The Happiest Place on Earth....Day 3!!

And on to day 3....I'm sick of the time it takes to watch a slide show w/no control over how fast you can go through the pics, so get ready for picture overload (but at least you can scroll through them as quickly as you'd like)........This day was spent at California Adventure, lots of fun, besides Jack and his unwillingness to take pictures, and his constant whining!

Of course my parents have to start each day of right......with a diet coke, and with our rooms connected, Ellie was in her glory every morning!

The Happiest Place on Earth....Day 2!!

Way too many pictures.....so enjoy the slide show!

The Happiest Place on Earth....Day 1!!

We made it, we survived, I am here to blog another day......4 days in Disneyland, with 3 kids.....yippee! We actually had a blast......my wonderful parents treated us to a fun-filled family trip, and we made the most of it! I have over 250 pictures, so I thought I would brake it up by days.....This is the day we left, the morning it snowed here in lovely Utah, & took us almost 1 hour to get to the airport. But we made it and enjoyed 80 degree weather in lovely California.




This is our 'family tradition' when it comes to going to Disneyland, well a Margetts family tradition anyway. We always stop for lunch at TGI Friday's on our way to the hotel! Have done this ever since I was a little girl. I think Phil, Kara, & I appreciate and enjoy it more than our spouses and kids. But so what.....they can suck it up and make it their tradition too!

That's it, no more pics this day. By the time we checked in and got settled it was 4:00pm, and California Adventure closes at 6:00pm & Disney 8:00pm. So we left the camera, didn't see a need for pictures in the dark, and partied it up........til 8:00pm that is!

Our Halloween Festivities!

Yea for Halloween, and the numerous activities that come with it.....here is a review of the past few days and the Halloween good times that came with!

First we have pumpkin carving.....the kids did an awesome job this year, thanks to the help of their dad!

Next we had Jack's preschool Halloween party. So cute, the kids stood out on 12600 so. and waved to all the cars as they honked at them. Obviously he wasn't very excited to be in his costume or to pose for the picture taking.

And then the ward 'trunk or treat'.....good times, and Jack was actually excited to get back into his costume this time, and even wanted make-up on.

Then the school parade.....

A visit to grandma & grandpa's. Evan was a bit scared, to say the least, of Paige & Jack's make-up. He hid his eyes the entire time we were there, so funny, and sad.

And finally......trick or treating with cousin's Annie & Stone. And the Riverton fire dept. making a stop in front of our house to honk, run their sirens & lights, and jump out to give the kids candy....so nice, and the kids loved it!
