Disneyland (v-day) present

Adam surprised me with 2fer passes to Disneyland & California Adventure for Valentines Day. Adam's been wanting to go b/c the last time he went was in 8th grade (for 8th grade graduation). He hasn't been to California Adventure yet, so it will be fun to take him during his birthday next month.
 
Going on our favorite ride: Space Mountain. It was nice because we got there when the park opened so we didn't have to wait in any huge line. We wanted to go back on it at night, so we got fast passes. Our first ride was Pirates b/c its so classic.  


Adam's first time going on this boat ride resulted in pictures of the animals.

  
 
We enjoyed going on Indiana Jones. I was the driver and a little handicap boy sat next to Adam. He was wearing the whole Indiana Jone's attire. He kept screaming, "don't look into the eye." Then at the end of the ride he kissed an Indiana Jones figurine and yelled "YES" really loudly. ha. He was pretty cute.
I have always wanted one of those clam chowder bread bowls, so we had this snack a couple hours after eating our sack lunch. They now serve gumbo. They had a couple different flavors. We went with the steak gumbo. It was deliciously spicy.

 

We killed some time in toon town while we waited for our splash mountain fast pass time. By the time we went on splash mountain the sun had gone down. We got put in the front and got drenched. ha. It looked like we had peed our pants three times. It was okay b/c we went to our cars after that and got dinner and warmed up and put on warmer clothes.

We watched the parade. It wasn't that exciting. Not like I use to remember. I can't understand why two people I know are dancers there, and why another one is desperately trying to get on as one. Super corny and embarrassing was my reaction. Actually only one person I know dances there b/c the other one left b/c they didn't like how things were being run. They got a new director a while back. They should fire him or her, for everyone's sake.
 
Adam loves Starwars. Aren't these backpacks awesome!

They have the scoring backwards. I am player one! I am not competitive. lol
We had such a fun time together even though Disneyland is for kids. I am glad we were able to do something fun right before Adam starts work. He starts tomorrow at 9:30am. We bought him nice pants and stuff yesterday. He looks very handsome in his new outfit. We are excited. We will be doing more shopping later. Adam doesn't like to shop, so we have to do several short trips. lol. 

My mom just made her cinnamon rolls for Adam. We are excited they are almost done! They are to die for. 

We taught our primary class today for the first time. We just got called to teach the sunbeams. The girls are so cute. The boys are a handful :/. They are cute too though.  My parent's home teacher came over this afternoon. Two of his daughters are in our class. He said that they were excited about us being their teachers and that they told him and his wife that we didn't have any kids. lol. They asked us if we had any kids in class b/c Adam showed them a picture of Christ with children. That is funny that they remembered.


I can't wait for it to get warm again so we can go to the beach! We went to Oceanside on Monday before it got all cold and rainy again.

Love their fish and chips. We stopped here and then got some ice cream. I tried banana nut and enjoyed it very much. I love banana now and laters so that gave me incentive to try this new flavor.

Disneyland is SO not just for kids. Nick and I love to go down there. We have annual passes and sometimes just go down there for a few hours on Friday or Saturday night for a cheap date night and just to get out of the house. Looks like you guys had fun!

When Greg and I first got married we visited some friends of ours who had been married probably around 8 years, and they had several small children. The kids kept asking when we were getting OUR kids. Haha. That is cute about the Sunbeams.
