Vacation photos!

in the "big wagon"

Knott's Berry Farm


Colby & Zander


That's me, Colby & Marty on the right. That ride was high! Doug took the picture ;-)

They have a really good restaurant and I like my b&w pics with the lighting.

Zander liked the bread and butter.

And milk in a cool Snoopy cup.

I'm being stealth here and getting pics of my mom, she hates getting her picture taken.

Disneyland

Watching the teacups. We got Zander one of those harness things because he loves to walk. He liked the backpack but was mad when I used the "leash" part. Can't blame him. I know those seem wrong but my kid bolts from me all the time. Thankfully it wasn't crowded so we let him walk, or he was carried. So the backpack lasted like 15 minutes.

Zander posing with Nemo

Lindsey, Mike, Zander and Lisa watching fireworks. They had the best fireworks show I've ever seen, I'm not usually that impressed by fireworks. These were amazing!

It snowed on Main Street!

A happy boy after a day of fun!

day 2

Getting ready!

Me & Zan with Pluto! Zander calls him "Plu-dog!"

I don't know this guys name but I'm guessing he's a relative of Goofy

Us with Santa, I like this one. I have to buy it from the Disney photopass site.

Doug & Zan. Oh, it was REALLY COLD & WINDY on Wednesday.

My family minus Mike & Lindsey, I don't know where they were then.

Love this one! That's Sully, right? He had the longest arms!

OMG my mom agreed to take a picture! Only if she stood behind my dad, she's crazy. :-)

Marty & Doug demonstating their "Hot Set"

Zander was teething really bad so he chewed on Donald Duck's beak.

Tow Mater! So excited to see him!

Lighting McQueen. These pics are kinda cropped weird because I was trying not to get the kids that wouldn't stop mobbing the cars in the pic, lol.

Jacey thought Zan had a good thing going, so she chewed on her Minnie

It's A Small World

I'm sure I'll get more pics from everyone elses cameras too. It was a good time. It was my entire family and my brother's wife Lindsey's family.

*Zander rode It's a Small World, Jungle Cruise, Haunted Mansion(2x), Pirates of the Carribean, Peter Pan, Snow White, Pinnochio, Mr. Toads, Buzz Lightyear, and the Monster's Inc. ride. He did really well.
*We stayed at the park from open to close each day, 10 am to 8 pm. I took Zander to the nursing room and nursed him to sleep each day for naptime and then put him in the stroller. He napped only an hour the first day but he napped 2.5 hours on the second day!
*Going in the off season is awesome. We loved the Christmas decor. Zander loved the parade, which was also Christmas-y.
*There were no fireworks the second night because of the wind.
*I didn't ride any water rides because it was freezing but Doug and my sib's rode Splash and the Rapids ride. They were all soked afterwards, no thanks.
*The coaster at California Adventure is pretty cool but I don't think I'll ride the Farris Wheel again (the carts slide, it's freaky). Soaring Over California was really neat. Loved the Tower of Terror (we've done the one at Disneyworld, which is actually better, before).
*For some reason Wednedsay at Disneyland was way busier then Tuesday. But still, no way as busy as peak-season. A captain I work with went on Thanksgiving day and he said it was so packed. I'm glad we went when it wasn't packed, especially with the little ones.

The roller coasters at Knott's were pretty cool, we loved Ghostrider! And I loved the Xcellerator! Knott's was dead, we were only there for less than 3 hours and we did everything we want. It was free for me and Doug and my parents and Marty & Colby only paid $11 ea to get in. So it was worth it for just a few hours. I'd probably only go back if it was during Public Safety days and FREE. Some of their coasters were really cool though!

We had a very fun time - thanks Mom & Dad!!
