I know we go to Disneyland too much, but where else can you go with two little children? We really enjoy it and it is so fun to watch the magic in the kids' eyes. We always go and walk through the gardens by the Disney resorts and Isaac loves to look into the Neverland Pool. One day I would love to stay at a resort just to capture the full Disney experience.
Isaac is really starting to understand if things are scary and he is finally tall enough to ride some of the bigger rides (with some added shoe help). He was just barely below the 40" marker so we put cardboard in his shoes to give him that extra little help. So glad we did because we were able to take him on Splash Mountain and Soarin over California for the first time. He absolutely loved Soarin and enjoyed Splash Mountain. His very first time we were in the front of the boat and so I just held on to him from the 2nd seat. Sarah did much better this time and didn't cry when we took her on every ride.
It was fun to meet up with our friends Jordan and Anne from SLC. They have 2 kids about the same age and so Isaac enjoyed playing with Harrison, big H. The boys are both into Star Wars so they really enjoyed the Jedi show. We tried to get them to be chosen as a Jedi, but I think they are still a little too young.
I love going to Disneyland in October because of all the Halloween decorations.
They decorate it so cute and they have a wonderful area by Big Thunder Railroad where there is a petting zoo and amazing pumpkin carvings and Woody makes frequent appearances.
We were also able to get some tickets for the new show, World of Color, in California Adventure. It was really amazing and even though we didn't have the best seats we were still able to see almost everything. It is a water show, similar to the one in Vegas, but they have colored lights in the water and do scenes on the water from Disney shows.
Isaac was so funny the one day and decided to take some polished rocks and put them in his pocket before we paid for them. We didn't know he did this until we got back to the hotel and found him playing with them under the covers. We asked him about it and we told him we had to take them back. The next morning I got him dressed and the first thing he tells me is that his shorts don't have pockets in them. He is too smart! When we took them back and made him tell the lady he was sorry she gave him a button instead. Well I don't think he learned that lesson!
Of course we hit the beach on the last day and had a wonderful time.The weather was so hot for us so it was nice to relax in the sand and put our feet into the water. Isaac has absolutely no fear of the water and would run into all the waves and down the shore and after the seagulls and you get the picture.
