Trip to Disneyland

So,a couple of weeks ago we headed down to California for a few days in the sun. I got off work and came home to pick up Dylan, made some sandwiches and get out of town. We were staying in
Las Vegas the first night and we were going to be arriving pretty late.

So the trip starts out without a hitch until....Nephi. About a mile out of Nephi Dylan throws up, and I'm not talking about any old barfing moment, but 3 separate moments before we were able to get off the freeway. It was sooooooo sick! We ended up taking a 40 minute stop to clean up everything. Needless to say, I was concerned the rest of the drive that day worried that it was going to happen again.

We get about a mile from the MGM Grand were we were staying and we hit road construction, one lane for two miles, took us 45 minutes to get through it. So we ended up arriving in
Las Vegas at 11:45pm Vegas time, almost 8 hours after we left. It should have only taken us 6 to 6 1/2 hours to get there.

We arrived in Irvine the next afternoon to sunny, warm, breezy weather. It was so nice! We headed to our favorite place to eat when we go to Southern California, Wahoo's, they have the best fish tacos EVER!!!

I forgot my contacts so I had to wear my glasses the entire time, not fun, I look like a dork in ALL of the pictures.

Next morning we head to Disneyland. Of course we hit the rides that would scare the crap out of Dylan first and get those out of the way. Dylan was only 1 inch short of going on the majority of the adult rides, but that was ok, he still was able to go on Pirates, The Matterhorn, Tune Spin, The Haunted Mansion, etc.

We went with Angie and her girls and they wanted to take Dylan on some of their favorite rides when they were his age.

Dylan was able to meet a lot of his favorite characters mainly do to very good timing and meet a greets starting right as we were passing by places. Last year when we took Dylan he wouldn't go within 30 yards of Mickey.

We spent out last day in California at Disneyland and Huntington Beach. The water was freezing, but what started as wading my feet in the water, ended up with water above my waste waiting for a huge wave to come in and tripping and falling all the way in.

The drive home again was eventful, we drove to Vegas again and stayed and then drove the rest of the way in the morning. Again, Dylan threw up just out of Cedar City, ugh. Jeremy and I are now pros at cleaning up puke.

So, now that we are home, I get to steam clean the car and get the smell out.

Enjoy the pictures, it's always good to come back home after a vacation and sleep in my own bed.
