Spring Break

So Steve and I spent Spring Break last week at Disneyland! My mom and cousin Brittni came along with us. Cooper stayed with his Grandma Scholle. So we missed him but it was still a blast! And we'll always and forever love going back-it's just so magical and sentimental for us! It was a well needed vacation and we can't wait to take Cooper with us next summer. Here are some pictures to enjoy...

With Grandma and Grandpa C in Mesquite on Easter morning

We stayed at their house on the way there and back

Thanks Gma and Gpa!

We arrived in Disneyland early Sunday evening so we could make it to the last weekend showing of the SPECTACULAR Aladdin show-which I heard is being replaced by High School Musical soon :-{ And apparently, some of the rides were temporarily closed because of an earthquake that happened a few hours before. No, we didn't feel it. But that would've been cool if we did. :-)

Britt's first ride of the day-The Tower of Terror!

(I totally look like my sister in this picture!)

A Bug's Life 3D!

California Screamin'

The Disneyland Castle at night

A Very Merry Unbirthday...

The cutest caramel AND chocolate dipped apples ever!

But I got the apple pie one instead :-)

Mmmm Yummy!

Splash Mountain baby!
My favorite ride!

The 'Celebrate' Main St Parade-Brittni and I had front row seats
The parade was basically a 15 min dance show-very entertaining!

Peter Pan and Wendy

Tiger totally break dancing

How does he do that?

Winnie the Pooh and Tigger too

Mickey and Minnie!

The Castle

After the parade, Brittni and I met up with Steve at the ESPN Zone in Downtown Disney
This is where Steve was most of Monday night watching the Duke and Butler game. He had front row seats, the food was AMAZING, the atmosphere was fun & loud, the screen was HUGE, and best of all-Steve had a great time!

After the first day I got huge blisters on both of my feet :-{
It was hard being on my feet the next 3 days-not fun!
(sorry if this is kind of graphic)

While in Downtown Disney, I decided to finally get us a family established sign. I love it!

Mom and Brittni riding the Autopia

Steve and me on Autopia

We got our faces painted! :-)

It's Mickey!

Tower of Terror take II
Brittni got sooo scared this time. When we were about to go on the ride, the worker asked if we had any questions. Just to be silly, I asked if we would see him again. He said, "Possibly." Then Brittni told him she wasn't scared and he got this really serious and creepy look on his face, stared right at Brittni and said "You will be!" and shut the door. This really freaked Brittni out. But the best part was after the ride, Brittni bent down to pick up her stuff then as she looked up he was right there in her face. She totally screamed like a little girl and everyone else on the ride was laughing. It was hilarious!

The best part about staying till close is that there's no lines and you can go on the rides over and over again. So we went on Splash Mountain two times in a row and we got pretty wet! Well, I think Brittni got most of it. :-)

Space Mountain is awesome!

Winnie the Pooh!

& Eeyore!

My Mommy and Walt, Mickey, and the castle

This is such a cool picture
I love the blossoms on the tree

The place where magic happens!

We're celebrating!

This was the hottest and last day we were there and I got sunburned! :-0

Love this!

The main entrance
(I seriously look SO fat in this picture-egh! :-{ )

Toy Story Mania-Brittni's favorite ride
Steve got the park's highest score that day-so cool!

Eating at the Mexican restaurant we ate at just after our engagement 3 1/2 years ago. For some reason it wasn't as good as I remember it being. And Steve decided to buy himself an apple pie caramel apple since he loved mine so much...
He only ate the caramel part-silly boy

The end of our Disneyland adventures and back on the road...

Sleepin' in the car ride home
-This is totally a blackmail picture-
Sorry mom :-)

B sleepin' away
It's amazing how twisted her body can be

We stayed the night in Mesquite Wed night then headed the rest of the way home Thursday afternoon. We had fun spending time with Grandma and Grandpa and enjoying the nice weather.

Hold your breath for the next picture...

Steve's getting a hair cut!!!
(a much needed one)

Paul and Alysa watchin' Grandma cut Steve's hair

I think he should leave it like this :-)

The garbage can full of hair
He has so much thick hair-it took about 30min to cut it all

The finishing touches...

Wala!

Steve playin' in Grandma's pool with cousin's Paul and Michael

My handsome man driven us home

After we dropped my mom and Brittni off at home, we headed to the Scholle's to pick up our baby. I was surprised at how much he grew.

It took him awhile (20min) to recognize us-especially Steve w/ his haircut

Do you like his cute Toy Story jammies we got him?

I love those rosie cheeks too :-)

Chompin' on a carrot

Our adorable little man

While he was with Grandma he didn't sleep through the night very well so he got used to sleeping with Grandma and Grandpa in there bed. And yes, it took us a whole week to retrain him on sleeping through the night in his own bed. Hopefully he'll do better next time. :-) He had fun getting into pots and pans, helping Grandma pull the laundry out of the dryer, playing on the trampoline, getting over his sinus infection, going to the park, and getting spoiled. But I think his favorite thing is that he learned how to climb up stairs...

We also gave him a Mickey Mouse shirt that totally reminds us of him...

He always puts his hands behind his head when he sleeps-just like Mickey

(p.s. don't mind the water he spilled all over his shirt just before this picture)

That's right!

Striking a pose!
