A Week in Cali

We spent a week in the Disneyland area. Day one: flight, swimming, and dinner at the Rainforest Cafe in Downtown Disney. Day two: more swimming, the Countryman family arrives, and a Tigers/Angels game that evening (thanks Jami for sitting). Day three: another ballgame with the kids and Disneyland at night. Day four: California Adventure and Disneyland until midnight (again). Day five and six: Disneyland ALL DAY. Day seven: hang out at the pool. Day eight: fly home. Phew... we're exhausted!

Brady had to have this hat.


The fire station


Tarzan's Treehouse


I love the castle at night.



Dinner at the Rainforest Cafe. Colby loved the elephants and they both got freaked out during the rainstorm.

Todd and Heather enjoy a ballgame, alone, for the first time since the World Series.

I Spy a Mommy.

Colby loved this ride, Brady was afraid he would get sick. He has my motion sickness issues when it comes to going in circles and avoids all merry-go-round type rides.


Firefighter Colby ready for duty. Thanks for holding him up Brady.

California Adventure


We went to California Adventure for one day. The kids wanted their picture with every letter of California... but it took too long. Colby loved Bug's Land. Brady loved the Redwood Forest, a giant tree house. Todd and I went on the river rafts, and got wet! After going on Splash Mountain the first night Brady decided any water rides were out of the question (we sat in the front and got soaked).

Colby loved the spinning ladybugs.

Goofy's Kitchen

We went to brunch at Goofy's Kitchen. The kids loved having the characters come to their table. The food was pretty good too.
Goofy was quite a 'ham'.

Colby wanted to touch his ears and nose.

Brady especially loved Wendy...NOT!

Chip

Goofy could Macarena with the best of them.

Characters

Brady's favorite part of Disneyland was getting autographs from the characters. He filled a book and a half by the time we left. Colby wanted a high five from every character and to touch them. He would shout, "High five!" until they heard him.
