Disneyland Again (Day 2)

We started day 2 in California Adventure!

Now that's how you do a rope drop!
Our first task of the day was Guardians of the galaxy.  We love this ride so much!  We were the very first in line and we got to follow the Guardians dude all the way through the queue to start the day:).


 Incredicoaster was awesome!  We made sure to ride it twice.

A new thing for today was sharing a Num Num Cookie.  It was warm and gooey and Mason got it all over himself:).

This is where I would put a picture of us riding the Radiator Springs Racers.  We usually ride this single rider and end up in different cars so we can't get a family picture.  Today we got a fast pass so we could all ride together and be in the same photo.  Well, we had a blast but our ride got stopped just as we were finishing up and by the time we could get off  and check out our pic, it had flashed past and was gone forever:(.  It happens.  Carsland is my favorite!  I love everything about it.

Mater's Junkyard Jamboree is so cute!  Our favorite part is when he speaks Spanish in his hill billy accent.  It had us smiling!
One crazy thing that happened today...we stopped by Ghirardelli to get our free chocolate and no one was passing them out.  We stopped again to see if it was a fluke and still no chocolate!  Good thing we popped in the night before.  Also, Mason picked a Churro for his snack today but I didn't think to take a picture.  We also watched Turtle Talk with Crush.  It was new for him.  I guess the other boys always talk us out of it so we didn't realize he had never seen it!
Mason told me I didn't do this right.  I guess I am supposed to get the right angle so it looks like he is actually flying??



Mason edited this one.  Is it any more believable than mine?

To Infinity and Beyond!

Mary Poppins returns.  We saw the show but were bored to death.
Another highlight!

Another new thing we have never done, ride the trolley.  It was a short little ride to the front of the park but it counted!
We rode all the other rides in the park but I only documented what I like to call The Big 3...Guardians, Cars and Incredicoaster!  We walked back to our hotel for some Pizza Hut followed by a little hot tubbing.  It was a great day:).

On Top of the World

I have never been a runner. I have grown up around runners. My dad has run 7 or 8 marathons. My mom has run 2. My husband ran one 7 years ago. I have always cheered from the sidelines and wondered why in the world anyone would EVER do something like that. It is just plain ridiculous. In my quest to get rid of the after math of 2 pregnancies in a years time I decided to step my workouts up a bit. I am a really good walker. I would much rather walk 4 miles than run 1 but I needed to burn more calories. So, running it was. I decided if I mostly walked with some intermittent running that would help. I started out running the downhill portions of my 2 mile loop. Pretty soon I would walk my 2 miles, put Mason down for a nap and run a few loops in the park. About a month ago, Russell challenged me to run the full 2 miles. He pushed the baby stroller while we ran. I was not very conversational , but I did it! I was so proud of myself. I incorporated that 2 mile run into my wor...

Family Pictures

These are the photos that lovingly adorn my entry way welcoming the world to our home. Stockton was 3, Douglas was 7 and Russell and I were somewhat younger than we are now. For pretty obvious reasons it was time to get a new picture on the wall.  I REALLY hate the whole process of family stress  pictures.  Everyone needs recent haircuts, clothes need to be clean and somewhat matching.  A location needs to be chosen, a poor sucker has to accompany us to snap the shots, no runny noses or cold sores can be present, Mason must be happy, Stockton must be agreeable and Douglas and Russell must be supportive.  So, over the weekend I forced my family to humor me and get this HUGE feat over with.  I am pretty happy with the results. Of course, for every good shot there are about 10 not so good ones!  You try and make a toddler hold still and smile nice!  My nephew, Jordan, asked his mom why I got to be in charge.  I told him i...

Arizona

Our love of baseball has taken us on some of our coolest family vacations.  Last week, Douglas' team played in the Triple Crown Spring Training tournament.  We decided to cash in our sky miles so all of us could go cheer him on.  A toddler on my lap for a 2 hour flight was a little more enticing than enduring a 12 hour roadtrip, each way.  Douglas wasn't too sad that he missed the team travel in a 16 passenger van.  Can you imagine it?  8 teenage boys...together...lauging....texting...stinking.  No thanks!  His coaches are saints! As seems to always be the case, travel day was hectic.  Watching our family go through airport security must be somewhat entertaining.  There are the Ipods, the belts, the shoes, the stroller, the laptop, the portable DVD player, the camera, the sippy cup, the blanket....followed by the howls of a little boy who got his fingers pinched when the stroller collapsed on him as we tried to contain him to...
