So lately

Well friends, lately I have come and gone to Disneyland. I love Disneyland. Here are a few pictures that I really enjoy. It was a great trip, especially since it was so warm outside.


Our classic jumping picture. Of course it was hard to get a really good one, but it was so nice for one of the cast members to take it for us. I particularly love that the word California is in the background. In pictures that I didn't post, there is a guy in the background that looks as though he was filming us, I hope so. we are cool enough to be remembered.


Yeah Winnie the Pooh! I will explain more later, but the pass around my neck was particularly exciting for him. He would stroke it and wave it and he did a little dance.

While Eeyore is so cute and sad, he totally wanted lots of hugs. AND when Jared tried to make the joke "cheer up Eeyore you look so sad" Eeyore definitely protested and wouldn't let us leave because he really had a smile on his face.

Of course, Tigger was all for doing a jumping picture with us. It was so worth the wait. I love the characters, they are so fun. It was so hot however-they are amazing. Tigger was my favorite because he seemed the most excited to see us, like he didn't want us to leave.



My flipping sweet pair of ears that Kyle and Becca bought me. It was totally like I was a princess the whole day!

This was right after Katy and I just happened upon free ears that they were giving away! It really was the year of a million dreams. We all decided that it was a year of great things to come. It was so strange that every wish we had came true. I have always wanted the pink ears- bam, I got them. Jared wanted to be in the front-bam, he was. We all were sad that the park wasn't open very long-bam, we once again were in the right place at the right time. We just happened upon some very happy cast member that were giving out passes and all they would say is we got to stay an extra hour and to come back to that spot at 8:00. YEAH! another wish come true.

We obviously were trying to escape, and obviously, we did.

Katy and I on our trusting steeds. Bam-another wish come true. We talked a lot about wanting a specific horse when we were little, and once again, it seemed just as important to have the right horse. Katy's was so cool, it was like a warrior or something.

This was as close as I was willing to get to the tea cups. oh the spinning.
These guys were so cool, and my new favorite characters. They only agreed to take a picture if I would share my rum. They then put on a little show for us. As you watch the second clip, watch carefully for when the pirate on the right almost cracks.




This is us, the ones that got to stay later. It was so sweet! at 8:00 they had everyone with a pass go to the back of the park to a theater, where there was a dance party that awaited us. Here were a thousand people all doing the cha-cha dance together and then they had some high school musical, followed by some grease. Meanwhile everyone else in the park was sent out. Mickey and Minnie came and announced the opening of the park for everyone, rides and all, for one hour. It was so cool! there were no lines, nobody was around. the park was almost completely empty. So Jared, Katy and I went to the new finding nemo subs that were broken down before, but suddenly fixed after hours bam-another wish! and then in the sub, we sat next to a bunch of people from utah. What a happy time!
