Disneyland

In the beginning of December, I got a text from my mom saying "Merry Christmas! We are taking the whole family to Disneyland!' Woo hoo! Thomas and I were stoked because literally an hour before this text we were planning a trip to go for our anniversary. 

Wednesday, January 9th we left and came back Saturday night. The trip was AWESOME! I had so much fun being with my family, and also going off sometimes with just my husband. I am super sad Mason, Donelle, Nick, and Payton couldn't come though. We missed them! Here are some highlights from the trip:

*Going to Cars Land! This was our first time going there and it rocked. It is seriously the cutest. They definitely did a great job making it look just like the movie! 

*Not having to pay for the hotel or our Disneyland tickets so we literally spent a lot on food because we could... haha. I had a jalepeno stuffed pretzel, a couple churros, a pickle, and we ate almost all our meals at Disneyland. Mmm their food is so yummy. I love the chicken caesar salads.  

*Feeling GREAT even though I'm pregnant. I was so happy about this. I got a little more tired than I usually do at Disneyland and had to take more breaks (especially potty breaks haha) but I didn't mind at all. And yes, I couldn't go on all the rides, but I didn't mind. I wanna keep this baby safe!

*Seeing my nieces and nephews get so excited about the rides. Landon and Elliot especially, because this was their first time there. They were constantly going and going, never stopping. They had so much energy! They are also super brave. They loved Space Mountain (apparently after they went on it, Elliot said "I want to go on this 600 times!") haha. They crack me up. I remember the first time I went on that ride I was probably like 7, and I was so scared and I cried. They are only 4 and they loved it... brave little kids!

*Having our hotel right across the street from Disneyland. That was really nice. I love staying at this hotel. It's great not having to walk far or have to wait for a shuttle to come. 

*Being at Disneyland for 3 days! We got there Wednesday at about 1 in the afternoon and stayed the rest of that day, then went all day Thursday, and all day Friday.

*Wednesday wasn't crowded at all! We hardly waited at all for rides. Thursday and Friday weren't very crowded either compared to summer. 

Here are some pics from the trip! 

 The whole group! 

 Thomas and I had fun going on all the little kid rides with my nieces and nephews :) Dumbo rocks! 

Ok this ride at Cars Land is seriously the coolest ride EVER!! So fun! 

I loved watching Jett on rides. He always had his eyes so wide open! He loved looking at all the colorful things in It's a Small World. 

Overall the trip was a huge success! No one got hurt, no one was sick, and there wasn't too much fighting/drama haha. Good times!! Thanks mom and dad for the amazing trip!!
