OUR SUMMER FUN AT DISNEYLAND, CALIFORNIA AND MEDIEVAL TIMES

Disneyland!!!!! Wooooooo Hooooooooooo..........

This is the view of the park from our hotel room.....

Every year the kids think they will be able to pull the sword out of the stone......

I think I can.......I think I can............I think I can........

I thought I could.......I thought I could......I thought I could......

He is on to me..... I had to all but make him go try to pull out the sword! I NEEDED it to go with all the past years photos of when he thought he actually might be able to pull the sword out.....

He's being so kind to his mother, standing for another photo..........Such a good boy... I've scared him for life I'm sure...... I told him I'd help him write his letter to Dr. Phil or Oprah, entirely up to him which one..... I'm just nice like that......

Oh I can pull this out easily!........ Ok ready to get the picture of this mom??

What the heck? This sword is really stuck! At least I still have one to try this on again next year...

Here she comes down the tree house! Oh wait,

Rugrat: "Mom, do you want to take my picture?".....

Momma: "Yes, I'm taking it right now honey"......

Rugrat:"Oh, Ok, I'll stop so you can get a good one"....

Momma: "NO, that's ok, I got it........keep walking...."

Seriously girlfriend? Move it before those boys push your rear out of the way...... Actually they were so patient.....

but honestly.......what do you expect? It is the HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH after all..

Just ask all the mom's with the kids dressed up in little Cinderella costumes who are screaming at the top of their lungs, stomping their feet or my all time favorite, throwing themselves on the ground for the crowds to walk around them. While the mother yells "GET YOU A** UP NOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW!" With a look of anything but JOY on her face......

Oh Ya, it IS the Happiest Place on Earth......

Tree house fun....

Another breakfast......... and...YES, it IS all about the food......... (In fact it is a must to get the HUGE turkey leg in the park..........sighhhhhhhh.......yep, it happened again, my butt just grew thinking about it!)

Sorry son.....for catching a bit of a nerdy look on your face (I hate it when I get this goofball looks when the camera snaps just right.....well, ok, I always look like a goofball or nerd, take your pick, but I'm just sayin'....)...... I had to put this photo on here because it's crazy how close the bird got to his plate. In fact I was watching and didn't want to move so I didn't get the shot but he actually ATE leftover pancakes off of the plate! Crazy little guy! It was too cute. I mean he was polite and did wait until he was done eating....

You can see him wondering if it would be okay to come back for seconds....

Breakfast with the characters is so much fun.... Well, it's a lot MORE fun now that the girls are older and don't freak out when they see them..... Well, lets just say The Mad hatter still won't come to our table after the shrill scream of my little blond haired chicken girl a few years back. In fact I think if The Mad hatter did try approaching the table, even know, my rugrat would hit the floor running. I'm sure she would give some urgent reason like the food wasn't agreeing with her tummy and she had to run to the bathroom. It wouldn't be because she was afraid...... but we know......we are on to you little sista' we know you are still a big chicken under that 11 year old skin!...... She thinks Mad hatter is just ugly and she isn't sure if it's a boy or a girl and that scares her..... LOL

YES, I AM awake. YES, I AM tired..... My eyes are open, well kind of.....I was trying to wake up.....

What I'm really wondering is what the heck the lady behind us is doing.

Is she showing us what food she is eating for breakfast? Is her husband tossing food into her mouth from across the room? Or is she just shocked to see me, the celebrity that I am (not) there in the restaurant? I'm trying to remember if she ran over to get my autograph...... hmmmmmmm.... my brain is going back in time... ..hmmmmmmm. ....autograph....autograph......autograph..... I'm going to have to go with a big NO on that one....

She probably saw the Mad Hatter.....

My "tired" Hunk and the three (sniff sniff, one is missing....WAAAAAAAAAA, ok, I'm alright now) rugrats waiting to go chow down on the buffet with the characters....

Our cute little family....... MINUS ONE BIG RUGRAT......

Awe.......I can feel the love..........

Done for the day.......back to the hotel........ "and the ants go marching two by two hurah.......hurah....."

"Daddy, do you think we can go to the swimming pool? Disneyland was great but my favorite part about the hotel is the pool.." HONESTLY, what is up with that?

It was my son's 16th birthday and we have always done the Disneyland and Medieval Times trip for our family vacation since the kids were small. My boys LOVED Medieval Times so we thought it would be a great time to embarrass him..........errrrrrrmmmmmmm... I mean HONOR him by having him "Knighted" on his birthday. I knew he wasn't going to let me get away with this much longer... so I went for it! He was a great sport for his Momma!

Over here birthday boy! Look at your Momma! You cute little boy who can't be 16, who just turned 6 last week. Who shouldn't be a Junior in high school, I was just walking you to Kindergarten.... sighhhhhhhhhhh.......sniff........sniff......... my babies are growing up way too fast! Ok, sorry, I'll be okay, don't worry about me...... WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Oh ya.......that's our Knight. Mr. BLUE...... come to Momma..... Kidding!!!.....Kidding!!! (kind of) LOL, I'm probably old enough to be his Momma.......

Aren't they beautiful? OK......so is the princess..

Ha Ha Mr. Green Night..... our Blue Knight was the winner!!... But can you pose with us for a photo?

Now this red and yellow knight was a silly guy....... He would pop into photo's the girls were taking with other knights..... He was fun!

Oh ya, there he is!....... Thumbs up Dude! He really was a pretty fun kid though. The girls were laughing at him........ which only egged him on....... Maybe he is related to my Hunk...

Dashing.........

Here is our Man...........

There I am sitting upon my throne. They asked me at the last minute to fill in for the Princess............ Okay, so it's not me.......

It's the King and the princess.......watching her man go to battle against the other knights. I wonder what it was like in Medieval times. Can you imagine your husband fighting possibly to his death? Ummmmmm no thanks. The eating with your hands was kinda fun and a man did seem to enjoy yelling out "come her wench" to our waitress... shock and awe moment for many.......... I don't know what got in to him.......maybe it was the Budweiser..... I could be wrong........it happens from time to time....... shhhhhhhh dont' tell my family.....


Hope you enjoyed viewing our summer memories........

Have a great day!!!
