So we did it, we decided it was time to take our little bug to California… Our vacation started off with a delayed flight (that isn’t always the best start to a vacation) but once we were in sunny California all of doubts seemed to disappear, it also helped that our planes name was bippity boppity blue.

The first day Haydn decided it was a beach day; we drove to Crystal Cove near Newport Beach it was so enjoyable to lounge on the beach and watch the boy’s body surf while Zoie with no expression seemed to love the water. That night we hit the Crab Shack for some yummy food, ya know it’s just not the same eating at the one in Utah there isn’t an ocean view.

We headed back to our hotel to get showered and into bed; we had an early morning with Mickey ahead. It was about 11pm when all chaos broke loose; my sister broke into our room stating that they had bed bugs… WHAT!!! So immediately we flip on our lights and sure enough we also had some crawly little critters in our bed one was on Haydn and I took a look at Zoie and there we bugs by her head… needless to say I FREAKED out, ok we all FREAKED out and we checked out.. mind you this is our first night and all of clothing items had been contaminated so it was off to do laundry all night; we couldn’t very well go to our clean hotel rooms with contaminated luggage. Let’s just say it was a very long night, thanks Mom and James for staying up to do the last of the laundry.

The Next morning we were off to experience some Mickey and Minnie fun. We hit California Adventure. Man I sure do love the Tower of Terror and Screamin. It was a little different having a little one along for the fun; we couldn’t just run from ride to ride like we have done in the past. Thanks Mom and Dad for all your help with Zoie.

We were so lucky that Zoie was so good, she experienced her first theme park ride Monsters Inc. She LOVED it; she also went on the Ariel carousal and the new Toy Story ride..

Is there really a happier place then Disneyland?

Day Three we were off to fight the crowds at Disneyland, again Zoie was so good and she can ride anything that doesn’t have a height restriction so we took her on everything we could. After all was said and done her favorite ride was Alice In Wonderland, she loved all of the bright colors…
