I bet you have been wondering where we were???

And you can probably guess right... DISNEYLAND!!! We went again over October Break and this time took Grandma Rowley with us. We left on Wednesday after school and came home Sunday. It was a very fun trip. We LOVE Disneyland... TONS!!! That's probably why we got Annual Passes this year. We are going one more time before they expire. I'll post about that later, but for now... here are pictures from this trip!

Enjoying icecream cones at the gas stop in Quartzsite. YUM!!!

Macee was crowned "princess" of King Triton's Carousel

Kids in Candy Corn Acres

Maddy & Macee with Minnie in her Candy Corn dress

Us all on Splash Mountain. Macee is finally tall enough to go on a lot of the rides! YEA!!! Her face is being covered by Maddy's hand, but she is really there. After the drop she got a little wet and she said, "I'm soaked!" (while holding her shirt out.) Funny girl!

Standing in line for Toy Story Mania, just after we got our 3-D glasses. We went on this ride 4 times! It was so much fun! The next few pictures are from this ride

Maddy and Tyler

Grandma taught Macee to stand on the number she was assigned, that way she wasn't too close to the ride while standing in line.

This is mine and Tyler's score. He was my buddy this round.

Grandma and Macee on Toy Story Mania!

Grandma and Maddy on the Disneyland Railroad.

Soarin' Over California is Grandma Rowley's favorite ride! She went on it 3 times. She could always talk Macee into going with her.

Tyler relaxing while waiting for Grandma and Macee to get out of Soarin' Over CA. This reminds me of Billy (my brother) on our vacations. He would just make himself comfortable wherever he was!

Grandma and Macee with their "bug eyes" on. While the big kids and dad went on some bigger rides, we took grandma to see "It's Tough to be a Bug." She had never seen it before.

The crew on Grizzly River Run.

Macee patiently waiting with me for the "crew" to come down the waterfall on Grizzly River Run.

Tyler in his dad's new Indiana Jones hat. He wore this hat a lot while at Disneyland.

Some of the decorations at Disneyland... I loved them all, but won't bore you with those pictures!

So that's what was in the box. When we went to Disneyland in Sept. there was a big box right where this Mickey Jack-O-Lantern is.

My kids at Rainforest Cafe. One of our favorite places to go while at Disneyland!

Teacups... need I say more? I'm definately not on them...

Grandma & Tyler. Tyler sure did stick by grandma a lot this trip. I think she really liked that!

Macee in the Indiana Jones Hat and glow necklaces. We decided to take in our own glow necklaces this time. You can get a tube of them that will make 5 necklaces for $1... can't beat that! Plus all the kids want is something that glows... so save yourself some money and take in your own! Also we took in Ring Pops and the kids really loved those for parade time and long lines... Just a tip from the Melsers!

Maybe my sanity is saved!!! Don't let them out!!!

The kids waiting for the "Parade of Dreams" to start.

I think I belong in the Haunted Mansion!!!
Since I'm behind the camera for the most part, Chuck took it away for a minute and snapped these of me. I guess I better be shown here so you all know I really went!

Until next time... enjoy these pictures! You know there will be more next time. And they won't be all the same because we are going with my mom & dad, Grandma Nichols (YEA!!!) and Billy and Karen's family! What a fun time, huh? We are looking forward to it very much!
