Quick Getaway...now back to reality

Well we finally found a week to completely forget life and have some fun with the kids. We had such a blast with them in Disneyland.

I left Avery home with Nana and Papa and Aunt Kami. We were able to completely focus on Brecken and Tate....it was hard at first, and I felt kind of bad leaving her. But all too soon I saw mothers struggling in line with impatient little ones, changing diapers, pushing strollers, stopping for naps and I soon realized leaving her was the best decision ever!! We had a chance to really live it up. Brecken and Tate are huge thrill seekers, their favorite rides were the fast scary adult ones....so it was great that we didn't have Avery around. Space mountain was their favorite, we rode it 4 times!! The kids are afraid of absolutely nothing, they just giggled the whole time and I just screamed. We took SO many fun pictures, it was so hard to decide which ones to post so I just threw a bunch of the highlights on here! Enjoy

The night before we left Brecken and Tate both drew a picture of the Disneyland castle...and Bam the next day there they were standing in front of it...I guess dreams do come true!

We met every single character you can possibly think of. Brecken was so obsessed with getting all of their autographs. We got a family shot with every single character and princess you can think of, but I'll spare you the misery of seeing them all and just post some of the classics and our personal favorites.

Both kids got to be up on stage fighting The Dark Side.....Tate had a smile on for the rest of the day after defeating Darth Vader!

Disneyland Hotel...

Universal Studio's...

Sea World...

This right here is what family vacations are all about...forgetting your worries and just remembering how much you love each other. These two had such a wonderful time together and are the sweetest little friends, this week full of adventure bonded them in a new way. I loved seeing them look at each other with big eyes and huge smiles every time they saw something new.... I will absolutely start saving now for our next trip because now I know I'm actually saving for moments, smiles, snuggles, memories, laughs, adventures, bonding, oh ya and not cooking or cleaning up any meals for a week!!!!!!
