The kids legs got tired of walking and they talked there dads into putting them on their shoulders. We saw the girls holding hands and had to capture a picture of it!! The little siblings decided that looked funner than the stroller as well

We looked back at the kids in the shuttle on the way back from Disneyland and they were all a sleep laying on each other. They were exhausted after a long day of playing in the park

Me and Clark

We just went on a trip to Disneyland with some of our friends the Smiths it was such a blast. We started out the trip in Salt Lake. We went to temple square on Sunday and watched the movie the Easter Wish it was about 20 mins long which was perfect for our kids. We spent the night in a hotel in hopes we would all get up early and catch a flight. Because we were flying standby we had to split up and the we got to California on Monday and the Smiths arrived on Tuesday. Monday we just hung at the hotel and swam in the pool the girls were shocked they even got me to swim. I only swim in pools that are heated. All the hotels claim to have heated pool but what I think they are saying is they heat it just enough to keep ice off the top. This hotel really heats there pool plus is was warm when you get out of the pool as well. it was relaxing and their grounds at the hotel was beautiful . I wish we could grow some of the flowers they had here in Utah. Tues when the Smiths arrived we let them get cleaned up and changed because we had all there luggage with us then we rented a big white van and headed to Newport beach. I Think the kids had as much fun there as they did at Disneyland and it was a whole lot cheaper. Wednesday we spent the day in Disneyland it was hot but not as bad as I expected for going in August. I can't believe how brave the kids are they went on every ride except Saige could not go on Space mountain because she was too short. Fear is definitely a learned behavior. my kids dare go on more rides than me.Thursday we spent the day in California Adventure we tried out the new Toy Story ride it was cute and of course we went on Soaring California that ride is so fun . It was hard to fit everything in. The kids did great with minimal melt downs . Friday we let the kids swim again at the hotel and then headed back to Utah. The flight home was wide open so we were able to travel home all together which was fun for the girls to have a friend on the flight with them. We hope to have a lot more fun vacations like this one with our friends in the future.Thanks Steve and Megan we had a blast where are we going next.
