California/Disney Trip (Day 4)

Our last day, and I have to say that it was probably my favorite day.  Disneyland was awesome, but there was something special today that I can't put my finger on.

California/Disney Trip (Day 3)

Down to our last day at Disneyland. It was a little bittersweet. We had such a good time through the whole trip and it was sad that it'd be a whole year before we got to go again. This day was Friday, the sun was out, there were a little more crowds, but it still wasn't too busy.

California/Disney Trip (Day 2)

California Adventure is awesome!

After a busy and long day at Disneyland, California Adventure was a great mellow day. Again, the weather reports claimed 'showers' but the weather was great and there were no crowds again.

We went straight over to Soarin' Over California because that line is always long. The boys loved it and was one of the favorites at California Adventure. The soaring, the images, and smells...and I have to say that I really enjoy it as well. It just gives you a great appreciation for earth's beauty.

California/Disney Trip (Day 1)

WE HAD A BLAST!!!

Gavin and I have decided that this is going to be a yearly vacation. We had so much fun and the kids loved every minute of it. Everything worked out perfectly. It was the perfect time of year, it was the perfect weather, and the perfect place to visit.

Tuesday was our first day. We spent all day at Disneyland. The crowds were perfect because there wasn't any. We were practically walking on rides. The longest we had to wait for a ride was maybe 13 minutes. It was great because for Tuesday and Wednesday, the weather report said that it would be showers. I think that this scared away a lot of the crowds. It was overcast the whole day but only felt a few drops in the evening. We needed our sweaters because of the wind chill, but it was really nice.

Here we are, going into the park!

Spaghetti Dinner

Lexie's spaghetti dinner went really well. It was great to know that we had a lot of support from a lot of community members. Everyone was very supportive and very generous. Lexie was able to talk with a lot of people and a lot of people were interested in how they could help.

Guess What!!!

We have been married for over 8 years now. We've lived in Chicago, Cincinnati, Cedar Rapids, and Phoenix (surrounding areas), and we've ranged from 10 hrs - 26 hrs away from family. So, every single vacation was to see our families. Not that we are complaining, but for years now, we've wanted to have a REAL family vacation...just for fun. And now we're finally doing it!!!

Can you guess where we are going?

Time to Rejoin the Bloggers

Well, I know it's been a while...a long while, but like I said in the last post, I was REALLY busy. I've been so frazzled because I have only one week left before we put on an event for my cousin. Anyway, let me do a quick update of the few things I took pictures of.

During Spring Break, the boys and I went up to Utah...yep...me and 3 boys for 10 hours.
