Disneyland!

With no school on Monday (for Jake) for the end of the first semester and with Jake's broken finger allowing him to miss basketball--we decided to go to Disneyland!!  And we DROVE!!!  We left Sunday after church and came back Tuesday night.  It was a BLAST!!
Star Tours with the whole family.
California Screaming was a favorite for everyone.  Drew couldn't go on it so between the stroller passes and the fast passes, I think the total times we went on it was 6!
Grandma and Grandpa were already in Palm Springs, so they drove over Sunday night and stayed at our same motel (the Best Western Raffles Inn and Suites).  Uncle Ron drove Holland up in the morning so she could hang out with us, too.  It was so fun to have extra family there.  We spent all Monday at California Adventure with them.
The Grizzly River Run was also a favorite and got everyone WET!
Group picture in Bug's land. 
 We always had to check out how we looked in the photos!
  The girls had a blast with Holland.
We did do some waiting, but even the waiting was fun with extra family! 
One of the highlights for us was to watch Drew meet Lightening McQueen!
Drew fell asleep on the bench at Outback before he finished his dinner.  We were so tired but had so much fun!
 
Tuesday we went all over Disneyland--Space Mountain, Star Tours, and the rocket ride for Drew were among the favorites.
 
Despite being the end of January at the beginning of a week, it was still busy.  But we did everything we wanted to and loved it.  SO.  MUCH.  FUN.
Big Thunder Railroad was a crowd pleaser!
 
 I need practice taking large group selfies.
We loved all of the rides!  WAY better than going to school.
Until next time...
