Dancin Disney...

Kelsey's dance team was invited to dance at the Disneyland and at Califorania Adventure parks. So, 30 minutes after her recital was finished on Saturday June 4th we were in the car headed to California. All of Kelsey's immediate team and a good majority of the studio were able to make it. It was a great experience and Kelsey got a collector pin and a cool t-shirt out of the deal.

An Adventure...

We spent 2 days in Disney's California Adventure park. It was the first time my family had been there. We all loved California Soarin and Grizzly Rapids. I even got brave and did the Tower of Terror and the Ferris wheel (which the kids loved laughing at me on).






































Oh Mickey...

I can't believe it has already come and gone. We have been planning this trip to Disneyland for well over a year and with a delay (so we could go with Kelsey's dance team in June rather than going last fall). We finally made it.
We had a 5 day park hopper pass and put them to good use. From sun up to sun down we lived at the park. It really was alot of fun and I am sure we rode every ride (or at least it feels like it).
Chase faced his fear, "Big Thunder Mountain Railroad". At Disneyworld it was too much for him and he stopped going on all rides (of course he was on ly 5 then) But, he loved it at Disneyland. Sean was super brave and went on every ride he was tall enough for and walked away with some cool toys from the Indiana Jones and Star Wars stores. Kelsey was able to dance at both parks was able to meet up with some dance team friends and ride some rides with them.

Beaches of fun...

Are we going to the beach? When are we going to the beach? I don't want to go to Disneyland...Let's go the beach. This is what I heard from Sean until we finally got him to the beach.
We were in Newport Beach and the kids all loved it! It was a much needed break from running around and the weather was great. We spent the day in the water, building sand castles and forts and looking for sea shells. Oh yeah...and we buried all the kids. Funny though they thought it was so much fun being buried and I was just glad to have them all in one place :).
