Disneyland/Sea World!!!

This is a little late as usual but better late than never!! The middle of August we went to Disneyland for a week and went down to Sea World for a day. We had a fantastic time and a ton of fun!! We flew out of Denver early the morning of August 14th. Teylor was pretty nervous to fly (he doesn't remember the last time he flew) and I can't lie I always get a little nervous myself! We were about half way there and Teylor says "mom I'm not scared anymore" and I asked him why not and he says "Well you know like Jesus and God they're big enough to hold this plane up from crashing down to the ground - and I know they wouldn't let that happen to us - they would hold onto to this plane and help us land on the ground!" So after that thought he was fine the rest of the way and no worries on the way home! We took a little over 1300 pictures so its going to be hard which ones to pick but there still will be a lot on here!!
Teylor feeling much better about flying after his thought!

We finally arrived at our hotel around 10:45 AM - and we had to wait until almost 3 before we could go to our room. So we let the boys play around in the lobby for a little bit and Goofy came through to say hello to the guests!
This was our hotel room! The maids would make our beds every morning and we always went back in the afternoon to let the boys take a nap and when we would come back at night they had the beds turned down with Disney chocolates on both the beds! If you notice on the head board it is leather with the Disney castle and fireworks above them - well the second night we were there the maids turned the lights on to the head board which we were unaware that they even existed! It was pretty neat and the switch also played a little Disney tune when you turned the lights on - the boys really liked that!
This is with the lights on....

Disneyland - various pictures throughout the week!
This was Teylors favorite ride - "Autopia"


It's a Small World

We got autographs and more autographs! They had autograph books and filled all but one page with autographs!
On morning we were able to go to Mickey's Toon Town an hour before it was open to the public and they did a little ceremony declaring everyone there "Honorary Citizens" and we all received a button. Then we were able to go to all of the characters houses and get pictures and autographs from them!



Celebrate a Street Party Parade

We were waiting in line to ride the Mark Twain Riverboat and the captain asked us if we would like to ride with her - so we were able to ride on the very top inside the cabin. The boys were able to ring the bell several times and "steer" the boat!

Fireworks at Disneyland

The last morning we were there we went to Goofy's Kithchen and ate breakfast - the kids were able to dance, play, and sing songs with Goofy and other characters. Several different characters came around to the tables and signed books and got pictures taken while everyone ate.

California Adventure Park
Pixar Play Parade - this was a really neat parade- we all loved it!
We watched High School Musical on the plaza



Us at the Tough to Be a Bug 4-D show


We played carnival games on the boardwalk at Paradise Pier and this is what they won! Thank goodness the lady at the airport didn't charge us to put them on the plane!
At California Adventure they have a new water show called "World of Color" - it has all sorts of colors, pictures and music playing from all different Disney movies! It was absolutely amazing we loved it so much we had to see it twice!



Sea World - we took a bus down to San Diego one day to spend the day at Sea World.
Passing by the San Diego Temple!
