Last Day

So our last day was Monday.
We packed up the van, 
then headed over to the park for a few hours.
This by far was the best day.
Hardly any lines
walked right on to Tower of Terror.
(lovie that ride)
Kaden was able to meet Woody.

and after years of wanting one... I FINALLY bought this.



 oh and one of these!

Until next time Disneyland. *slight tear*

A Day of Rest

Day 5 - Relaxation

Ahhhh sleeping in.

The day was enjoyable with heading to 
Newport Beach






 Lifeguard Headquarters eh?

We drove around for a bit checking out the sites.

I have always wanted try Sprinkles Cupcakes
Luckily there was one close by
(must of been my lucky scrunchie) (movie quote)
So we partook of the awesomeness
oh.my.gursh. OH MY GURSH

We headed back to the hotel 
to relax a little more
and then head to dinner.
Last time we were there we found a place called
Po Folks

Wulp, they had one not to far from the hotel
Drove to the destination to found out

BOO!

Day 4 - Chaos

We had a better plan today
which is good
because
Saturday was SOOOO BUSY
Like 2 hour long lines busy.
But as I said,
We had a plan, so the day went a wee bit smoother.

Found out there was a charity walk on Sunday
So we decided to take the next day off.
Here are more pictures of 
Our second day in the park.







 Kaden was chosen to be in the conga line
in the parade.
(now I know y'all have the Gloria Estefan
song stuck in your head)



(oops here is one that snuck in from day one)

Disneyland!

Day 3
The Happiest Place on Earth

Our day started somewhat early
Our hotel had free breakfast
Win.

Headed to the park.

We were greeted at the main gates
With Alice, The Mad Hatter, Rabbit
and
The Disneyland Band .
Happiness, 
lil teary (hush)
Did I take pictures?
No. 
Fail.
There were lines to meet the characters
We were able to meet Minnie and Mickey!



The rest of the day was full of fun!
 
 The first ride... 


I bought this cute lil bucket of popcorn
at 9 am
don't judge



.

California.. here we come...

Day 2= more driving.  
STILL no pictures 
(I told you I failed at taking pictures).  
The drive through the canyon was a wee bit nerve wracking. 
When there is a cliff to nothingness to the side of you
it kind of freaks me out

We got to our hotel
later that afternoon
where we had somewhat of a view of Disneyland 
(could see the top of the Matterhorn)

We checked in. 
The hotel was ok.  
For the price we paid I am so not going to complain. at.all. 
Now, here is where I should have taken a photo.  
In front our room were 3 toilets.  
Now they weren't there for that long.  
In fact, by the time the van was unpacked, they were gone.

As we were driving down, as well as unpacking the van, 
we kept telling Kaden about going swimming at the beach.  
The weather was GREAT!! 
That was for the time being.. 
by the time we unpacked and changed 
we had complete complete cloud cover and the temp dropped about 10 degrees.  
Boo
The closer we got to the beach the colder it got.  
Double Boo!
So we bagged that idea and did some shopping for our next day adventures.  
My nephew was a little bummed.  
As were the rest of us.
