Disney Part 1

DisneyLand was such a great family vacation for us! It was a long week and we are still in the process of un-spoiling our children from the experience of it all. The plan ride to California wasn't very fun with Cason on our laps. That boy DOES NOT like to be held for very long and just wants to run everywhere so small plane and small seats were not a good thing for this kid. We had a three day pass for Disneyland and California adventures. First day we did Disneyland and it was a lot of fun! Way crowded, of course, but that week was also California's spring break and probably added to the chaos of it all. I love that Disneyland is so kid friendly. Adalie could pretty much do everything there, except for a few things and even got to go on a real roller coaster ride...which we made her ride twice and the second time she said she was going to throw up. Cason was in awe of everything that was going on around him. He never wanted to get off the rides after they were done and wanted to walk everywhere.
Disneyland is a funny place to me. I loved watching all the parents with small kids....every kid was having break downs all around the same time due to missed nap times. It was comforting to see other parents sympathizing with each other when another child would be throwing a temper tantrum. Happened often and our children are beasts when they don't get enough sleep. We owe a huge thank you to Brett's parents and Monica and her daughter Macady for helping us with our children this vacation.
Well I will stop here...this post is getting pretty long and I have barely written about the trip at all. This might be a few day blogging post....But here are some pictures of Day One of the trip!! Enjoy!
Cason was so happy with the Nemo ride. A little scary being in a very small metal container with tons of people under water for a 15 min ride.....even if it was only 4 or 5 ft under the water.
Finding Nemo submarine ride was SO cool!!!



So cute....even with a bruise on his head
Buzz Lightyear ride was a family favorite
The whole crew in TomorrowLand
Some of the funnest rides were the ones we got to all ride together!!
Cason's first plane ride.....not so fun
Sister in law Monica, niece Macady, Grandpa and happy Adalie
