Chad and Emylee made us all shirts turquoise and neon yellow! We were not an easy group to miss and it was amazing! Auntie Kay made the kids matching temporary tattoos that said if lost who to call. Such a great idea! Taryn even made all the little girls hair bows to match our shirts! Thanks everyone for your work to make this trip amazing!
When we got to CA we all swam and talked, just relaxing and enjoying the time before we started the marathon! The kids loved swimming and playing with cousins. Emylee, Kayla and I all stayed up and had girl talk till 3 in the am! Um what!? I don't remember the last time I voluntarily stayed up that late. We had such a good talk though! Love you girls!
We started off at Disneyland. First thing we see is Mickey! Noah had been so excited to see him and says, "yes! Mickey!" Well when it was his turn he cautiously walked up to him while Mickey held out his hand. Once Noah grabbed his hand there was no stopping him. He could not stop loving on Mickey! He kept grabbing his face and laying on it or giving him kisses. Mickey was amazing too, Noah hugged him and Mickey hugged him right back for minutes! The line was getting long so I grabbed Noah and Mickey waved me off and Noah just loved it! He just screamed Mickey and reached for him when I finally got him. Our next group went up to see Mickey and Noah snuck right back up to him and went in for that adorable hug! Mickey just kept him as we all loved it. Sorry for Noah photo bombing your pics! It was definitely my favorite part of the trip. :)
The kids loved splash mountain again, but Benjamin's favorite ride was Indiana jones! Us girls went on it together and loved it we had such a blast! It was my fav too! The kids loved seeing all the characters in the parade and waving and dancing. It was such a blast!
The next day we started off our day meeting Elsa, Anna, and Olaf! Yes the kids loved them. Of course, we all did! Little tavyn was so dang cute. She loves princesses now and was in awe of Elsa and Anna! Later some of us went to the sing a long. Kayla, Emylee and I all sat in the front with our girls. Penny and Umi were so into the singing and even got up to dance, just cute as can be. Even Noah was singing "let it go, let it gooo" and saying "essa, Anna, ola" so adorable! Emma sang a little bit but was awestruck that Elsa, Anna, christoff and more were right in front of us!
Benjamin was tall enough for California screamin this year and though it rocked! He had such a good Time going on it with his cousins over and over and over and over again! I went on it this year and forgot how much I love roller coasters. Noah's favorite was the finding nemo ride. We went on a submarine under water and watched through the windows digital parts of the movie. He was just chatting away, "bubbles, wa wa (water) fishy, nemo, and cash" He just loves his little bestie cash! Jake and I still love tower of terror! That drop is just so fun! Each night Emma got done pretty early and wAs so excited for her toy. Benjamin could have gone all night riding those big rides. When he stopped though he crashed right along with the other two! All he kids did so good for such long days. Noah did not like standing in lines though. He just didn't understand why he had to wait his turn for the fun that was right there! Well we looked at our phones and each walked around 25 miles! So yes at the end of our marathon we were all so exhausted but had such a good time.
Gramps and Grammy were so awesome sitting with the kids while we went on rides. We had a marvelous time and thank you again to everyone that made the trip happen! Love you all!
