Disneyland-May

We just got back from 4 days and 3 nights at Disneyland and California Adventure. We went a couple months ago with the Wards and Mica (see Jennifer's post about that trip here). Before that it had been about 10 years for both Thomas and I. We had a blast and especially loved being together as a family. No school or work for Thomas for four whole days. It was awesome. We are looking forward to more Disney trips this year with our Select Annual Passes. So fun. Here is a look at our adventure.

Bella was chosen as a volunteer during the High School Musical 3 Show.  Um Dude? She's 1.  There weren't many other little kids in our section.  haha.

Thomas' favorite attractions: Toy Story Midway Mania (we finally got on it!  3 tries, 1 breakdown, and 1 lost "free ticket to ride" later...) and the olive oil/vinegar tasting booth

Amy's favorite attractions: Buzz, Meeting Mickey (no line!) and the Aladdin show

Bella's favorite attractions: The Swinging Gondolas on Mickey's Fun Wheel, the Tea Cups, Minnie's House, the Ladybug Boogie, and the Pixar Parade

Random pictures that I love

I've been trying to figure out my new camera since I got it for Christmas.  It's an awesome camera that I absolutely love and I have been having so much fun playing with it.  We already had a ton of pictures of Bella with our old camera and now we have a million more!  Here are some of my favorites taken in February and March 2010.

Vegas

On our way home from our Utah/Idaho trip we stayed a night in Vegas and got to see one of my friends, Lindsay, and finally got to meet her boyfriend, JW. We went to a burger joint on the strip- Strip Burger, and it was goooood. Sweet Potato Fries and a Blue Cheese Burger. Mmmmm. I still think about it. We need to come see you again Linds! :D Then we walked through Ceasers Palace and over to the Bellagio to see the fountains. Here are some pictures from our outing:

 

  

If you've never been to The Bellagio to see the fountain show it is fantastic.   They go off every 15 minutes to different songs and best of all its free!   Here is a glimpse of one...
