Trip to California Part 1

Really exciting title, I know but it works. So in January we took a trip to California. Not just a trip but THE trip to Disneyland! It was pretty last minute but it was so fun. My dad had a conference in San Diego and had asked us a few months prior if we wanted to go and we debated for a long time and finally decided that it probably wouldnt work with Jonathan's schedule and we didnt think we could afford it right after Christmas. The week before he left he asked us one final time if we wanted to go and I told him I would check flights just in case. Well, of course Jet Blue was having a $49 each way special and the very minute I was looking at flights Jonathan called and said there was a conference he really wanted to go to.. in San Diego... the same weekend my dad was going. So we took it as fate that we should go and within 24 hours we had flights booked, hotels booked, van rented, etc. Thanks to my parents we were able to go and have an amazing time.
We didn't tell the girls until that morning and they were pretty excited to say the least! They were really excited to ride on an airplane, until we got on and then they were ready to be at Disneyland.

This guy was excited for his first airplane ride! He did amazing~We flew into Long Beach and then drove to a Residence Inn in San Diego. It worked out pretty well. It had an upstairs loft for my parents, a bedroom downstairs and a front room with a pull out bed for the girls. It also had a full kitchen and a yummy free breakfast. I took this picture because I wanted to remember this moment. Everyone was so happy and excited- this alone made it all worth it.Cute naked boy soo close to crawling: That was the end of day one. Stay tuned for pictures of Sea World, the beach, the San Diego Zoo, and of course Disneyland!
