California Vacation 2013

This last week we pulled our kids out of school and drove to California... I wasn't to great at taking pictures though.

The first night we stayed in Las Vegas at The Cancun Resort. It was non-smoking, didn't have a casino the condo was really nice and the huge pool with 4 waterslides was a blast... BUT I didn't take any pictures.

The next day we drove to Anaheim. After eating and unpacking we headed straight to Huntington Beach.


We learned something new about Aja though... I have always known she hate to have her hands or feet dirty, and the sand at the beach was AWFUL to her. This is what happened when we tried to put her down:

We had to carry her the whole time.

The next day we went to Mickey's Halloween Party at Disneyland. This is our favorite time to go because everyone waits in line for the candy and not to ride the rides...we skip the candy and ride the rides. We never waited more then 5 minutes for any ride. Again, I didn't pull out the camera.

The next day we went to Laguna Beach and brought a blanket for Aja to sit on so it was better... no pictures.

Since we only went to Disneyland on Tuesday we only went to California Adventure on Thursday... it still wasn't busy and we didn't wait in lines very long.


Alex took Devin on Tower of Terror while I stayed with Aja so he stayed back while Ally and I rode it. Ally didn't want to go on this ride, but was a sport so I could go on it.
Pretending to be scared:

After the ride was over, Ally said "that wasn't too bad". You know how they take pictures of you during the ride? When we got to where they were showing them everyone was laughing. I had to take a picture of the picture:

Everyone was laughing at her, so she says she now hates the ride. My mini teenager!!!

On the first trip to Disneyland Aja lost one of her shoes on the walk out of the park. We found a target and bought her a new pair... she lost a shoe within the first hour on our second day. So, she went shoeless the whole day.

She thought it was pretty funny though:


I love spending time with my family!!!
