California Part 2- Disneyland

Tuesday the 6th we went down to Disneyland for the day. We had such a great time! Thanks Grandpa John for funding it! Grandpa brought cousin Kalista down and we came down with our sister-in-law Tracy and her little ones, Blake and Emily. It started off rough and I was a bit worried because the night before Sam had been puking and throwing up the night before. Normally I would have cancelled it but everyone was planing on it and I didn't want to disappoint. So Sam wasn't feeling very good and Rex was exhausted from being to excited to sleep so he was so ornery. Luckily, once we got in the park, everyone perked up and had a great time. Sam did fine and even enjoyed himself. I was so proud of Rex, we kept just taking him on all these rides and he did them. I think it helped that he had no idea what they would be like! He did Splash Mountain with us because he is so tall for his age that he just made the height requirement! He hated it, but I think he was proud of himself afterwards. His favorite ride by far was the Buzz Lightyear laser gun ride! He had so much fun! He also loved being with his cousins Emily and Kalista. We met my friend Emily there with her friend and her 3 girls, but Disneyland is kind of a hard place to catch up so we didn't get to spend much time with them. Unfortunately our camera battery died about 2 hours in, so I didn't get a lot of pictures. :( Mark took a few after that with him cell phone camera, but they are a little grainy. My favorite are Rex's facial expression during the parade, he was mesmerized! We had a great time! Disneyland really is the "happiest place on earth"!
