how about California Adventure?

On Tuesday, St. Patrick's day (notice our nice green) we headed over to California Adventure.  One of the most exciting things to Cannon was seeing Lightning McQueen and Mater.  The Pixar parade was so great,  Jackson slept thru it, and would not, WOULD NOT wake up, but Cannon was so sossososo sososo super duper excited to see all his favorite movies come to life!!!  
this is a photo op spot, they have Disney crews on site to take your picture if you don't have a camera- I could not get either boy to look at me long enough- they were too happy to touch their favorite cars:)

just think my green boys are so cute
we had never really explored the Brother Bear adventure park, but once we did, it was so hard to get Jackson to leave!  He had so much fun!

Cannon really liked the little kid rides... he didn't care for any indoor rides- he said they were all scary, but if it was outside he LOVED it!
Heimlich was a momentous ride... it was the first ride that Russ and I got to sit next to each other... ahh, just like the old days, snuggling on the Love ride:) ha ha!
Goofy was the only character we saw- and he ate Jack!  oh no!
In the evening our great friends Cory & Laurel came up to go to dinner with us:).  Yes, Laurel and I have been friends since we were twinkles in our parents eyes, and are like cousins!  It was so fun to hang out for the night, and our kids had a blast!
Cannon and Gunner were two peas in a pod!
then again, so was Makenna and Jackson!
Laurel & Laurel  
ha ha, so so cool!
Russ & Cory... posing:)
we can't wait to meet you guys at the lake this summer!  Thanks so much for coming out!!!!! and dinner:)

We had fun! Makenna has asked when she can see Jackson again almost everyday so we'll definitely have to meet at the lake!
