Disney Land Trip

My sister Wynne returned from serving a mission in Brasil and my parents made sure to get seasons passes to Disney Land  when they went in January so they could take her when she got back. Basically my whole family ended up going to Disney Land and we were able to go as well.


Christopher was busy studying so we went down a week early to see my family and give him some space and time to focus.  We were able to spend a day or so with Christopher's sister and Mason loved being able to see his cousins. We played at different parks and of course spent time on the trampoline.


At my parents house Mason got to cook with Grammie, which involved flour all over the counter and floor when Mason turned the mixer on too early, and him eating a ton of cookie dough.


We also went to Fairytale Town, a couple parks, helped around the house, chased Grammie and Paka and played lots with cousins again!










We also had a couple great dinners for Christopher's birthday and a cake that Mason helped me make.


Disneyland was quite the adventure for sure. We drove down at 3 am which meant Mason was exhausted the whole day, so he was grumpy anytime we had to wait in line. But he loved all the rides and had a hard time watching the rides going without him being on them.






He would see other people riding and say, "Me turn." He cried when he had to get off any ride so I guess that means he really liked them.



Mason loved feeding Christopher his water and then drinking some himself which made it nice that I didn't have to worry about him getting enough to drink.

Mason loved the train even though you can't tell from the picture because he had just woken up from his nap.

These fries were amazing and totally worth $7, the only money we ended up spending in the park.


Mason had a "blast" riding on the buzz ride and shooting all the bad guys.


He really liked the carousels and ended up riding it 4 times in a row.



Dumbo was also really fun for him to "fly high" and ride in an elephant.


We loved being able to see Mason on all the rides and watch his reaction to parades, seeing Mickey and riding the gadget coaster.

You can't hear Mason but he's saying weeee the whole time riding and of course said my turn when it ended.


Besides all the whining and crazy grumpiness from him being tired we had a blast with my family. We sorta vowed and promised ourselves that we wouldn't go with a child under 3 ever again, but we had a great time anyway! Thanks to everyone for making it such a fun time!
