I was lucky enough to be able to spend my Birthday at the "Happiest Place on Earth"...AGAIN!
My hubby tried to surprise me but of course I found out! He would have had to tell me anyways since he would have had NO idea what to pack for everyone!
He invited his mom and Jakob to come along and then our friends Kim and Mike came with their daughter, Brylee. (Yep, same name!) We were surprised anyone could come since our trip was so last minute but we were SO happy they were able to come! Especially since this was Kim and "other" Brylee's first time to Disneyland!
We had driven to Vegas Saturday night and stayed and then woke up on Sunday (my b-day) to drive the rest of the way. The drive wasn't my favorite since we had a little munchkin with us that just happens to HATE being in the car! So, my birthday didn't start out the greatest but it ended perfect!! We headed over to Disneyland not expecting to do many rides cause it's so busy on the weekends but we were able to get a few in and then enjoy the best firework show ever! If you've never seen Disneylands fireworks up close, it is a MUST! The only way to describe it is magical! I seriously get tears of joy watching it and watching the expressions on my kids' faces! It's the best!
The rest of the week was full of rides, shows, princesses, treats, and LOTS of walking! We had a few dramatic episodes but overall it was GREAT!!
Friday was supposed to be another busy day at the park so we decided to hit the beach in the morning for a while and then we headed over to Disneyland for a few more rides and the amazing "World of Color" show! Another must! Pretty much any show Disneyland puts on will not disappoint! And if it does, well, there's something wrong with you! =)
Meaguls loved the rides!!
In line for the Tower of Terror!!
The beach...
My hubby might not have been able to surprise me with a trip but he was able to surprise me with this...
I have wanted one of these so bad since our computer is a piece of crap and our other laptop is old and so slow! Now, blogging is so much faster and it doesn't take me 3 hours to do one post! YAY!
I'm not sure what I did to deserve this guy of mine and sometimes I think I don't deserve him. But, if I'm what he wants...I won't complain one bit!!
Thanks babe for making not only my Birthday great but for making my life great! I couldn't ask for a better husband or father for my kids! The kids and I totally scored with getting you!
I saw this on a friends blog and thought it would be fun! So here are 32 things you may, or may not know about me!
1. I love reality smut shows such as Teen Mom and The Real World!
2. I'm pretty much obsessed with my hubby! If I could, I would spend every second with him!
3. If I don't have some kind of treat in the house I feel stressed out!
4. One of the things I want the most is for my kids to get a long with each other and be friends!
5. A clean house makes me a happier person!
6. I get overwhelmed way too easy!
7. If you come to my house during the day there's a 99% chance I'll be in my PJ's!
8. I wish I could be addicted to running!
9. Whenever I see an ambulance or hear sirens I get a little sad that I didn't stick with being an EMT.
10. If I could change one thing about my body it would be my knees!
11. I get bitter about the fact that I have to wear makeup and do my hair if I want to look half decent!! It's not fair that a guy can get ready in 5 minutes!
12. I love having "girls night out"!!
13. I love having something to look forward to.
14. I hate confrontation but if you're mean to my kids you better watch out!!
15. I'm super paranoid about pretty much everything! I often worry about me dying and not being able to see my kids grow up or having one of my kids or my hubby die.
16. Before I had kids I was a daredevil and would try anything. Now, I don't dare to even go snowboarding in fear that I'll get hurt and won't be able to take care of my kids.
17. I don't stay with the trends. I find what I like and I stick with that!!
18. I am a cheapskate! I usually won't buy something unless it's on sale!
19. I love shopping but I HATE shopping for shoes!
20. I usually only eat breakfast on Sundays or when I'm preggers.
21. Even though it's rare, I love having a best girlfriend. Someone I can call everyday just to chat, someone who will come over and just hang with me, someone I can call to make a late run to target with, someone who I can ask advice on and know that they would tell me the truth even if it hurts, someone who I can cry with, someone who I could see every day and they don't get sick of me!! You know, kind of like how Oprah and Gayle are! =)
22. Sometimes I think we should move out of Utah before the "BIG ONE" hits. I also think people are crazy to move here cause "don't they know we're expecting the "BIG ONE" any day?!
23. I still have a HUGE fear of public speaking. Since Preston and I have been married I've never spoken in Church or even given a prayer in Sacrament Meeting.
24. Having patience is my of the things I struggle with the most!
25. Sometimes I think Preston would make a better homemaker than I do.
26. I still wish I had a sister!
27. My Momma is my very best friend (besides my hubby) and if I don't talk to her at least twice a day I feel like something is off!
28. I still listen to the same kind of music as I did when I was a teenager. Sometimes I wonder if I'll be 80 cleaning the house listening to Blink 182 or some hip hop song!
29. I hate busy/crowded places. Like Costco on a Saturday or Seven Peaks on the weekend! I start feeling so irritated and overwhelmed and I want to leave.
30. I consider myself to be one of the funniest people I know! =)
31. I secretly wish I was polynesian!
32. Every time I see a dolphin in real life, I cry because I love them so much!
Phew! That was harder than I thought it would be!!
