California Trip

Our trip was so much fun!! The boys did so AMAZING during the car rides. We bought portable DVD players for the ride and it was TOTALLY worth it. Thanks so Buzz Lightyear (for Tegan) and Bob the Builder (for Kyson) the ride was great. I was so worried it would be a bad drive, but the boys were SO GOOD!! We did so much fun stuff and had such a good time.
About half way through the trip Tegan and Zac got SO SICK, they both got strep throat!! My brother was able to get them some antibiotics thankfully, but I felt so bad for them. For as sick as they were, they still were great sports and tried to make the trip fun.
Poor Tegan got so sick while we were at Disneyland, he kept telling us his teeth hurt and he would point to the roof of his mouth for us to look at it, but we couldn't see anything. He tried to be a good sport the whole time at Disneyland, but the ride back to the condo he was MISERABLE!! He broke out in really bad fever and looked so sick!! The next day we just stayed in the condo the whole day and let him rest and Zac just kept saying how crapy he was feeling. That night he broke out in a really bad fever and was MISERABLE too. It's hard watching them feel like crap and not being able to make them feel better. Scott got them on antibiotics (Thanks so much Scott) and today Tegan told me "Mom, I am just almost better" but Zac has now broke out with cold sores all over in his mouth. It looks so SORE!! I feel so bad for him.
Overall it was a really fun trip though, even if they were so sick, it didn't stop them from having fun!!
WARNING: here is a LOTS of pictures from our trip.


I loved that everywhere was decorated for Christmas, this definately is the best time to go to Sea World and Disneyland, it was awesome!! There was hardly any people too, it was great!!



Tegan waiting for Shamu, or as kyson said, "Mamoo"



On the bus on our way to DISNEYLAND. He was so excited to meet MICKEY!!



This was how Kyson rode the whole Pirates of the Caribbean ride. He would cover his eyes and then peek through this hands.
All the fun wore them out and this is about the time Tegan started to get sick. He was begging me to lay down the stoller and let him sleep (poor Teg). Good thing we took our stroller for them to take a nap in, it came in pretty handy!!

The boys were SO EXCITED to meet Buzz Lightyear!!


We got to see Santa's Reindeer

I had to take this picture, Disneyland had a Christmas parade with all the characters and Kyson was so cute. When the parade started he got SO EXCITED and just kept waving to everyone and he smiled this big just about the whole time. Buzz even pointed right at him when he passed it was pretty cool.

The boys LOVED playing in the sand!!

This is the day after Zac got REALLY sick, we just hung out at the beach and took it easy.
Tegan was having so much fun sliding down this huge hill of sand

I LOVE this picture!! My three favorite boys at my favorite place in the world...the ocean

It wouldn't be a trip to Cali if we didn't see the Angels stadium (our favorite baseball team). We were sad the season is over, but maybe one day Zac will get to see them play in person.



I was so excited Scott and Sandra were able to come and spend the weekend with us. We don't get to see them very much since they live in Arizona. It was fun to get to spend some time with them again. Here they are outside of the Temple.

The Temple is so BEAUTFIUL!!
We had two day passes to Sea World, this was our second day there and Scott and Sandra got to go with us...I love Sea World
This is what happens when you make a two year old ride in a car for 7 hours straight, thank goodness we stopped in St. George both there and back. It was a good break for the boys.
It's sad our trip is over, but it's good to be home!!
