Disneyland

Friday, Sept 9, Neil, Kynlie and I hit the road to Billings to catch our plane to Los Angeles on Saturday. We ate supper with Neil's mom, sister and a friend in Billings, got Kynlie's birthday decorations then Neil and Kynlie went swimming at The Reef indoor water park. Kynlie LOVES the water but it was getting late so they only swam for a half hour. Our plane took off at noon on Saturday and we were on our way to Disneyland.

We got into LA around 2pm, got our rental car and drove to Aneheim to get checked into our hotel. We decided we might as well head over to Disneyland after we got checked in so we went over and wandered around, watched the parade, Fantasmic show and fireworks. We went on the It's a Small World ride,  and Kynlie and I went and saw the princesses while Neil went on some thrill rides.

 Sunday and Monday we were at Disneyland and Disneyland California Adventure and went on what rides we could, saw a lot of characters, Kynlie didn't mind them as long as they didn't try to hold her. She would give them high five's, blow them kisses and wave to them but that was as close as she'd get. Kynlie was a great traveler, she'd take short naps in her stroller during the day and by the end of the day, she would get a little crabby, but as soon as we would get to the hotel where she could move around where and how she wanted, she was fine. I was sore and exhausted by the end of the day but it was a great time!

Waiting for the World of Color to start at California Adventure

Tuesday we drove back to LA and went to Universal Studios, we went on their studio tour, Neil went on some rides and we saw more characters there. While we were at the Special Effect's show, Kynlie laid down on the floor to try and fall asleep so I picked her up to try and get her to cuddle with me and she took her blankie and crawled back down to the floor and went to sleep! I bet the cold cement felt better than sweating on me!

We stayed in LA that night and had to be at the airport by 5:45 am to catch our plane. We sat at the airport for 7 hours before we got on the plane as it had mechanical problems! It was a long day but we finally made it home safely! 

Thursday and Friday were spent catching up on sleep and doing laundry, Saturday was Baker's Fall Festival so we wandered around there in the morning, had lunch with Neil then came home to get some work done on the house. Neil got our roof fixed, I tore staples out of the floor in the baby's room, then we went over to Mettler's for supper.

We had some sad news over the weekend, my sister-in-law's step father unexpectedly passed away at his ranch Saturday morning, please keep Bruce, Stacey and their girls in your prayers as they deal with their tough loss.
