Disneyland!

We had a wonderful trip to Disneyland! The boys had such a good time. We told them the day before we were leaving and Camden was pretty excited. He couldn't wait!

Showing off their Disney duds

Snuggling with dad the night before
 We were not as excited for the 10 hour drive as we were for the rest of the trip, but we did a lot of prep work to hopefully make it go smoothly.


We made it to the hotel!

Ready for day one!

The boys were not thrilled with their first ride (on snow white)

I think they were a little overwhelmed with all the crowds
 None of the rides in Fantasyland were a huge hit so we headed to the lesser crowded Toontown to see some characters.
Seeing Goofy




Wes also enjoyed being free in a little playground

Ready to tackle Finding Nemo




 Star Wars is taking over a lot of Tomorrow land and Dan and Camden were quite happy.

Wes did not love Chewbacca

The first of many rides on Buzz


I was so happy and relieved when Wes took a stroller nap!

Big thunder mountain!

Back to Fantasy Land for Dumbo!




Camden kept asking for mouse ears and I was delighted to oblige


A successful ride on Splash Mountain



 The park closed fairly early which was nice for us because the boys were wiped by the end!
 Day two was California Adventure!

The boys loved the rides in Bugs Land


Camden couldn't wait for his ice cream

Mater!

And another stroller nap!




Camden loved Radiator Springs Racers

Wes couldn't ride but was having fun being free

Dan and I had fun too!



Camden was so tired he fell asleep before the last show

No amount of fireworks and lights could wake him


It was 96 degrees our last day and we were sweating before we even started at the park. It was really nice to just hit the rides we enjoyed and the rides we had missed the first day. We didn't feel like we needed to do anything and took the day a lot slower.

Alice in wonderland

Boys only tea cup ride
 Wesley got to do a million rides on buzz while Camden was able to ride Star Tours and Hyper Space Mountain  which was his favorite!


Camden was so aware of the instructions on each ride. He said "mom don't bother everyone!"


Love this little grin

Keeping Wes awake to take a nap at the hotel

So excited to go back!

I almost bought him all the Winnie the Poohs
 We stopped at the down town Disney Lego store and saw some really cool statues


 We took a quick detour to Arizona on our way home.

Wesley was obsessed with the cats and tried to climb in the box with them



Camden got to do pretty much anything he wanted with all his grandmas and grandpas
 We were done and done with our drive by the time we got home but we all slept so well last night and we are so glad to be back home after our adventures!

I'm so glad that you and Dan take a lot of photos. It's great to see all of your adventures. Of course, it was even better to have you down here for a few days. Thank you so much for making the detour! Glad to hear that you all slept so well back home in your own beds.

 Still playing catch up. The boys wrote their letters to Santa on the long drive home. We went to Luminaria with the cousins and had our ann...
