Disneyland!!!

Our family went to Disneyland the end of October and had a wonderful time. We invited my mom and dad to go with us and I really think the kids enjoyed having Grandma and Grandpa there. We totally ran them ragged but I think they had a great time. The kids loved the rides and we all enjoyed all the wonderful Halloween decorations at both Disneyland and California Adventure. Disneyland always goes all out, no cutting corners for them.
The boys loved the Grizzly River Rapids and rode it several times. I think they wanted to get as soaked as possible.

We all love the new Toy Story Mania Ride, it was very fun and we all could ride it so that was a big plus. You collect points by playing these 3-D arcade games as you go through the ride. It was so fun, I could have ridden it all day long. We also like to see who could get the highest score. By the end Bryan and my dad were by far the best and they wouldn't let us forget it.

The teacups was Kate's favorite ride and she always insisted they get in a pink one. You should have seen her face it was priceless. She had the biggest grin ever. Of course Dad did the spinning and according to Kate he needed to go much, much faster.

We were also very lucky to have our niece Whitney drive up from San Diego one of the days. We miss her and loved having her spend the day with us.

We enjoyed the awesome Halloween Screams Fireworks show, the Disney parade and the Pixar Parade. I think Kate really enjoyed the parades, you should have seen how cute she was waving at the characters and dancing, it was truly priceless.

The boys got to finally attend the Jedi Training Academy and fight Darth Vader, how cool is that. It was definitely one of their highlights of the trip.
