DISNEYLAND!!
Randi and Jackson ready for their Grand Enterance!
With a little pep in their step! Daphne ready for her BIG day! First visit to Disneyland! Jackson and June waiting in line for the Ferris Wheel
Jackson Loving this!Gentry and Roy enjoying the ride!Jackson on the Ferris Wheel in DCA Jackson and Randi ready for "Toy Story Ride" Sleeping Beauty's Castle... Definitely a highlight for Jackson!
He had to be with Randi! Gramma & Daphne getting ready to get on the "Merry-Go-Round"
we tried so hard to get Jackson and Emma to hold hands...Our good friend Catrina with her mom, and adorable daughter Emma!Daphne loving "It's a Small World" Jackson getting excited in "It's a Small World"one tired girl... We really did have a great time! We were able to meet up with my Cousin Leah and her family for the first hour or so, and made it over to DCA {Disney's California Adventure} first for some rides. We made sure to get to the Ferris Wheel that is HUGE! Jackson LOVED it all, and it's Leah & Gentry's son Roy's favorite ride. Then got to the "Toy Story" ride, and Jackson was not happy to get off that ride {he was that way getting off all rides!}. We next headed over to the Bugs Life land. Then we were on our way to Disneyland to eat some lunch!

We got on a lot of rides {kid friendly rides}, and had fun taking pictures and being with family, and friends. My mom works with Catrina, who's mother got us all in for free that don't have annual passes. It was so sweet of her!
My mother was kind enough to take the kids home around 7. While they were on their way out of the park I could see Jackson had fallen asleep in the stroller within the first 5 minutes of walking away from us. Daphne however, was a different story. I found out when we got back to my parents house that she hadn't fallen asleep till 11:30pm. That girl was wired! We had fun through the night without kids, and enjoying Disneyland like we sisters used to! We also ran into our good friends Wes & Kim Davenport, as well as Will Mitchell. We rode the big kid rides, and I sadly forgot where the enterance to "Space Mountain" was. SOOO SAD! I think just for that reason alone, I should get an annual pass!
What do you say?

Maybe we should start a tradition...a yearly family Disneyland trip and all the sisters (including sis-in-laws) stay the night while grandma, grandpa, and dads take the kids. SOOOO fun!

Love the pics of your cute kids.
