September trips

Well, we have had a lot of fun this month! Since Addison is in year round school now, we decided to take advantage of the time off. We first went to Jackson and Yellowstone for a long weekend with Robert and Julie. We had a really good time! We visited Old Faithful, hiked around and took a boat ride across Jenny Lake, and enjoyed the beautiful outdoors. The weather was so nice and crisp in Wyoming. Bo had to work a little bit while we were there, so I took the girls to walk around and then play at the park. They loved being outside and wanted to know why we couldn't just stay in Jackson "for a month or two." Oh, to be a kid and play all day!!! When we got home, we tried to get back into our routine by going to preschool, dance classes, tumbling classes, violin lessons, dentist appointments, family pictures, playdates, etc. Sure enough our next trip snuck up on us which threw us off our routine. 

On September 20 we went to "The Happiest Place on Earth", yep, Disneyland! We had an absolute blast!!! The kids had a great time too!  We went to Disneyland and California Adventure for 3 days. It was a nice time to go! The weather was perfect and we didn't have to wait in line for longer than 20 minutes for any ride.

Mia was a couple of inches shy of getting to go on the "big rides", so Bo and I got to take turns taking Addi on them. Mia didn't mind too much and says that her favorite rides were Dumbo and The Matterhorn. She also loved watching the shows. She was able to participate in one of the shows and came home with a personalized drawing by one of the Disney animators and signed by Cinderella herself! Brave little Addi went on the Tower of Terror 5 times and it became her new favorite ride. After going on it 4 times with Bo, she finally talked me into going on it also. Once was enough for me!
