California Trip & Disneyland


The gang before we left Cali

The cool Cinderella palace

Carter was amazed by the light parade. He was so funny to watch!

Call us crazy, but we went on a water ride even though it was cold. Dad, Chad, and Adam got soaked!

We had a really great time at California. Because the roads were so bad it took us 14 HOURS just to get to Vegas. But we finally made it. Carter did pretty good considering everything. but he was ready to be out of his carseat! We stayed at Circus Circus so when we got there we just walked around the casino and circus area. It was too late to go out and do anything else. The next day we got up and drove to Palm Springs where we met my brothers girlfriend and a family that helped him a lot on his mission. They fed us an AMAZING mexican dinner. Then we went to church with them the next morning in the Spanish branch. Not a clue what was said that day, but atleast it was their christmas program so there was lots of music. We went to our hotel in Anaheim and sat in the hot tub. it felt really great. The next day was Disneyland day and we woke up to lots and lots of rain. We just put on our ponchoes and went anyway. It was nice because the lines werent long for any of the rides and i actually got to ride most of them while mom hung out with Carter since she doesnt like rollercoasters. My favorite ride was one that makes you feel like you're flying. Dont remember the name, but it was great! By about lunch time the rain stopped and it was like 50 degrees. Not too bad! Then we went back to our hotel, slept, and woke up and drove to Cedar City for the last night in a hotel. We got up bright and early wednesday morning and drove the rest of the way home. the roads were much better on the way home and i was very greatful for that! Overall, it was a great trip!
