Day 3 Friday

Bob got up early to go "Buisness Golfing" this is where I am told they discuss all the buisness stuff while getting some excercise...
Its a tuff job! More pics to come...



My crazy kids have been dying to go swim in the hotel pool. But with all the travel and Disney going on we have yet to get there...until this morning. We have pretty much explored most of Disneyland and California Adventure, but there are tons left to see! But since I am a bit nervouse to take 3 kids into Disneyland all bymyself I give in. they were up at 6:30am with swimsuits on and towels ready. I warned them it was still too cold but they wouldnt give in so here we go...
It was a bit chilly, but they loved it, Ragan wasnt as thrilled with the big pool but was having a blast in the hot tub.

After a nice swim we dried off and got ready for our final day at the park. When I found out Bob wasnt going to be back for awhile, I just couldnt waist the day. I decided to put my mommy skills to the test and take 3 kids into Disneyland ALL BY MY SELF. ( Yeah there is a little bragging going on right now... I am quite proud of myself!) the whole time we had yet to meet any characters or even see Lightning Mcqueen so that was my goal. On the shuttle ride over I was told that I HAD to get my Fastpasss early (like NOW) if I wanted to see the World of color show tonight, so California Adventure first stop. We grab our FastPass and then off to track down Mcqueen. When we find him, we were a little early so the doors were just cracked and you could see McQueen's eyes peeking out, and William was so excited. We went off to a Bugs Land to burn some time before the Big Meet and Greet...



We enjoyed Bumper bugs, and the spinning Ladybugs, even a ride with flicks flying machine. Finally we head back to see McQueen and much to Willliam's disapointment he found that Mator and McQueen were not real! He was so sad, he thought that they were going to talk and drive around. I felt sooo bad for him. Reagan and Alex looked cool with the cars but poor Will just couldnt find his smile...



To cheer him up we went off to ride William's Faveorite ride "The Rocket" (again) and just as we were getting off I spotted Slpeeping beauty so we ran after to meet her. Reagan was so excited she was bouncing. When Princess Aurora finally turned to us Reagan got shy. But she got down to her level and had a little chat and then posed for the picture!


We went back to the hotel to meet up with Bob about 2:00 When I told him how devestated Will was about the Cars, he talked him into going and seeing him again and at least smiling for a picture so we can put it in his room. Sometimes Daddies know just what to do...




The rest of the day we spent in California adventure...



Then we went on the last ride before we got our seats for "World of Color" the giant ferris wheel on Paradise pier. Everone loved it except Alex. She went on Tower of Terror twice, the California Screamer, and the Haunted Mansion with barley a shudder, but this ride freaked her out. Will and Reagan Love to tell how Alex got scared on this ride but they were fine.



The world of Color show was amazing!! If you have the chance to see this show it is a MUST SEE... Blogger wont let me upload the video but Google it. It is very worth the time!

After the show it was a mad house trying to get back to the shuttles to take us to the hotel. We were only a mile away, so we figured we could walk it faster then waiting. The kiddos grumbled a bit, and we piggy backed for a little, but we made it to the hotel at the exact time the shuttle pulled up!We didnt save any time but we got some excersie in and wore the kids out even more!

Ferris Wheels freak me out too but I enjoy roller coasters...well most of them. I'm glad Will found his smile for a shot with McQueen. I can't wait to take Lincoln there one day.
