California Love

Here are some highlights from our recent trip to California. We spent most of the week in Carlsbad in a great place right on the beach. Then we went up to DisneyLand for a day! We met up with our friends the Perkins' and the Naccaratto's. We only hit about five rides, but it was still a fun day. More crowded than we thought it would be, but it was still fun. It was great to see the park all decorated for Christmas. One thing you can always count on with Disney- they go all out. No detail is ignored, they think of everything!

Our friends the Perkins'. They live in San Diego and met up with us for the day.
The castle looked so cool all lit up and sparkly! I wish I could get my house to look like that at Christmas, that would be awesome!
Our friends the Naccaratto's. They live in LA and also met up with us for the day.

I took this picture inside It's a Small World. They had it all decorated for Christmas , it was so cool!
We got to meet Mickey! Sasha was asleep when we went into Mickey's House so we woke her up just before we got in there to meet him. I think if she would have been more awake she would have looked happier in this picture. Her favorite cartoon to watch in the morning is Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. After we got our picture and were leaving she reached out and touched Mickey's hand and waved goodbye to him. It was so cute!

This was on our first ride- Winnie The Pooh. Sasha had her hands up the whole time, not sure how she felt about it all. After we did the Haunted Mansion she loosened up and by the time we got to Small World, she was having a blast!
This was dinner one night in La Jolla. A great restaurant called Burgundy.
Playing on the beach in Carlsbad. Sasha loves the beach!

She didn't really like the freezing cold water, but she laughed anyway. :)

Love this picture.
Hanging out at the hotel in St. George.
Eating some ice cream. She picked up on how to eat an ice cream cone real quick!
