1st Blog of the Year

Have you ever noticed how blogs come in waves? We realized yesterday that I haven't done a single blog this year. And now I actually have things I can talk about! I'm not sure why the blog loses my interest over time, but it's not like I'm the only one who hasn't blogged in forever!

So starting from the begining of this year (actually end of last year). My wonderful parents decided to take a family vacation to Disneyland and it freakin rocked!
We spent our first night in Vegas at a cheap hotel and got to see the wonders of the Las Vegas Strip. We hadn't been there since our honeymoon so it was pretty fun to see everything.



Once we got to California I discovered that my parents probably got the cheap hotel in Vegas to appreciate how awesome our hotel room in California was. We stayed at the Farfield Marriot right across the street from Disneyland and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a moderately priced hotel near the park. It was really nice because some days we just walked back to our Hotel room for lunch and a little rest since it was so close.
Even with having a lot of little kids walking to the park and back from the hotel was very easy and convienient.

So I must say that my favorite part of Disneyland in December was "The Night Before Christmas" ride. I am a huge fan of the movie so I was pretty much grinning ear to ear while Ali was hiding her face most of the ride.
Actually the best part of Disneyland in December is that it rained everyday! That might sound like a bad thing, but it was awesome! Pretty much every line at the park was only a 20 minute wait or so. And some rides (Splash Mountain) we litteraly walked straight onto the ride. And it was still around 75 degrees.
I think our last trip Disneyland has probably spoiled me for life. I will now be dissapointed when I have to wait over an hour to ride anything.
Rain and all it was an awesome trip that we will remember for a lifetime. HUGE thanks to my Mom and Dad. They are the GREATEST! :)
