Monday, October 18 - Wahoo! We are finally in Disneyland!!! We did a 3-day park pass so 2 days in Disneyland and 1 day at California Adventure. We stayed at the Portofino which is only one mile from the entrance to the park so we just walked. Unfortunately, we thought bringing our wagon was a great idea but it turned out to be a bust. They don't allow wagons in Disneyland so we had to store it in their storage area and rent a Disney stroller (which isn't exactly free). No matter. We figured it out and had a wonderful family day in Disneyland! One thing that the kids wanted were Churros. Apparently, Disneyland has the best ever so we shelled out $20 and got four of them. :) They were some happy kiddos so it was totally worth it. It was a great first day!
Tuesday, October 19 - Day 2 in Disneyland was top-notch! We hit all of the rides that we didn't get to do yesterday and we were even able to meet up with the Olson's! They are here in California but only spending today in Disneyland. Unfortunately, the rides that they wanted to do, we had already done. And the rides that we still wanted to do, they had either gone on already or weren't going to do. But we were glad to at least go on the new Rise of the Resistance ride together. It was a super fun ride and even better with friends! Around 1:00, we left the park and went back to the hotel for lunch and a little siesta. WE all fell asleep for about an hour and a half before we headed back. Just that little refresher made it so we could last the rest of the day!
Wednesday, October 20 - California Adventure day!! I was excited for California Adventure because my favorite Disney ride is here, the Incredicoaster. I took Ricki on it and the poor girl was terrified! I felt so so bad. She ended up having a headache for a couple of hours so I went to the main street store that sells medicine and got her some Advil. She did feel better after that. We had a great day! We had a crazy experience when the new ride, Web Slingers, broke down and we had to be escorted off the ride. It didn't ruin it though, it was kind of fun! :) We ate in the park and stayed until closing. The only problem came when Ricki threw up around 11:00 in her bed and on the floor. :( I think it was just a little too much for her. It's been a busy couple of days.
Thursday, October 21 - And just like that, we're headed home. :( Ricki ended up being totally fine after she vomitted. We got home without any incident and I found Ricki sound asleep on her bed. It's been so busy but so so fun!
Friday, October 22 - Our baby shark finally lost her tooth! Yay, I was starting to get worried that the dentist was going to have to pull that thing. She loves that she can put her tooth through the hole. :)
Saturday, October 23 - It's time for our "Murder at the Pizzeria" Murder Mystery party! Mom made an adorable dessert fruit pizza and we had pizza, breadsticks, and salad for dinner. It was so fun! Mom ended up being the murderer. It was an awesome evening!!
Sunday, October 24 - Gary and Alexis threw a fun Halloween party tonight. We had soups in pumpkin bread bowls and Halloween cookies. The kids made caramel apples and decorated them then played pin the skull on the skeleton. We had so much fun with the Pearson's!
