Disneyland

This year we went to Disneyland for Thanksgiving and Christmas. We left Thanksgiving day and went on Friday and Saturday to the parks. Eryka is Emylee's sister, they were going for Christmas and birthdays. They invited Chad and Emylee and the kids and then we got invited. Jakes dad didn't have plans and chad got him to come with us too.

We have never been at Christmas Time and wow oh wow was it even more magical of. Everything is decorated and beautiful. Make it snow and it is pure wonder! My momma heart glowed seeing eyes just sparkle. They have special food they make just for the holiday season. Which meant even more churros, popcorn, beignets, and so much more. Everything was so yummy!

This was our first year without a stroller or a kid in diapers. It was life changing. Jake and I each carried a backpack and it worked out absolutely perfect! We were at rope drop both days and the first ones at California adventures. We walked on the new star wars ride which made us ahead of the crowd the of the Day. Jake took the older 3 on a ride while I took Navy Over to see Mickey and Minnie. We couldn't get close because Covid. She was still so excited and happy. We even saw Cinderella and she asked navy if little nice made her bow and navy thought that was the funniest thing.

At California adventures we were the very first ones on web slingers. Everyone loved it and because we were the first ones we got the high score for the day even though I am not sure how long that lasted. Jake got the kids going on single rider lines. Multiple times they went on the ride then would hop back in line with us. The roller coaster best. All three older kids loved it. That and Indiana Jones were the only ones that navy couldn't go on. We are so used to having to sit out or take turns and it really is so much fun being out of stage.

As soon as the kids are tall enough I can't wait to take them on my favorite

Ride which is guardians of the Galaxy. This year was Navy's turn. She was so excited. The ride started and she cried and screamed the entire time. She had my arm in a deathgrip. After we walked away she couldn't catch her breathe from crying so hard. Then she said she kind of liked it. About five minutes later she loved it and wanted to do it again. 

She tells people It was her favorite ride. That girl makes us laugh!

The kids started collecting Disney pins which was for to see different ones. Navy had her heart set on a big sleeping Minnie that was wearing pajamas. Noah got a shoulder buddy of Woody from Toy Story. At the hotel we saw Jake and Chad's cousin Jimmy with his family. The Kids loved swimming with even more cousins. Enjoy the hundreds of pictures, we sure love making these memories. We can't wait to get back.
