Disneyland - Day 1 & 2


Friday we were able to fly out of Idaho Falls and head for California. The girls were so excited to fly. They never had, so it was pretty exciting. We had to wait an extra hour at the airport, because our plane was late getting in. So then we got to Long Beach later than we were supposed to and when we got here it was so rainy. It had been raining all day. So by the time we got our luggage and rental car, we were all soaking wet. Then we headed for our hotel. We then had to go buy some groceries and snacks for the week. By the time we got back to the hotel and all settled for the night, it was almost 11 p.m. our time. The girls were totally exhausted by that point and slept super well.

Saturday morning, yesterday, we got up and ready and headed over to Disneyland. The girls were so excited to be here. The weather had shaped up and wasn't raining, so we were really glad. We hit a bunch of rides and saw lots of princesses before lunch time and then we took a break and headed back to the hotel for lunch and a rest. When we headed back over to the park after lunch, the rain had started. From that point on we had rain the rest of the night. By the end of the day we were all really wet and cold and tired. Even with the rain it was still a fun day. Kayla's favorite ride was Gadget's Go Coaster in Mickey's Toon Town and Paige liked Indiana Jones. Matt is still waiting to get wowed by a ride and my all time favorite still remains Small World.







Today, we planned a leisure day and were going to hit the beach, but when we woke up, Kayla was sick. She woke up with the chills and then not to long later she threw up. Poor girl. There is nothing worse than to be sick in a hotel and not in your own home. She slept and after a while she ate a little and took some meds. Then she perked up and we went and sat in the hot tub. Then after lunch, we headed over to hit some of the shops at Downtown Disney and see the movie "Tangled." After the movie was over, she wasn't doing so well. She had the chills so bad she couldn't stop shaking. So Matt and I gave her piggy back rides all the way back to the hotel. She seems to be feeling a little better tonight, so I am crossing my fingers that she can rest well tonight and be ready to hit California Adventure tomorrow.

While in Downtown Disney, we went into a big Lego Store and we took some fun pictures.
