Our California Vacation

This year was our year for a family vacation with my parents and siblings (we do this every other year). We rented a house a couple of blocks away from Huntington Beach (for the beach lovers) and went to Disneyland (for the Disneyland lovers). It was a great vacation with lots of free time to lounge around, but also lots of great things to do. We spent a bit of time at the beach sunbathing, playing in the sand, jumping over waves, and boogie boarding. We were only two blocks from Main Street in Huntington Beach, so we got to enjoy their weekly street fair with all kinds of vendors and attractions. We spent two days at Disneyland and California Adventure (our secret weapon was RideMax). We visited with cousins and Jeremiah even got to take a surfing lesson.

The only thing I could have wished for was to not be pregnant :) It does make it a bit harder to ride long distances in the car, and I missed out on some rides at Disneyland. Plus, I had no desire to boogie board, to Adam's disappointment. But it was such an enjoyable week, I can't really complain!

I'm glad you had such a fun time. I know what you mean about being pregnant though. I missed all the good rides. I have now been pregnant the last 3 times I have been to disneyland. I am planning a trip for me and you as soon as we have these babies!!
