Disneyland

We planned a surprise trip to Disneyland with the Bills in October- all of our kids match up and love to hang out (except the lone ranger Abby)  We surprised them the morning of, which was really fun for everyone, and were on a plane that afternoon - it was such a fun, quick trip and so much fun to spend time with our kids (Will was oh so happily left at home....)

Just in case I start acting weird or twitching, you'll know what to blame it on.....

These two little princess-lovers were the main reason we planned our trip to Disneyland - they were so fun to be with

look at those faces - they were trying to figure out if all the animals on the jungle cruise were real or not.  I, of course, may or may not have flat out lied and told them that ALL the animals were real.

Abby was in heaven on those roller rides

i was loving Sierra's self-made disney bun.

starting off Day 1 - so much fun, I seriously love amusement parks

They didn't really care about the princess, they just wanted a picture:)

These girls were a different story, they waited in line with jocelyn for a good hour for this chance to see  these beauties.  it was fun to watch

Newport Temple

cute boys

These people were such fun and easy going travel partners, we had a great time with them - There's not a lot of people that I'd share an adjoining room with - The Bills totally made the cut:)

and off to the beach, one of the highlights of the trip - Corona del Mar

oh, I forgot how much fun beaches are with kids

Uncle Jeff and aunt Rachel came down from LA to hang out with us for the day- they're awesome

cute little beach body Tait

If only baby crabs knew how entertaining they were

hanging out on Balboa Island - ice cream and frozen bananas....

oh the Bibbity Bobbity Boutique, need I say more - look at that doozy -Jane was all business

Presley decided she was going dark for the day....

And those hairpieces quickly turned into.... scary peacocks )that made me laugh every time I looked at her, which she did NOT appreciate.)

Cars Land was awesome - and seriously, look at the west valley hair, it was out of control.

the water/light show at California adventure - it almost brought me to tears.  I mean, who doesn't cry at the Tangled song?  it was really awesome

thanks Bills for such a fun trip to Disneyland and thanks kiddos for being kids so the adults could have an excuse to go too, we loved it.
