So it had been awhile since Dan and I took the boys on a family vacation, so after Kaden got his appendicitis we decided that it is time stop dinking around and plan a family vacation. So we decided to go to our favorite place and that would be San Diego. We stayed with our really good friends in Temecula and had a lot of fun with them.
We started our trip in Disneyland, which was awesome. Kaden can't stop talking about it and we can't wait to take them back someday.
So one of the first rides we went on was Splash Mountain. I'm really sad we didn't buy the picture, I wasn't feeling like spending $15.00 on it so this is a picture of the picture. I think that Kaden's face is priceless in it.
Another one of the highlights was all the characters that the boys got to meet. Kaden was so excited to meet pooh, he was a little star struck at first. As you can see Lincoln is loving Pooh.
Here's Lincoln having fun in Toon Town...
...and Kaden thinking he's strong enough to lift that, it was so cute watching him try.
We got to meet Dan's favorite character Goofy.
Kaden was so excited to meet Mickey Mouse, but the character he really wanted to meet was Donald Duck, so right after he saw Mickey he asks him "Mickey, where is Donald Duck." Poor Kaden didn't get an answer and we had to leave Disneyland without meeting Donald Duck.
Here's Kaden in his Mickey ears.
The next day was actually a special day, it was my little man Lincolns 2nd Birthday. We were so fortunate to spend the day with Aunt Kelley and Uncle Josh where they showed us a great time in San Diego. We did a lot of fun things that day, but the highlight would be Birch Aquarium.
Kaden and Lincoln had so much fun and were so intrigued with everything. Lincoln is actually trying to give the fish a kiss, it's really cute.
Outside they had an area where people can go and touch any of the sea life they wanted, it was mostly starfish, sea cucumber, and a lot of plant life. But here's Lincoln without a thought touching a starfish. It was really cute, but I was kind of grossed out because I knew there was no way I was going to be touching any of that. I'm a big wuss.
This is outside the aquarium.
Later that night we headed over to Kelley and Josh's where we enjoyed cake and ice cream for Lincoln's birthday. He thoroughly enjoyed it as you can tell.
Here's Linc is his Mickey Hat.I can't believe my baby is two, it's amazing how time flies. But we had a blast in San Diego and we always look forward to when we get to go back.
