Happiest Place on Earth!

Way back in May my parents took us all to Southern Cal for a great family Vaca. I'm so behind in blogging it exhausts me to play catch up, but I'm going to try real hard to update the biggies over the last few months. This post will be photo overload - - but here are the main points of the trip..... my mom got an amazing beach house this was the view from the family room.
The kids loved to play on this window seat and watch the waves come in.



In true Thueson vacation tradition it was unseasonably cold when we were there, but we did spent time on the beach- Blake loved it!





Our house was right down the boardwalk from the famous Ruby's Cafe so we took our morning walks out to the Pier and enjoyed shakes there on Mother's Day.


We spent a day at Sea World, saw Lot's of animals, shows and people.


Here are the wasted boys after the long day.
We spent a day at Disneyland, it truly is a magical place. I've mentioned before that Blake loves Buzz Lightyear so you can imagine how thrilled he was to see him right after we rode the Toy Story ride. He was in heaven! My mom gave all the kids little autograph books for the characters. I didn't expect him to approach any characters - -he's scared to death of Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny was even worse. But the second we came out and saw Buzz he asked for his autograph book at walked right over to the super hero by himself - I could have cried it was so dang cute!



We also got the signatures of Tinkerbell, Goofy, Minnie Mouse and Micky Mouse. Blake was an animal on the rides loved all of them including the Matter Horn. That's right, he was just tall enough so we took him on it and he actually enjoyed it. He is my child, amusement parks are his thing :)

It was such a fun trip and Blake still talks about Shamu, the sea lion show, the characters at Disney and of course the rides.

Thanks mom and dad for the memory it was honestly Magical!

Isn't it so fun to watch the kids play together. It's almost as fun as when we were kids getting together. Love the memories. Congratulations on the baby! I'm so happy for you. Love ya,
