the happiest place on earth...

Last week we went on a fun 5 day trip to Disneyland. Preston won the trip for work and we were so excited to get one last vacation in before baby #3 joins our family. Preston's brother, Shaun, and his family were able to go too, the kids all had a great time together! They were very good kids! We had a 5 day hopper pass, so we spent a good part of the days at the park and did some swimming and relaxing the remainder of the time. We stayed at the Grand Californian hotel and we loved it. It was a really fun week, we are very lucky to have such a hard working guy around like Preston.
beware LOTS of pictures....
Just some random family pictures, I will include this...Me, 32 weeks GREAT with child!
Breakfast with the Princesses, we loved this, it was included in the package, but I might consider paying for it next time we go!

Me and the kids waiting for the parade
Katelyn did this little Star Wars training camp thing. Here she is fighting humongous Darth.


Just of few of the characters, we hit the jackpot with the characters this time, the kid's little autograph books are very full. Preston had to go with Tate to most the characters until he realized they were nice.
Katelyn inappropriately touching Tigger
again, kinda innappropriate with Goofy! Goof looks very uncomfortable. And the other people are not with us! they make for a way good picture though!


This cute little Minnie Mouse really liked Tate. After meeting her, Tate wasn't so afraid of the characters.
inside Minnie's house
Tate on the Merry-Go-Round. The lines were super short so we got to on all the rides we wanted. Katelyn loved Splash Mountain and Tate loved Pirates...we all love It's a small world!

That is it...I have a billion more, but I doubt you want to see them all. And this post has taken me enough time.
