The Big Surprise-Part 2

 We had such a fun day at Disneyland! It was an overwhelming and very long day for 3 little kids, but they handled it very well. Adam rode on every fast ride he could get on. His first question after we got off of Splash Mountain was, "How is my gel?" He is so worried about his hair lately. Tessa couldn't wait to find a princess and loved riding Dumbo and Small World. She also loved Pirates. She said the Snow White ride was "a little frightening".



Adam and Tessa tried getting the sword from the stone, but had no luck. Pa even tried.....

 Uncle Mattman was a bit miserable without his girlfriend. We had lots of fun teasing him:)



 Adam and Ma
 Gwen did so well all day. She was perfectly content sucking on her carrier.








 Katy, Matt, and Adam tried to see how fast they could get their teacup to spin. Luckily, Adam seems to have an iron stomach.

 The kids were thrilled to find Eeyore and Pooh Bear. Gwen was fascinated by Pooh.


 A train ride and nursing break:)
 Tessa got to hear Belle tell a story. She was excited to find a princess!
 We watched the parade and Tessa waved to all the characters!


 This is what my shirt looked like most of the day. Luckily the baby carrier covered me up pretty well. Gwen spits up like crazy!!
 Adam watching the parade.
 All ready to ride the new and improved Star Tours ride with Mommy and Daddy!

Keeping it real...it wasn't always the happiest place on earth.

Look who we found!! We were eating lunch and I looked up from our table and saw our Brother-in-law, Jake, sitting just across from us! Eric's sister Angel and her family were down for the week and we all just happened to eat lunch at the same time and the same place! Talk about a small world (haha!) The kids were excited to see their cousins. We bumped into them a few more times throughout the day and evening. We even watched the fireworks show together!
Adam, Tessa, Roxy, Zeke, and Ellie
We ended our very long day with a sleeping Tessa and Gwen and an awesome Fantasmic show! Adam fell asleep right before the show started, so Aunt Katy bribed him awake with a churro (his favorite!). Thankfully it worked because he said watching Fantasmic was his favorite part of the whole day!
