Disclaimer: I have made this blog for the intent to show loved ones what we've been up to lately. I also want to one day print it out and have it as a journal for the kids. I am not doing this to brag at all. I just thought this is a great way for you all to see what life's been like for us and what we've been doing. I love to see other people's blogs and see their pictures and see what they've been up to. That's all I'm doing here. Thank you!

Day 5 - Guess where

 So on this morning, our last day there, Spencer wanted to go on Indiana Jones first thing. So Linc and I waited for them to get out. So we decided to pull the camera out while we were waiting. Lincoln was in a silly mood so here are his expressions.



 Lincoln and I decided to go our own way while Jason and Spencer went on Splsh Mountain. So we went on the Winnie the Pooh ride and then waited to see all the Hundred Acre Woods characters. Lincoln was in heaven.
 Linc and Tigger
 Linc and Pooh
 He wouldn't stop hugging him. I had to pry him off. It was so cute.
 The last time at the Jedi Academy
 Autotopia, the boys loved driving
 Linc is a crazy driver
 Spencer walked up to this Storm Trooper and hugged him. I wonder how much he gets that. The picture below is of Lincoln and Spencer at the Star Tours ride. Lincoln loved it. I'm glad we fixed his shoes.

 We walked Downtown Disney and went to the Lego Store. All of these statues and the background are all legos. It was so impressive.
 Spencer loved all the legos.
 I wish we went earlier in the day, but can you make out the giant dragon on top of the building. It is insane.
 Inside the store.
 Spencer was tired of walking so he decided to give Lincoln a ride.
 On Main Street.
 While we were taking pictures on Main Street, Chip walked right up to the boys and played with them. It was so fun for them. He played for so long. A line formed behind us and he just kept interacting with them. It was a huge highlight.
 Donald and Daisy.

 Then right after Donald and Daisy, Dale came up to the boys and interacted with them. He kept trying to drink Lincoln's orange juice. They had the best time.
 One last picture in front of the castle. Jason insisted I get these ears to match the boys.


Our last day was so awesome. We were there when it was so dead and we walked on every ride. It was perfect. We couldn't have asked for a better vacation. The boys were angels the whole time. Every day was so long for them and they didn't complain once. It really was heaven.

Day 4 - D-land again

 This was our picture day at Disneyland. We decided this day would be a very relaxing day where we would go around and see what we wanted to do.

 My favorite sign
 I love these shots.
 We kept bumping into this girl and her frend in almost every line we went into almot the whole time we were there. Spencer could make them laugh hysterically. It was so funny, so after the PeterPan ride they waited til we got off and asked if they could take a picture with them. This was the 3rd time with different Asian girls on this trip that they asked to take a picture with my boys. I don't get it. What do they do with the picture.
 Waiting for the Jedi Academy to start. Lincoln is face don in my lap. Such a wierd kid.
 This is the 1st of 2 times to wait for the Jedi Academy. Spencer was chosen this time and both of them were chosen the 2nd time.
 Our Jedi trainee
 Spencer's second favorite ride. We finally figured out a way Lincoln can go on this ride. He was barely too short. So we tookall the shoe inserts out of all of his shoes and put them together in one pair. It was genious!!! Worked like a champ.






 2 Goofs in Goofy's house.
 Donald Duck house.
 Lincoln's first rollercoaster. He held onto his ears the whole ride.





 We tried sp hard to get this picture right. So this is the best we could get.


 We were there the same time Jason's friend and co-worker was there. So while they were there, Josh, the friend proposed to his girlfriend at the wishing well. We had worked it out that we would meet up and walk past this well and get our caera out and film it  for him. It was so cool. H gave her a gold coin dollar and told her to make a special wish and while she was turned, he got down on his knee behind her and she turned around to him with a ring. It was awesome!!! So this is right after the proposal. They are so cute together.
 Then after we took pictures of the newly engaged couple....Spencer wanted a picture with her. He kept saying he liked her and he would walk hand ad hand with her all through the park. I think Josh had some competition.
 I love palm trees!!!!
 Lincoln fell asleep a lot before we got back to the hotel and this is the best way Jason could carry him. Lincoln didn't mind it at all.
 So on this night we met up with one of Jason's mission companions at The CheeseCake Factory. We had a great time catching up with them. Jarrod and Zulema were married in April in Cuernavaca, Mexico where his family is from. We were planning to go, but so may things happened at one time that we had to cancel the trip. So it was so great meeting her and getting to shoot the poop with them. Spencer fell in love with her immediately. He was again smitten with her beauty. So he wanted a picture with her so he could remember her.
 He was so flirty with her, I think Jarrod was a little jealous. LOL!!
 It was so awesome to see Jason and Jarrod reminising of their mission and sharing stories. We were there for about 3 hours. It was so great.We didn't want it to end. Every time we go to Anaheim, we always call him and go to dinner. It is always so good to see him and now we get to see his amazing wife.
Lincoln was asleep the whole dinner. He woke up for about 2 minutes and laid back down and didn't wake up til we left the restaurant. He was so exhausted. It's so sad that eating here was cheaper than eating cheeseburgers and fries at the park. So we ate here a lot while we were there. It was a block from our hotel.
