Disneyland Vacation

DISNEYLAND


The famous Mickey at Disneyland. The flowers were amazing.


Taiylor was amazed at the castle. Aren't they so cute?


They loved meeting the characters...Taiylor especially. Cameron was more into the rides and shows.


Cameron thought this was pretty cool.


One of Taiylor's most favorite princesses. She was able to meet three of them, Snow White, Jasmine, and Sleeping Beauty. Look at that grin!


Taiylor was asked to be part of the Celebration parade and loved it!


Cameron like the Tarzan treehouse and loved Jungle Cruise and Pirates of the Carribean. His most favorite was Splash Mountain and Big Thunder Railroad.

SEA WORLD


The famous Shamu show. The kids were amazed until we got soaking wet from Shamu. They were both in tears and Cameron said "Gross, I just drank Shamu water."


They were able to feed and pet the dolphins. Me too. It was awesome!

LAGUANA BEACH


This is why I love the ocean and a beautiful beach. A picture is worth a thousand words. I could sit here forever.


First time for the kids at an ocean. It was chilly and they still loved it. They collected a ton of seashells and played in the waves and sand. I have a ton more pictures, but had to be a little selective for my blog. We definetely have to go back!


Thought this turned out cute. The beach brings out the best in me. Lucky man...love this guy!

Our trip was amazing. It wasn't really relaxing for Travis or I because we were constantly running and doing whatever the kids wanted to do. However, we made many memories and that is what matters the most. The kids loved it and other than the car rides, were best friends. It was so fun to see the excitement they had everday. They got a little worn out at the end of the day at Disneyland, but we would normally get some Cotton Candy and one time even gave in to giving them some Mountain Dew. Cameron was pretty excited to get to drink the adult pop with caffiene. Taiylor loved the princesses and getting autographs from all the characters. Cameron enjoyed the rides. The first rollercoaster we took them on, Space Mountain, was rather intimidating and all in the dark (our bad). Travis and I thought they mayhave passed out during the ride and we couldn't see them. When we got off they both had tears and said they were never going to do that again. They got brave and did other ones though. Travis's parents were able to meet us at Disneyland the second day and the kids were so excited to see them. They had been gone to Yuma, AZ for the last couple months.

They really enjoyed the beach although it was a little chilly. They played in the waves and looked everywhere for seashells. Travis and I loved watching them and enjoyed the beautiful view. Seaworld was fun and we are glad we went, but I think they were a little more fond of Disneyland. Cameron loved the sharks & the dolphins and Taiylor loved the dolphins & Shamu. They thought the Sea lion show was a lot of fun especially because they didn't get wet. We hated the trip to come to an end, but were excited to go home to see Brinley who was able to stay with Grandma Horne. Nothing better than building good memories!
