D-To-The-Land

And so it begins! The cruise date has finally come. December 11th we were off until December 21st. What a beautiful week and a few days it was. We left Friday afternoon towards St. George. We hooked up with Cole and Gabs, went to dinner, and then off to California that night.

Here we are! Happy for our trip.
It was a beautiful drive.
Finally together at last:)
We stayed at Cole's aunts house for the weekend. It was a lovely place and we were very grateful for that. They live about 30 minutes from Disneyland. Of course we were going to hit it up. We woke up Saturday morning and it was pouring rain! That almost stopped us but we gave in and it was a great decision. Best time ever!
"C" for Cortney and Cole
"R" for Rodger
Sorry Gabs, no "G" in California.
Christmas time at Disneyland. Can you think of anything better?

It was magical.

My prince and I in front of our castle.

Teapots were closed due to the rain....blast!

We tried to save some $ and go without the fancy rain coats. It didn't last long and we gave in and bought the over priced ones.

It was a still a busy day even with the rain, but it was perfect. We didn't wait longer than 15 minutes for ANY ride.

I formed a curly sue soon after we were there. The joys of natural curl.

Mmmmm the churros were delicious when we were wet and cold.

Looking attractive with the wet hair and runny makeup.

This is out of order and taken right when we got there, nice and dry.

This ride make me want to die.

Look at those bad boys.

And look at the fun girls.

Yes Cole is having too much fun! As was I, in the background.

I couldn't feel my toes and I wanted to cry but the fun made it go away!

They were the only characters that were out. Seeing the characters is half the fun, oh well. The rain scared them away.

Pirates of the Caribbean was the boys favorite ride.

Splash Mountain was mine and Gabs. We went 3 times in a row, didn't even get out. Jealous? I know.

It's beautiful, isn't it?

Here is the parade

Strong men are hot!

Mickey's house was fabulous.

Girls Tea Party in Minnie's house.

Oh Mickey. His outfit was cute. Do you think the Mickey behind the costume is smiling when pictures are getting taken? I don't. I bet they look like creeps.

Goodbye Mickey....until next time, which Rodger claims will be never. But Rodg Bear, what about our children? He still says no, but he'll change his mind:)

The Cruise was the next morning and boy was it fun! Pictures and details to follow....but give me time. I have a lot of pictures!
