Some fun memories

We had a blast at Disneyland! Brady was able to go on all the rides (thankfully he grew enough) and the lines weren't that long. Our first ride was the Matterhorn, I screamed as usual at the yetti and everyone liked it, though Tyler was ready to get off ASAP. Then we went to Indiana Jones where our drama began. Tyler got scared, of what, I don't know, and the tears started to flow. We were all getting annoyed and he decided at the last minute he didn't want to go on it... too bad huh, we were already seated on the ride and it was starting. He kept his eyes shut tight the entire ride and really didn't have fun at all. Then onto Space Mountain. Now Space Mountain has always been one of my favorites, I remember as a kid riding on it and having a blast. We had to warn Tyler that it would be dark but he went no problems... that I know of (he was with Austin). Ashley rode all by herself, in the front no less, and had a great time. There were two grown men that were standing behind her calling her brave more than once. She blushed a lot. Splash Mountain was next and a lot of fun

Finally it was time to check into the hotel and take a nap! I'd post the adorable pics of the kids sleeping, but I somehow erased them all (don't ask, I am TORN up about it). We showered and got into our Disney shirts wearing our Disney lanyards and pins, Mickey ears and all (though Ashley's were actually Nightmare before Christmas ears) and hopped on the shuttle heading back to the park.

Big Thunder Mountain was so good we rode it twice in a row. Brady kept his arms up the entire ride!! Ash had hers up periodically and Tyler was holding on for dear life! On the second ride I bet Tyler a Mickey Mouse ice cream to put his hand up and count to 2. I cheered him on and hooted and hollard and wooo hooo'd him up and down. FINALLY he let go and put his arms up, then he did it again, and again, and, well you get the idea. Afterwards we were headed to dinner and then Space Mountain once more (gotta go on the best rides more than once). It was late and we were tired, we did some small rides and were headed back to the hotel for the night.
