel. The next morning, we left our hotel at 8 to catch our plane home.
You know you are tired when your grandpa has to hold onto your hood so that you don't face plant into the butt of the guy standing next to your seat!
We had such a great time with our family and made so many memories along the way!
