Picture walk from the rest of our trip

We had a wonderful trip to Disneyland and Lego Land in June.   It was challenging at times with my knee, but we rented an electric scooter and that made life SO much better.  Here are some picture highlights:

 We had to do the Jedi training again so Emily could get picked...and she did!!  She was VERY excited!

 Ashley got picked too!  Double bonus!



 Playing in water on a hot day...heaven


 Tyler started smiling for pictures...so cute!!!!!


 Tyler was tall enough to go on his first coaster.  He loved it and begged to go again.  When did he get so big??
 My beautiful almost 9 year old




 Tried a new place to eat.  Big Thunder BBQ.  Our awesome waiter brought out a fun dessert for Ashley and sang happy birthday to her.  Really cool!


 Tyler telling us he wanted to go on Buzz...his favorite!


 Legoland had some extra Star Wars figures on display including this huge replica of an X-Wing fighter.  Way cool!  The girls were in heaven with their light sabers.







 Lovin' the splash pad at Legoland.  The girls LOVED the little water park too.

 The girls favorite ride at Legoland.  Getting to drive their very own cars.  Way cool!

Ashley's 6th Birthday

Ashley's birthday was on June 20th, but since we were going to Disneyland a couple days later, we didn't celebrate it til Monday the 24th.  The day started off with a trip to our favorite character dining, Minnie's Breakfast.  Great food and TONS of characters!!  Then Ashley decided for this trip that she wanted to do the Jedi training for Star Wars.  She had her birthday badge on so she got picked.  She looked so darn cute!!  And did awesome!
She then got to go make a lightsaber for her birthday present (her choice).  We had a fabulous day at Disneyland and Ashley even got to end the day by riding home on Mom's lap (since I was in a wheelchair--more about that in another post).  Could a birthday be any better?!
Happy Birthday my dear, amazing, independent, fiery, cuddly, cutie pie, Ashley!!  Even though you can be difficult at times, I couldn't imagine this family without you!  I love you so so much!!

 My beautiful family!!








 Everybody loved the breakfast!!



Can you tell by her smile how happy she is to be doing the Jedi training?
