Man we're getting old!!!

So I realized this weekend that we are getting old! :( We went out with our great friends the Barnes and Parrish's to celebrate Merrill's 40th birthday! WHAT????? We have a friend that's 40??? Um.....that means we are not far off! Wow, I sure don't feel like I'm getting close. Good thing we still all act 20! :) We had such a great time, we sure love these guys and are so grateful for their friendship! We seriously ALWAYS have so much fun when we're together!

Us, the Barnes, and the Parrish's! Eating dinner up in Park City!


Me, Kristen, and Merrie!


GREAT friends!


The BIG 40!


Even Wilson smiled!


Oh my gosh you are an old man now Merrill! :)


Awwww.....HUGS!!!


Happy Happy day to you Merrill, you old man! Hee Hee

California DAY 6 = Coming Home = :(

Today the boys stayed and swam at the pool in the morning with Jake while me, Ange, Mya, and Wils were crazy once again and decided to go for a few more hours to the California Adventure side. There were still some characters we were wanting to meet, (side note, Ange is going to make Wilson a darling ABC book for his birthday of him with Disney characters so we spent quite a bit of time trying to find certain characters for that!) Anyway, the few hours went by fast of course then we met up with everyone for our last little lunch and some shopping! I am sad that the trip is already over, seriously why does it go by so so so fast??

Playin in the pool!


Cute Cute Sulley!




Beautiful babes of mine!


Ha Ha Ha!




Nemo!

For our last lunch we had Goofy's kitchen again. It's funny cause we weren't as EXCITED to see the characters as we were the first few days so there were hardly any pics taken.

Another Roo Roo!


And another Sleeping Beauty!


The LEGO store. Awesome Darth Vader!


Oh my gosh, how cool is this LEGO Woody?




Mya's darling little princess pins!


Wilson has had it and Jake is THRILLED to be going home!! Of course he had a great time, but was ready for his own bed! :)


We are SOOOOOOOOOOOOO sad that our vacation is over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Just ready to board the plane!




Somebody loves the plane ride! :)


Wilson playing peek a boo with Ange!




BYE Disneyland, we will miss you!!!!!!

Honestly this was one the best trips ever! The perfect people, lots of fun, and of course amazing memories. It was kind of a sacrifice for us to be able to go, selling the cruiser and all, but I am so grateful we did and that we were able to spend such awesome quality time. I will treasure this FOREVER and am already looking forward to going again!

California DAY 5 = the first day of HALLOWEEN

Today was so very crowded because it was the first official day they open the park for Halloween, but no matter the crazy crowds, the Halloween rides were super fun! The Haunted Mansion and Space Mountain were all set for the season. Of course we had another jammed pack day of fun! It's so funny because me and Ange could just go go go, and so could the kids for that matter, never too much of Disneyland. I think Jake and Dad had a different idea, ha ha! They were really good sports though!

The Mickey Pumpkin!


The White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland!


We were so excited to see Woody! He's the cutest!


How darling is Jesse!


Wilson of course LOVING the Roo Roo's!


Oh my gosh we saw Jack and Sally! How cool is that!




Tay was SOOOOOOOOO excited to see Jack!


Tay's fadora got around, look how cute Ange looks in it!


BUZZ again, Mya LOVED this ride!


The Haunted Mansion!


YUMMY turkey leg.....actually looks pretty disgusting to me! :)




Us on Space Mountain! LOVE this ride!


Tay and his awesome Jack Skellington pins!


Dallin and his awesome Jack Sparrow pins.

We seriously had such a blast trading pins, the kids would get so excited, totally worth it!

Oh Hello cute boy!


Wils so proud of himself for being able to drink from a straw!


Bros!


Look at this..............we have something to match it!


How cute is he?

So Jake had this great idea of saving a VIP seat right across from the castle to watch the fireworks, but it required being there for 4 hours, wowzers. We kind of all just took turns waiting, and I have to say, it was worth it.

Waiting for the fireworks to start!


Wilson LOVED this little light up sword we got him!




Mickey dressed up for Halloween!


Cute little witch Minnie saying SSSHHHH!!! Kids sleeping!


Sleepy Sleepy, even Dallin is tuckered out tonight! :)
