Disneyland, Sea World, Disneyland and more Disneyland

For Fall Break we took the fam to Disneyland. We planned the trip in April and did not tell the girls for two reasons. 1. We didn't have to keep hearing them ask when we were leaving for Disneyland for the past 5 plus months. 2. We wanted it to be a SURPRISE!
We succeeded, it was a surprise and we had a GREAT time. We left last Sunday morning and arrived home Sunday evening. We also went to Sea World while we were there and hit the Utah game in Vegas on the way back. The kids did GREAT on the drive to and from. We did come home with three sick kids and one sick husband mainly from lack of sleep. Rather than have a huge long post, I am going to fill it with pictures and video.






Noteworthy:

When going to see "The Queen" Sadie ran up to her and hugged her. The Queen almost broke character and smiled. After regaining her composure she said, "I am usually not greeted with a hug."

Aerial invited the girls to go shoe shopping with her and Sadie has requested that we go every day since.


Addie's favorite ride....Star Tours


Sadie not scared of any ride and rode them all. She was disappointed that she was not tall enough to go on the Screamer.


Addie preferred the slower/non scary rides. Pirates of the Caribbean was not a hit with her. There were too many skeletons and she rode the entire ride with her hands over her ears and her head buried in Ryan's lap. Sadie could have cared less and Asher fell asleep in the middle of it.


I lost the girls for about 2 minutes. Ryan was on a ride and they were going through Tarzan's Tree house. My Aunt and cousins saw me and while I was talking with them they slipped past me. Luckily we were reunited immediately.


We sat in the Soak Zone for the Shamu show and didn't get wet at all.


It was a GREAT trip even though we came home with three sick kids and a sick Daddy.

I am glad that you had so much fun! I love seeing all the pictures again, and love Asher's reaction when Addie is screaming in the second video.

I love the video of Addie when she realized you were at Disneyland. It's classic Addie.
