Here We Go Again!

If there is one good thing about living in the far west valley of Phoenix, it is the relatively quick drive to southern California. In April, we were able to get a really great deal on annual passes to Disneyland (thank you Mindy for the sweet find!) Kelly's sister was taking her family on a trip there, so we thought we would put those passes to some good use! We met up with them for a few days and had a great time. The kids were so excited to see their cousins, but questioned where the others, including grandma and grandpa were!

Here are some of my favorite pictures from our getaway!

Connor wouldn't let Tanner out of his sight! He held his hand nearly the whole time. He also comforted him while we waited in line for The Tower of Terror. Promising him that it was not scary! Tanner didn't quite take to Connor's consoling!

These two are like peas in a pod! As long as they have their blankets and juice, they are good to go! Oh, and having a map doesn't hurt!

My kids haven't ever really been that into the characters, as far as waiting in line to see them goes. They are generally happy with "hey look, over there is Mickey." However this time, Carson really wanted to see Pluto. He was so excited!

We spent one day at the beach, which is always on Kelly's wish list!

Katelyn loved the "pool" as she called it. She was also quite fond of the sand. In fact, she spent a lot of her time rolling around in it or dumping buckets of it on her head. I will probably be scraping sand out of her hair for a few more days!

After the beach, we went to Downtown Disney. The kids all got some fun balloon swords and helmets. Well, Carson didn't want a helmet so he go a shield.

We had a fun time with Kelly's sister and her family. We did miss the rest of the family though. But I will tell them this, if ever any of them need someone to meet them in Disneyland, we will greatly oblige (as long as our good luck with Priceline continues!)
