D I S N E Y L A N D

We went to Disneyland last month with the Harts. We thought JackJack was a little young, but knew he would love it. It has been weeks and not a day goes by that he doesn't talk about Disneyland, or ask to go to Disneyland, or say that everything he has if "from Disneyland" or got "left in Disneyland". He keeps waking up with DL stories I think he's been dreaming about it. I have always loved it, so I am so excited to have a kid now because it totally gives me an excuse to start going more often. I am tempted to start planning another trip....


I love this. About the cutest guys I've ever seen.







Ok....so we got JackJack a new toy everyday. We couldn't help ourselves, they were so cute. We need to get a grip but having cool toys to take home is part of the fun.



















Jack's first roller coaster - even though you can't see him, he loved it.








This pic is great - I am so glad that we got him to wear his cute hat a lot. He was totally into the whole Mickey Mouse thing.











Whats cooler than having Grandma & Grandpa there? All the kids loved hanging out and going on rides with them. It was also awesome to get to go on some adult rides and have grandma and grandpa watch the kids for a minute.







Jack LOVED the Disney characters!
















His favorite ride was the Pirates of the Caribbean. He got a sword and would only answer to "Pirate Jack". He kept singing "Yo ho a pirates life for me!!"














Arguabley the best photo of the trip...


Leah was hilarious! She had such an attitude - she kept saying things like "I totally hate this." I totally hate those kids." hahaha


We are so lucky to have so many fun cousins. Jack was so happy to have them there.

























How cute is this pic? Breakfast with the characters was awesome! The kids loved it and we did the first morning so they got a good chance to hang out with characters right away. I would def recommend this. The food was really cute and fun too.







Watching the Lion King on my IPOD after a long day.



We stayed at the Paradise Pier, a Disneyland Hotel. We were just a short tram ride away from the park and were able to take kids back for naps. I don't think we could have handled 3 days at Disneyland without nap time...We REALLY love the hotel. They make the experience really great, I think we are ruined forever. They give you tons of cute free treats and lil Disney things, awesome pool with slide etc etc. We are always going to want to stay in the DL hotels.

My Besties

I have the most wonderful and BEAUTIFUL friends in the world. I am feeling very grateful and sentimental about these girls. They mean so much to me and I love having them in my life. Mama's nights out and girl talk is such a serious life saver. What would I do without you guys? Loves from the bottom of my heart. Jamie and Alicia and I went out to the Spaghetti fatory down town and did the SLC gallery stroll a couple weeks ago. It was a great night out! But honestly we could be on a couch eating ice cream and I would still be in heaven. haha. Til' next time ladies! **I only wish I could see more of my friends more often, but I will take what I can get :) Loves to all of you that are far away!
