California Vacation Day 7....

We started the day off in Disneyland. We rode some of the rides the kids didn't get to ride and then we went into Toon Town and let the kids play for a bit.

The kids with Goofy...

Then we finished the day in California Adventure riding rides, walking around and seeing some fun new characters.. Just doing everything the kids wanted to since it was our last day in California....

WOW!!! The World of Color is the most Amazing water show I have ever seen... It was filled with music, lights, fire, and pictures from Disney movies, how they did it was so entertaining. We had to wait for about 2 hours to save our spot but it was well worth the wait...

California Vacation Day 6...

Back to Disneyland for another Magical Day!!!

MICKEY MOUSE in his Halloween attire with our Family...


We started the day off with a ride on the train, then the boys were off to ride rides while the girls went to pixie hollow to see Tinker Bell and Friends...We rode a lot of the same rides and were able to see a ton of characters (including all of the kids favorites: Jack Skellington, Buzz and Tinker Bell)!

Tonight was the Street Parade with lots of dancing, characters and music...The kids really enjoyed it and even got to go and dance with them all but Brennick he was being a party pooper.

We had dinner at Tortilla Jo's a Mexican restaurant in Downtown Disney...The kids really enjoyed the balloon part, after you are all done eating a guy comes around and makes your kids a balloon of their choice.WOW!!! He was amazing... Brennick got a motorcycle with a guy on it, Hudson got Rex from Toy Story and Emmie got her favorite Tinker Bell...

It was another Fun and Exciting Day in Disneyland...

California Vacation Day 5...

Sorry this is a way long post with a million pictures, but it was a very long day!!!

Today we are off to California Adventure!!! It was hot again today but, we had a great time riding rides and seeing all the characters.... We spent some time in a bugs land for the little ones, the 3D bug movie was so cool and the bug glasses were so cute. The ride of the day was Tower of Terror, the line wasn't long at all so they went on it over and over again!!!

Pixar Play Parade
Such a fun parade with a little water action which felt good after a long hot day!

It was dinner tonight at Goofy's Kitchen!!! The kids had so much fun with all the characters, and got their grove on dancing with goofy....Not to mention all the yummy food and what better than all you can eat!!!

After we walked and shopped Downtown Disney District..

My kids love Lego's and thought this was a way cool store! Cant imagine how long it would take to build some of the stuff in there. WOW!!

What a cool BOY/MEN store!! My boys and husband went wild in this store, it's were you can build your own ride. The boys each built one and actually got to pick all the parts and put them all together. Hudson built a RZ Sling shadow street rider and Brennick built a black Chevy Corvette they had such a fun time building them....

Scary!!!
The boys tried on a Mad Hatter hat... This is what Brennick would look like with long wavy red hair and Matt totally looks like a stoner!!!

Emmie enjoying the ride with her Minnie Mouse..

All tuckered out from a very long and fun day...

California Vacation Day 4...

Grandma and Grandpa with the kids...

Well today was a very FUN and HOT day in Disneyland, it was record breaking heat at a 109*!!! Our first ride of the day was Buzz Astro Blaster which was a favorite of Hudson's, Brennick loved the Indiana Jones ride and Emmie thought that It's a small world was pretty neat she didn't move the whole ride and it was also nice and cool. We rode a ton of rides and one of the best part was getting to the front of the line because of the wheelchair. It was a fun and exciting first day in Disneyland!!

Our Little Family in front of the castle..
(you can definitely tell it was hot by looking at how bad me and Emmies hair look)

The kids I guess hadn't had enough fun so they decide to go swimming...

California Vacation Day 3...

We spent the day at Huntington Beach!!! It was so beautiful and so relaxing, the boys had a ball playing in the sand, making sandcastles, finding sea shells and jumping in the waves. As for Emmie she thought it was fun to dump sand on her head, and visit with every stranger on the beach... It was a way fun day!!

After a long day at the beach, we decided to walk the pier (which for me was a little nerve racking so high up and over water two combinations that I hate with a passion). The kids loved it and thought it way cool to spit off the side and watch it land in the ocean yea I know way gross!!!

We ate dinner and watched the California sunset on the beach at Sandy's Beach Grill!

California Vacation Day 2...

On the road again destination California! It was a really boring and desolate drive but it seemed to go by fast or maybe it was because we were so excited to get there. We got checked in and settled then it was off to have a little fun, the boys and Abby went to the Angels baseball game and the girls were off to have some girly time and do the princess thing in Disneyland...

Angels .VS. Chicago White Sox
They had a good time even if the Angels didn't win... Grandpa and Brennick made it on the jumbo tron pretty cool...

California Vacation Day 1...

Today is the day VACATION TIME!!! We are going on a Call family vacation to the Happiest place on Earth DISNEYLAND....We traveled to Las Vegas with a few stops along the way, gas in Cedar City and dinner in St. George at smash burger if you haven't tried it you should it was way Yummy!! The kids were pretty good and were way excited to be going to Disneyland, Hudson was so cute He kept asking are we there yet??? When we got to Vegas we drove down the strip to let the kids see all the lights, they thought that was way cool... Vegas has defiantly changed since the last time I was there not so kid friendly any more, It was funny Hudson said to me look mom a chicken and I turned to look and it was a dancing girl with her back towards us to funny and I'm glad that's all he seen was all the red feathers.... I was so glad to get to the hotel and out of the car and so were the kids!

Travel Bags...

I thought it would be fun for the kids to have something to do since we will be driving for a little while, and this is the furthest the kiddos have have been in a car... So I had a good friend of mine make the bags and then I filled them with fun things for them to do and some goodies, lets hope this will keep them entertained!!! Now if only there were a knock out pill for me to take...I HATE driving long distances!!

Autograph Books...

So I am just a little excited to be going to Disneyland with the family... I made all of my kids autograph books and pens to go along with, they turned out pretty cute. Now just counting down the days till we get to visit the Happiest Place on Earth...

Look What we Grew...

We planted a bunch of different kinds of pumpkins in our little garden this year, and this is the out come. We got a bunch of different sizes and kinds. The kids were so excited that they got to cut them off the vines today, since they have been told not to touch them for the last several months. Not to bad for our first garden...
GOTTA LOVE FALL TIME!!!

Dressing Up...

So lately Emmerson loves to dress and undress a thousand times a day, not only in her clothes but others. She makes a mess trying to get them out of the boys closet and pulled her whole drawer out to find what pair of leggings she wanted to wear... She is such a funny little thing and has gave us a such good laugh. The pictures aren't that great they are from my phone I just had to share them with Daddy.

Her outfit is clothes from the boys closet... Just love what she has done with the sweater on her head!

So Funny!! Leggings, boots and a cowboy hat, what a total fashion statement...

Being such a cute little mommy in her tutu and nerd glasses...

Here she is sporting her dads retro Jazz socks... Gotta love it!!

First Sewing Project...

I am very PROUD of myself I sewed for the very first time and actually made something cute!! I made skirts and bows to match for disneyland for the little girls. They are not totally perfect but I cant believe that they look this good, Thank you to my wonderful sister n law Amy for showing me how. It was way fun!!


And of course a cute necklace to go with... This was so fun to make and it turned out so cute!

Preschool...

Well my little Hudson is finally going to preschool at the Syracuse Montessori and he and mom are so excited!! He thinks it is so cool that he gets to go to school like Brennick but he informed me that his school is a lot smaller than Brennicks.. Hudson is also excited that his cousin Carter is going to be there and he was so happy to see him. He had a great first day and they say he is such a big help!
