Late night Disneyland trip

Yesterday was my moms birthday... Happy Birthday Mom!!! Me, Celina and Mom all finally treated ourselves to a spa day. We have all had gift certificates to Burke Williams for at least a year, but haven't made time to use them. Well, we finally did and it was amazing. It was my first time getting a massage, I've always been kind of weirded out by the whole thing, but I really enjoyed it. Thanks mom and C for the fun day of lunch, drinks, massages and chats.

So when I got home Greyson was taking a nap so Geoff and I were figuring out our plan for the rest of the day. We decided we should do a night trip to Disneyland. We always go right in the morning so we thought it would be fun to have Grey see Disneyland at night. I was super excited once we got there cause I had no idea they decorated so cute for Halloween!!!! It was so fun.

The orange glow on the mountain at Thunder Mountain was really cool

Daddy and Grey went on one of Grey's favorite rides... Dumbo!!! The line is always pretty long, but he waits so patiently for his minute and a half.

Daddy having a BLAST!!!! Its so hard to time the picture right when they are wizzing by

As always... his perfect wave from the Carousel

K.... below is the most CLASSIC picture ever!!!! Geoff and I said we were going to try to get more photos of us as a fam while we were at Dland, so while we were waiting for the fireworks I held the camera out and said " say Cheese!" then snapped the photo..... this is what we got =)

yep... he is all boy!!! Got to save this one for a good story some day

Getting ready for fireworks... word to the wise... we thought it was best to steer clear of main street and the square during the fireworks. We were rookies so we didn't exactly know where the fireworks were set off from... thought maybe over Tom Sawyers Island ( or whatever it is called now.) So, we decided to post up by the Dumbo ride cause there were places to sit, figuring we would be able to see the fireworks in the sky where ever they were set off from!!!! Ok, hello.... didn't realize they get shot off right above the castle and right behind the DUMBO RIDE!!! Who are the DUMBOS now!!!! Our poor child was petrified....

Those pictures are with using no zoom... they were right above us... even I was dying with how loud the BOOM was...Here was our solution for Grey....



He demanded back in the stroller, pulled his stroller hood over him, held his tige and I put his sweatshirt over his head and ears and had to press on his ears... this got him through the show...

it was a super fun night even dealing with the crowd to leave and the stupid chick who was trying to cut through the man infront of us and our stroller, who preceded to swing her purse right into Greyson's head.... he got clotheslined bad!!! Poor little guy was scared and crying and pointing to where she went saying "ouwee."

We got to the car around 10:35pm and headed home... we all went to bed as soon as we got home...Super fun night kicked our butts.
