Oh wow, did we have a fun week. We took off from Cedar City Monday morning and headed down I-15 to sunny California. On the way there we stopped at a Disneyland discount store in Vegas where we picked up a few items for the kids. When we arrived at the resort we got into our room and waited for Jessica to arrive. That night we took the kids to a park to play while we cooked up some pork chops for dinner. Tuesday morning we started out our time in the Disneyland park. Most of the day we stayed in Tomorrow land where the kids rode the rockets and went on the other rides. Bailey absolutely loved riding the STAR TOURS ride. The next day we spent it over at California Adventure, here we rode the Soarin' over California ride, the merry go round and had lunch where Lindsey and Jessica made best friends with the workers. Nearly everyday we spent some time relaxing in the hotel pool with the kids. Really, staying at a disneyland hotel is so nice, everything is so close and all of the benifits are increadable. Well, Thursday we planned to take a break from the park and take the kids to the beach. It turned out to be a very interesting day. To start the day off I slipped in the shower and took the whole curtain off the wall. I mean everything came off, the rod that was skrewed into the wall broke tile off the wall when it came down. Needless to say we had to change rooms in order for matinance to come and fix the damage caused to the bathroom. This took the whole morning for the staff to find an open room and to wait for it to be cleaned for us. So, while I worked on moving all of our stuff to another room the girls took the kids to do some laundry. After the room change we were off to the beach, and what a perfect day it was! The kids loved playing in the sand and took turns getting buried. I took Bailey out and did a little boogie boarding in the waves, we really had a great time together. That night after some hot dogs at a park I sent the kids back to the hotel with Jessica so Lindsey and I could have a date. We made it back to the pier just in time to watch the sun set over the ocean... Ok, there was an island out there that ruined our ocean sun set, but it was still great to be out together. Lindsey said it was her first time actually watching the sun set. We spent the rest of the night looking through the little shops near the beach and getting a bite to eat at a resurant. I had a great time spending it with the girl I love. The following few days we jumped from park to park riding all sorts of rides, like the Indiana Jones ride, Splash Mountian, Nemo, Winnie the Pooh, and several others. Lindsey's favorite day was on Friday when we started the morning off with Breakfast in the Park where we saw so many characters while we ate. some favorites were Minnie Mouse, Dale, Captain Hook, and Eeyore. Also later that night we got Kennedy all dressed up in a Sleeping Beauty outfit and took the kids to Ariels Grotto where we ate dinner and saw Ariel, Snow white, Princess Aurora, Cinderella, and Belle. The look on Kennedy's face was priceless, really she was so happy to see all of the princesses. On our last day we got up early to make it into toon town for time with Mickey and Minnie. Even though it was fun to get all of the pictures it was too early for us and the kids. We had a great trip and loved the memories we made in disneyland. We plan in about five years to attempt another trip to diseyland if anyone would like to join us, we would have a great time.
