So, we decided on Thursday morning (a week ago) that we were going to go to Disneyland with Jeremy's sister Laura's family, leaving Thursday night. Now I like to be spontaneous but driving 10 + hours in a car with 2 kids under 2 wasn't on the top of my list got up there when I decided I was in desperate need of a getaway. So my Thursday was crazy, doing laundry, packing, going up the canyon and hiking to do a photo shoot of a family in a gorgeous field on their horses, and trying to leave with my house clean. It's always nice to come home from vacation to a clean house, but that didn't happen.
Our friend's Pete & Misty decided to go with us, which was so much fun. We all drove to Las Vegas Thursday night, to break up the trip a little for the kids sake, and ours. We stayed at our friends house in Vegas, thanks Clint and Marianne, it was the best bed and breakfast ever. We had a crib for Beau, a comfy bed for us and Pancakes with fresh berries and bacon in the morning. You can't beat that. You guys are the best!
Anyway, we drove the rest of the way to Anaheim Friday morning and hit Disneyland and California Adventure for 2 days. It was sooo much fun and greatly needed with how busy I've been with weddings, families, and kids pictures lately. I just needed to get away so I didn't have to think about editing, cooking, cleaning, laundry, and everyday life stuff.
Us on the new Nemo submarine ride, it was pretty fun and
Bailey loved looking out the little window!
My happy BOY!! 
I was a little too slow, a little too fast, too slow again, and not fast enough. So Bailey is on the Dumbo ride with Jer but yep, I didn't get a picture of her excited face. This is what happens with a little digital camera with a delay. I knew I should've taken my big camera, I just didn't think I wanted to lug it around since I knew I'd always have a baby, or a toddler in my arms, or pushing a stroller.
They we're both pretty beat, thank goodness for strollers, however you decide to fall asleep.
Bailey loved it and got so excited on every ride she went on. She danced in the streets, loved the horsies on the Carousel, and had fun shooting targets on Buzz lightyear with Jeremy. Beau, he just hung out in the Baby Bjorn, or in the stroller and was happy as can be. The car ride was a lot better than Jer and I expected, they were good for probably 80% of the time. I sat back with them for part of it but it all worked out great.
I'm so glad we went, it was our first family vacation with two kids and it was a BLAST!!!!

We went to Disney World this month, too! It's such a wonderful thing to experience the place through your kids eyes isn't it? It looks like you guys had a blast and wore the kids right out! Glad you're all doing well.

I'm very jealous. I would have loved to go, but being newly weds with many hospital bills coming in we didn't have the money to spend on a weekend. But it looked very fun. I'm trying to convince Shawn that Disneyland is a necessity before starting a family...its not working:( But i'm glad you guys had fun!!!
We're taking our 2 to Disneyland for a few days next month and I'm really excited. I'm also happy to see that Baily could go on so many rides, since she's about the same age as Parker and I don't want him to feel left out. I'm glad you guys had such a good time!
