California Adventure


We had so much fun today. We didn't think that we would spend the whole day in California Adventure, but we did. The time just flew by, before we knew it we had to leave. Emilee had a lot of fun. As we first walked in we ran into Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, and Goofy. We bought her an autograph book, and she loved having them sign their names. We went on some rides and played some games, Emilee and Adam both won prizes, I am not great at arcade games so I did not win any prize. Today we had a nice surprise and ran into Becca and Noel Platt. It was nice to see some familiar faces. We had lunch with Ariel, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, and Jasmine. Emilee was hungry when we met Ariel and Cinderella so she didn't smile that much. She warmed up, and enjoyed seeing the others, she kept trying to tell Sleeping Beauty that she had met Cinderella. We had so much fun, we can't wait until tomorrow.

Knotts Berry Farm

Yesterday we went to Knotts Berry Farm, we had fun. I felt bad for Adam it wasn't anything like he remembered. He was so excited to take us there, and then was really disappointed. We took part of a promotion they had going on, so we only paid about half price for our tickets. We went to camp snoopy for Emilee first, as we walked in we saw snoopy greeting kids. To our surprise she ran right up to him and gave him a hug. I would of had a really cute picture, but one of their employees stepped in front of me to take their picture. So I had to pay for a copy of the picture. I would of paid anyway for 1 copy, but I wanted to take one so I could print it off for scrapbooking. So we will try scanning it when we get home. Emilee had fun on all of the rides she could go on, but one. She didn't like the tugboat that swung back and forth, while going in a large circle. It made her tummy upset. After camp snoopy we walked around and Adam went on a few rides. Then we went to lunch, and that was the end of our trip to Knotts Berry Farm.
We got back earlier than expected so we took Emilee to the pool and she loved it. We had to pull her out again after a couple of hours, because she was starting to freeze.

Swimming

We decided that part of relaxing tonight would be swimming. It was so much fun, we were the only ones in the swimming pool and Emilee loved it. It was the first time that we actually took her to a real pool, she has only been in the kiddie pools. We had so much fun playing with her. Adam got her to jump of the side of the pool, and we played ring a round the rosies. We had to pry her out of the water, and she already wants to go back. She keeps telling us that she wants to go swimming. We have had a really great vacation so far, and it's only the second day.

We Made It!!!!!!

We are finally sitting in our hotel room, in California. We left yesterday morning, and didn't run into any problems. Emilee started to get irritable about 3/4th of the way to Vegas. We spent yesterday at the Excalibur, Emilee enjoyed playing some of the kids games they have in their arcade room. We ate at their buffet, and thanks to the special they had it only cost $11 for all of us. Emilee had a hard time falling asleep, and woke us up early. So after getting everything ready, we left for California.

A really happy side note, Emilee didn't have any potty accidents both days.
