Family trip to California

Ok so it's been over a year since our last blog update. I know we are the only losers who don't update our blog. We just got back from our trip to Disneyland and the San Diego Zoo.

The kids loved Disneyland. There was so much for both of them to do. We were able to go on most of the rides as a family. Lauren was really brave, she went on Tower of Terror and on Splash Mountain. If she was tall enough to go on it she would try it. Lindsay's favorite is "Soarin over California". She and Lauren went on it 4 times. Lauren's new favorite rides were Pirates of the Caribbean and Small World. Cohen liked Monsters Inc and Small world.

It was still pretty crowded for the supposed off season. We spent 2 full days in the park and then went to San Diego Zoo on the 3rd day. The zoo was really cool. The kids got to pet goats and we saw some really cool animal stuff. It was like watching the Discovery Channel in real life. It made me never want to go to Hogle Zoo again. The animals were actually active and in their realistic environments.

The last day we went to Balboa Island in Newport. (Mike did not lose the rental car keys this time...) It was a lot of fun. Lauren ran from the waves and played in the sand while I Boogie Boarded. All in all it was a really fun time and we were happy to get away. Here are some pictures.
