They are such easy travelers and they couldn't believe how short the flight was. They did freak out though when they saw that we had to exit the airplane by stairs. It was raining and they were both so concerned about being out in the rain next to the plane. Emmet especially is my little worry wart!!
Chris and Jenny live in Pasadena and they have such a cute apartment. We probably visited on the worst weekend possible for Chris. He was studying for his first midterms. So, Thursday we headed to Disneyland to keep the kids occupied! (They love Chris and wouldn't leave him alone to study.) Jenny and Chris have season passes. Chris studied most of the day, met up with us for a few hours and then headed back to studying. Jenny and I had a great time with the kids. We stayed ALL day!
They can't wait to go back. Emery absolutely loved every roller coaster and especially splash mountain. Emmet loved It's a Small World. I really can't believe how great they were. It was a fun, long day and they keep asking to go back.
Chance and Angela flew in Thursday night. We hadn't all hung out since May so it was so fun to see each other.
We played around some of the famous Hollywood sites Friday while Chris studied. We spent a little bit of time in the fashion district, but none of us felt like we were fashionable enough to shop there!
We headed to Huntington Beach Saturday and had another fun day. It was foggy most of the time, so you really couldn't see too far out into the ocean. Even thought it was the middle of October it didn't stop the kids from getting in. I couldn't believe how happy Emmet was at the beach this time. He just hung out digging the in the sand by himself most of the time. We were there for almost six hours and he didn't want to leave!! What a change from when he was little and hated the sand.
Most of the day the kids with the help of their aunts and uncles built a sand castle. The diet coke is in honor of grandma kathy!
I loved being with family and so did my kids. The vacation didn't last long enough. We ate two nights in a row at Yogurtland. Seriously, if you live anywhere near Pasadena you have got to go. It was so yummy build your own yogurt!
Despite me getting sick the last two days and not sure if I felt well enough to fly home we had a great time. I swear I get sick on every vacation because I finally relax.
