More Disney Pictures….

     

If you’re wondering what’s up with Brynn’s pink hair, I’ll tell you about it in my next post…

The Rides!

Last visit to Disneyland was a little bit tricky. Brynn was only 3 and so she wasn’t able to go on many of the rides. Because of this, Danny and I would have to take turns taking the boys. It was okay, but it’s so much more fun to be able to go on everything together.

Brynn is just about 6 now, and as short as she is she was still able to go on pretty much everything. And even luckier for us, she is a roller coaster junkie! She is so much braver than any of her brothers at that age. For those of you who have visited California Adventure and ridden on “The Tower of Terror”, that is her FAVORITE ride. I think she went on it 6 times during our visit. Basically it’s an elevator ride that takes you up twelve stories and then drops you several floors at a time. Very scary, but she loves it!

My boys really preferred California Adventure over Disneyland this year. The rides there are a bit more scary. I myself am quite happy with Pirates of the Caribbean or It’s a small world. Yes, I’m a wimp.

     

This is the Winnie the Pooh ride. Doesn’t Skyler look so excited! LOL!

First Morning in Disneyland

This is our families second trip to Disneyland and one of our favorite things to do while there is to go to Goofy’s kitchen for a character breakfast. It’s fun for the kids because they get to see many of the Disney characters without having to wait in line at the park. But the food is even better. I don’t know what I was thinking on this trip, but I didn’t get a picture of the buffet. It’s truly amazing. There is so much food you could feed an army. My favorite is Goofy’s Peanut Butter and Jelly Pizza. Yummo!
   
(Goofy made me blush!)

The Flight

I wish Danny would have gotten a picture of my face before boarding the plane. I was terrified! I hate to fly. I was so scared. It was our kids first time on a plane so I had to try and be brave for them. Of course they thought it was so much fun. Me, not so much…

Here are a couple pictures taken during flight. I didn’t take them of course. In fact, I made Sam keep the window closed so I couldn’t see a thing :)

Oh by the way, we’re on our way to Disneyland!

    

Summer Vacation 2010!!

Our summer vacation this year started off in Seattle. Believe it or not, being so close to Seattle, this was our first time there. Seattle is awesome! Being there reminded me how much I LOVE big cities! The huge buildings, all the people bustling around the streets. Love it! We only had the afternoon here since our flight left the next morning so we were only able to see a small part of Seattle, but it was fantastic!

   

After many recommendations, we ate at the Cheesecake Factory! (never been there either… I know, crazy) So yummy. I’m not even a big fan of cheesecake, but let me tell you this was the best darn cheesecake I’ve ever put in my mouth. I was so upset with myself for not taking a picture of it.

Next, the dreaded flight…..Ahhhhhh!!!

P.S. I know it’s been decades since I’ve posted on my blog. I’ve finally gotten photoshop to work on my new computer so I will be posting more. Check back soon.

Baseball!

Baseball season has begun. Thankfully the weather has been cooperating for the games. Last week we spent every night there. Even though it does keep us very busy and I complain often about having to be there so much, I really love it. I’m so glad that Sam and Nick enjoy it too.

Here are some pictures that my famous photographer friend Jenne took this past week.  Sorry I don’t have any of Nick yet. They’ll be coming.
