Disneyland May 2nd to May 6th





The Tower of Terror


Lucas had to get a hat with his name on it.






They had a lot of new things in the works at California Adventure. The Cars, Little Mermaid and Goofy's Sky School. They are trying to give it less of a California feel and more of a Disney Characters feel.


Instead of Mickey Walt could have gone with this little guy Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. I think he didn't because it was taken by a studio Walt worked with when doing the Oswald Cartoon.


They were setting up for the premiere of Pirates of the Carribean.


Lance has grown so much this year he even skipped a whole size at one point.


We love Mickey's House.








Disney's World of Color in California Adventure. It was really an amazing show. Obviously pictures don't do it justice. It was all choreographed to phenomenal music. They play pictures on mist of water. They have fountains spraying this way and that. It was really beautiful.








Waiting for the World of Color. While we were waiting Jes and Lucas made friends with a girl Jessie's age from Alaska.







Now we know why Disneyland is magical...it's in the water.




This is at the end of Toy Story Mania....it is Andy's house.



They had a cool show with pictures displayed on the building. The technology and how it all came together was mind blowing.

Rainforest Cafe




Disney's 365







On the Disney Channel they have little segments about their shows etc. They were filming one about Lemonade Mouth. The kids like Bridget Mendler from Good Luck Charlie. They had fun seeing her up close.

Alcatraz


























Muir Woods















This trail through these Redwood Trees was amazing...the pictures don't do it justice.

Happy Easter




Jessica's bestfriend Ryan made her a really pretty bracelet and put it in an egg.





The Easter Bunny brought baskets and books. Later in the day we went to my Mom's and did an Easter Egg Hunt.


It was a really nice day.

Bed Time

My kids are so weird. Lucas doesn't like pjs and he sometimes does this thing where he showers and puts on the next days clothes. I don't know why because they get up at 6:00 AM and they don't leave for school until 8:30 AM.



I thought this picture was cute because she likes to sleep on top of her covers....so she doesn't have to make her bed. I also liked that she fell asleep reading with her glasses on.





They are so sweet and cute when they are asleep.
