Disneyland!!!

At long last, here it is! Our Disneyland trip! It was fantastic! The weather couldn't have been better and it was so great being there with our family.

Amber, Jeremy, Amber's mom, and my mom all flew down to California and had an extra day at the park while Tim, Dad, and I drove down. That road trip in itself was an awesome adventure. We left nice and early and made a couple of stops along the way. We stopped at the Red Cliffs in Southern Utah and hiked into the wilderness for a bit. Definitely worth the pit stop. It was beautiful back in there.

We all had a great time at Disneyland, especially Jeremy. He was AWESOME. He loved all the rides, even the "scary" ones. In fact, he fell asleep on Pirates of the Caribbean during the cannon battle. Haha. He loved all the characters and his favorite ride was the Pooh ride. I think he went on it 7 times... at least. We also had some amazing trips down Splash Mountain! Check out the huge guy in our first picture! Yeah, we got SOAKED. Dad's favorite ride was Grizzly River Run where we also got soaked. Hahaha. And the food, the food! Corn dogs, Bengal BBQ, corn dogs, popcorn, turkey legs, corn dogs, smoothies... It was all so good! Even the Tiki man and his, uh, "little tiki."

On the way back, we stopped at a house in Tim's mission where he commandeered some oranges and also at a ghost town called Calico. It was... well, we know why it's a ghost town. Haha. It was okay, but nothing like Bannack. I guess we're just spoiled by a REAL ghost town so close to where we grew up. (See below what can happen when you stay in Calico too long...) We also stopped at Colob Canyon and it was a really cool place to explore as well. And Tim got some much needed sleep on the way home too.

Well, back in reality now. It's really good to be home, but that sure was a great trip! Jeremy keeps saying he wants to go see Buzz and Pooh. I think we all do... ;)
