October, November, and December...... In Three posts or less I hope


ABOVE: Marlie showing how she touches the sharks and stingrays softly with only 2 fingers. BELOW: They had the kids do a parade around the aquarium. Notice Marlies clothes we had to stop at the gap and buy her a new outfit after she fell in the ocean. We were about an hour from our hotel. They were clearing out school uniforms so I paid 8.00 for the whole outfit:)

Lets start mid October we took a HUGE Suprise trip to Disneyland we didn't tell the kids we just secretly packed them up told them we were going to the state fair picked up grandma and grandpa and headed to the "state fair." Then I said to them "I have a better idea lets go get on an airplane and go to Utah to see Tonya" sounds fun right........ boy was I wrong tears and all they just wanted to go to the fair so we get to the airport put them on the curb and they are all crying (wish I had a picture of that). So after a few minuets life was good again we are on our way to "UT" so we get off the plane and Tonya is there in "UT" waiting for us. The whole time they had no Idea we were in California and right by Disneyland so we get to the hotel and the fireworks are going Caden asks Tonya what are the fireworks for she tells him must be a baseball game. We start to drive around downtown Disney and see how long it takes unitl Caden starts reading the signs that say Disneyland it took about 5 minuets and all of the sudden he yells out were not in Utah were at Disneyland needless to say the screeming was so loud and now they were happy!!!! So we spent 2 days at Disneyland and then we got to go to the beach and an Aquarium. We had a great time and thanks to grandma and grandpa Blake who kept Keiton so we could really have a good time!!!


There was a scuba diver in the huge tanks at the aquarium, and they would come over to the glass and play with the kids they thought that was so fun.






The kids touching the anenemies like on nemo:)



Averie making her best fish face.


Marlie's first beach experience when the wave came to her feet she started to run and well you can't run from the waves so she fell in.


Tuckered out on the train at Disneyland





The giant lego darth vader at Disneyland Caden was in heaven!






Two little girlies enjoying the beach














I think they enjoyed at least 3-4 cotton candys each

Some how Tonya always shows up in our Disneyland pics:) It wouldn't be the same without her!








After we landed in "UT"/California no more tears!!!

Wow, you really surprised them! I don't know if I could hold out as long as you did. I would have been laughing way too hard during their crying episode. :)

Your carmel apples look delicious and so fun. I might have to steal that idea. My kids would love it!
