The time had finally come where we got to spend a week in California with Chris' family. We met Cory, Kallen, Markae and the Topham's all in San Diego where we stayed at North Island Navy Lodge. We had a great time at the beach and Hadley loved the waves! The boys got to golf while the girls got to stay by the pool and the beach with the kids. Chris also hit a seagull with his shoe...he's cruel like that sometimes. But really, Hadley got so excited watching the waves come closer and closer to her feet and she would clap almost every time. We spent 2 1/2 days at the lodge, stopped to see the San Diego temple, and then headed up to Anaheim for Disneyland.
Disneyland was fun this year since I wasn't pregnant and I was able to go on all the rides this time. Hadley loved the Little Mermaid ride, Small World, Monsters Inc., and Winnie the Pooh. We think Small World was her favorite. We had a blast with Chris' family and we took such "lovely" pictures on the rides. We even got stuck on California Screamin' rollercoaster for about 15 minutes and had to be walked off the ride about 3/4 of the way to the end. Hadley also loved the parades and seeing the lights. She has now started clapping to music and waving to people.
We were sad to leave, but we look forward to seeing them all again for the holidays.
