DISNEYLAND 2010

A couple of weeks ago, we had the opportunity to go to Disneyland with Tom's whole family. There were 25 of us total, well 26 if you include the babe in my belly. We had so much fun! We also got to fly there for free thanks to Tom's internship. So here are a few pics from the trip. Sorry there aren't more but we kept forgeting to take pictures, we were just too busy having fun!
This Addie posing at the entrance of Disneyland! She kept yelling for Mickey and Minnie everywhere we went. She was so excited to be there!


Surprisingly, Addie loved driving the cars in Autopia!

Waiting in line for the Tea Cups! Addie loved this ride!! She would yell and scream and giggle until she got dizzy. Then she would put her hands up and say "Stop! Stop! Stop!" It was so funny!

Most of the neices and nephews posing on Dumbo after the ride! We sure do have a lot of cuties in our family!

Addie met Mickey Mouse!! She would act scared whenever she met any character but after would keep yelling their names and looking for them.

I think meeting Minnie was better than meeting Mickey. Addie even blew her a kiss or two and gave her big hugs!
We had such a fun trip with Tom's family. All the kids were really cute to eachother, and good old Davis was such a sport. I think addie would have smothered him to death with all the loves she always had to give him.
After four days in Disneyland, we went to San Diego for a day to meet up with some old dear friends of ours! It was so much fun, and they have the cutest munchkins! We are sad because they are moving in Japan for three years and we will miss them dearly.
If Disney and San Diego wasn't enough, Tommy convinced me that we should go visit his uncle's sail boat and go sailing with him. Sailing wasn't bad, but it wasn't my favorite. I probably would have liked it better if I wasn't hugely pregnant and didn't have scared teary two year old clinging to me for dear life. But at least Tom had a blast. He actually got to sail most of the time, which convinced him that now he needs a sail boat one day!
By the end of the trip we were ready to go home, but not without one more little adventure. We were sure we could get on our flight home since there were 79 open seats and we were on stand by. Well, it turns out there were also 76 other people on stand by with us and we were the second to last passengers to get cleared right before take off. I'm just glad we made it! I would not have wanted to wait the long hours in the airport for the next flight!
