California Trip, Part 2

We arrived home late last night, and we are so glad to be home. We had a wonderful time on our vacation, but it is so nice to be home and comfortable with your surroundings. Plus it is good to sleep in our own bed!!!

Let's see, well on Saturday Doug and I woke up not know what we were going to do that day. We had been contemplating about going to Disneyland the entire trip, and that morning we looked at eachother and decided that we should just go! So, we did! We hurried and packed everything up and headed to Disneyland for the day! We are so glad that we went because we had such a fun time. We were a little nervous that Noah was going to be fussy, but then we remembered how good he was at Seaworld, so we were pretty confident that he would be good...and he was!! He was so good! He was able to go on a lot of rides and he thoroughly enjoyed himself, although he did not like the characters at all, which is understandable. I would be scared too if I didn't know what they were! We got that pass that allowed us to go to both parks, so we went back and forth so that we could enjoy everything. I think our favorite ride is definitely Screamin', the roller coaster in California Adventure. That ride is AWESOME! Doug and I took turns going on it a number of times. We were able to go on a lot of rides because we were able to get the single rider passes, which meant we could go to the very front of the line on pretty much every ride. The firework show in the evening was amazing and Noah was so fascinated with it...they play music throughout the whole park and the fireworks go along with the music...it was so neat! It was definitely a wonderful day that I will always remember!

Yesterday we went to the Newport Beach Temple, which is absolutely beautiful! Then we went to the beach for a little while and got some pictures of Noah walking in the sand. If we would have let him, he would have went and jumped right in, but we were pretty cautious and held on to him the entire time. Here are my favorite pictures from the beach:

Then, to top off the trip, we went to The Cheesecake Factory! Mmmmmm..... It was sooo... good!!! They need to build one here for sure! Hopefully that will happen soon :).

Check out the below album to see the rest of the pictures from our trip (at the bottom). It was definitely a trip that I will always remember!!!
