We spent four fabulous days in California this week! We got to go to the beach, to Disneyland, to California Adventure, and to some super shopping malls. The weather was GORGEOUS so we came back a little more tan than when we left (which we badly needed). We had a ton of fun and can't wait to go again. Here is our trip summed up in pictures:
Grady loved seeing the hundreds of "pwanes" we saw this trip and would scream and point every time he saw one. Probably got annoying for everyone we were sitting by but we thought it was pretty funny.
At first, Grady wasn't sure he wanted his feet in the sand while he played--but he was soon off on his own climbing up the lifeguard tower!

We loved the beach.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? I still can't believe this burlap bean bag that is displayed in one of the shops along mainstreet in Disneyland (you can't see it but it does say Othello, WA 99344 across the bottom)! Todd told Grady that they were the beans that gave Disneyland its magic!
He seems too little, but he already thinks that animals are to be shot at! Before we left to Disneyland, he actually took a couple of shots with his hand pistol at a dog walking by our house.
Grady, remember when we went on the Peter Pan ride?...Nope!
Grady excited to be on Donald Duck's boat.
Probably the lamest ride in CA but the kids liked it.
We had the perfect picture lined up, but I had the camera set on video. So there's about ten seconds of some pretty sweet footage before I finally figured out what was going on. By that time Grady had had enough.
Celebrating Todd's 28th Unbirthday! (The second cake he has begged out of family members and his birthday isn't until Monday.)
Staying up past bedtime to watch movies.
Thanks to the Eric, Carrie, and Lillie for housing, feeding, and chauffeuring us. We couldn't have had a better time!
