Disneyland cont.

Notice the shoes--Perfect for riding rides

After the raft ride in California Adventure

Waiting......I'm not sure why!

Our favorite place to eat our lunch



Oh, I forgot to mention--we saw Drake Bell (Drake and Josh fame). He was just purchasing something over by Space Mountain and Chelsey told Clay that the guy standing by the counter looked exactly like Drake. Clay agreed and waited until Cassie (came out of the bathroom) at which time--she was extremely excited and ran into him asking for a picture--literally running into him because of her slippery flip-flops. He was pretty nice and agreed to the picture but it made quite a commotion and everyone started noticing who he was. Oh well--the price of fame!!

The Happiest Place on earth--DISNEYLAND!

The Dancers

The smokey sky

The Incredibles--aka...Russ and LaNae in a few short weeks!

We love Disneyland--it was a little different this year because of the fires that were close by. Saturday, when Cassie, Carlee, and Cami were dancing--you could see little pieces of ash in the air and it was pretty irritating to your eyes. Then the whole sky was covered with smoke but at least it wasn't far enough down that you had to breathe it. It just smelled like you were camping. This was the first year in a very long time that we all got to go on the rides together--thanks to some platform shoes for Chloe. She thought she was pretty big and loved all the scary rides--Tower of Terror and Space Mountain. Each time we were in line they would measure her twice because she was so close but I think some of the workers might have been intimidated by all 8 of us standing around to make sure she made it!! It was a great trip. We had to take a different route home on Saturday night because the 91 freeway was on fire so they had it completely closed off. We had to go back up through Los Angeles and north a little but it only ended up taking us an extra 20 minutes to get home which was a good thing since it was 4:30 in the morning.

More Halloween pics--

Dailynd was dressed as the hulk but people thought he was Shreik--we should have painted Chloe green and she could have been Fiona!

Halloween Fun!

Well-- the kids all kind of went different ways Halloween night--but everyone seemed to have a great time! Clay went trick-or-treating around our neighborhood with his friends and then went over to Grammy's with us. Carlee, Cami and Chloe loved all the candy they got--I mean, who wouldn't love a holiday where you knock on the door, open a bag and someone puts candy in it!! Chloe always made sure they heard her say thank-you. Cassie and Chantz went to some parties with our "new" president, Barack Obama aka...Conner, Chantz's friend. Chelsey went to a couple young adult parties dressed as a french maid (I'm hoping she'll come back on Saturday to clean our house!!)

Halloween Party

We had our ward carnival and had a great time. The kids love to get their face painted and hang out with their friends!

Lost her first tooth!!--Cami that is

Cami is so excited she finally lost her first tooth. She was beginning to think it would never happen for her and kept checking her teeth to see if any were loose. (It's a pretty big thing to a first-grader!) She finally felt one that was loose and didn't let it go until she had twisted it out--of course we were at her cousin's baptism--but she was EXCITED!!
