Recently, our family had the opportunity to go to California. What a trip it was!
The highlight was Disneyland and California Adventures. It truly is the happiest place on earth! Our only complaint is that we wished we could stay longer. The last time that us girls visited was when we were the wee age of three. So it was like a whole new experience for us.
Here we are at the Castle!
That sword just wouldn't budge!
The family with Minnie Mouse.
Our nephew Jake and our Brother Doug @ the Matterhorn. Think Jake can take on the beast?
Our nephew Ben on the Tom Sawyer boat ride. Just look at that smile!
Here is Lindsey with Cinderella's fairy godmother. That girl was walking in the clouds after that!
And here is Mr. Ben, Heather, Jasmine, and our brother Doug. I don't know about you but Ben doesn't look that impressed.
And here is our nieces Lindsey and Maggie with Sleeping Beauty. She turned out to be our favorite princess of our whole Disneyland experience. Instead of just posing for a quick picture, she spent several minutes talking and interacting with the girls. She IS a true princess.
Well, there is the first portion of our trip. We will update shortly with the second leg of our adventure that includes Seaworld.
The first thing we did straightway was to head on over to the dolphin and beluga whale show. We were forewarned that to sit in the first twelve rows meant a soaking. It is called the "soak zone" after all. We just thought it was hyped up and were expecting to get wet like one does on a water ride. Au contraire! We had a grand time regardless. It was actually kinda fun to see the dolphins and beluga whales splashing everyone.
In addition to Seaworld we visited the San Diego Temple. Each time we visit a temple the spirit never fails to bear witness to our souls of the truthfulness of the gospel.
Well, there it is. Our family trip. We had such a wonderful time going on this little adventure with the people that mean so much to us. This will most certainly be a "remember when?" moment in the years to come.
