Sunriver Family Pictrures

 Just a quick update of some family pictures taken in Sunriver.  I LOVE this family! Thanks Sam and Nikki from Your Vantage Photography! 

Disneyland!!

We had such a wonderful trip to Disneyland a few weeks ago!   We were able to spend a whole week in California and do 5 days at Disneyland/California Adventure, a day at Legoland, plus have a day to relax a little, hit a movie, do some shopping at Downtown Disney and then head to Medieval times. The boys seriously had a blast and were "almost" perfect the whole time.  We were so grateful that Ben's parents were able to come with us (especially since Suzanne was really sick and in the ER the day before we left) and the boys had so much fun spending time with Gramzee and Grandpa Paul.  They were such a great help with the kids and the boys always had a hand to hold the whole time.  They were kind enough to take Hudson quite a bit so that Ben and I could take the older boys on some bigger rides..... Then we would switch. 

Be prepared for picture OVERLOAD......seriously!!!  Also, the pictures are in random order.....

The night before we left the boys were counting the money they had been saving to take to Disneyland!

 

At the airport....  

 Our flight was early enough that we got to head straight to Disneyland! 

 In line for Pirates.... Our first ride! 

 I LOVE the pure look of panic on Cal's face on Splash Mountain!  

They loved it though and we did this ride many times.

 Hudson had many rides on Winnie the Pooh....

 Grandpa and Gray on Thunder Mountain Railroad.... Grayson's FAV!

 Waiting for the fireworks to start

 Love this picture!

 Autopia

 Pirates again...

 Dinner at Arial's Grotto.  

Afterwords we got to see "World of Color" in California Adventure.  

I don't have any pictures, but it was seriously AMAZING!! 

 The Toy Story ride....

 This is what Hudson thought of the Character Breakfast.....  

Not a big fan of people in costumes!

 Star Tours...

 Peter Pan...

 Gray was the only one big enough to ride Indiana Jones, so Ben and I took him on it.  He liked it, but didn't really want to ride it again.

 The boys LOVED the Hillbilly show at the Golden Horseshoe.  They were laughing so hard.... It was so funny to watch them!

 Gray and Cal riding in the very front of the monorail with the driver..... 

They obviously loved it!

On the train...

Worn out boys!!

 The store where they spent their hard earned cash......

 Movies!!

 Grandpa and Grandma took the boys to Build-a-bear.  They loved it!!

 Snuggling up with their animals that night!

 Medieval times..... So much fun! 

 Quite satisfying eating all your food with your hands!

 Our Black and White knight!

Hudson was not about to stand by this guy.....

California Adventure started with Soarin.......

 Always holding on to Grandma and Grandpa!

 Tower of Terror!!!

 One of Hudson's favorite rides...

 Hudson sure does love his grandma and grandpa!!!

And California Adventure ended at the ER.  

Poor little Gray.  We made it through the whole day and just as we were about to get on the shuttle, Grayson fell backwards off the railing and split his head open.  (I distinctly remember saying the exact words "stop climbing on things or you are going to fall and split your head open" many, many times:)

 He was such a trooper through the stitches.  He only cried when they were giving him the shots, and just layed there with his eyes closed while they stitched him up. 

 Around 12:30am as we were getting ready to leave, Grayson asked if we could still go back to the hotel and build his Lego's....

5 hours was way too long to be at that creepy hospital.  There were at least 5 people in hand cuffs and many cops, and the CSI showed up as we were about to leave.   

 LEGOLAND!!

Legoland was fun, but the rides weren't great.  I think we only saw half of the park.  They boys wanted to spend most of the time looking at all the things built out of Lego's, and it really was amazing!


We had such an amazing time and we can't wait to go back!!!
