the big, big park!

we have been trying to make it to disneyland for two years now and finally got the chance! as soon as we pulled in the parking lot asher got very excited and started talking about the "big, big, park!" i have to admit, it was more stressful than i had imagined, but we had a good time. asher's favorite ride hands down was the jungle cruise. we went on it about eight times. he also LOVED the electric parade.


this photo was taken on the catepillar ride at california adventure, which i believe is the SLOWEST roller coaster on earth.


the jungle cruise, where asher perfected his impression of an elephant

this was my brilliant family's gift to us for addi's first birthday. this way, everytime we go to disneyland as a family addi can be part of it!
(i had to use my computer-hacking skills to remove our last name from the photo)

I can't believe I forgot to look for Addi's brick! I'm glad you all had a good time. It was fun to see you there!

It looks like you guys had a blast. So, was this the right age for Disneyland or would you recommend we wait with our little ones? By the way, you look too cute to be at Disneyland. I always look like a wreck.

You are probably wondering who in the world K-Kill is. Hahaha, I didn't realize I published my comment from Kenny's account. Maybe we should change his name, he kinda sounds like a serial killer.

ha! i was trying to figure out who the serial killer was so i was relieved when i read your comment! i'd probably wait a bit... 2 or 2 1/2 maybe?

It looks like you guys had so much fun! Did you ever get the pictures that I took of Addi's brick? I love Ashers face in all of the pictures...he looks like he's in love!

What cute pictures! Asher is so dang cute. I love Disneyland, that's great you guys had such a good time. I'm impressed by your hacking skills. That is really neat that you have a brick with Addi's name in Disneyland.

I love Asher's face in the third photo. You can tell he is having the time of his life.

We LOVE Disneyland! I'm glad you had fun! The brick is such a great idea! I'll have to look for it next time we're there.

Mindi! Mindi! Don't even ask me how I found your blog- it shows how really pathetic my afternoon has been while being completely unproductive, but I'm happy I found you! I have thought about you a lot and I heard from Sharla Fewkes (she's in my ward) that you guys had moved back. I'd love to hear from you and hear how things are going! It looks like you are doing well and your little boy is so darling!
