Disneyland!!!!

We were able to go to Disneyland and California Adventure Park for a week the first part of October. It was the best thing we've done all year!! The Bronson family has been planning this trip for 2 years! We saved and saved that whole time. My parents paid for our hotel and our park entrance for 2 days, and we paid for the rest. On our way down we stayed in Las Vegas the first night at Circus Circus. The boys LOVED it. The next day we tried to time it right so we wouldn't get stuck in LA traffic, but ended up right in the thick of it. Not to mention we had entered the hotel address wrong when we map quested it and ended up 40 miles out of the way on a wild goose chase! Good thing our smart and capable Daddy eventually found the way. On Wednesday we spent our first day in Disneyland and it was poring rain! But we powered through and actually enjoyed the light crowds. The next day we spent at California Adventure Park. The boys were SO excited to see Lightning Mcqueen and Mater. My favorite part was the World of Color light, water, and fire show. It was AMAZING to say the least. After the park closed we went back to Disneyland so we could see it at night with all the lights. It was all decked out for Halloween!! It was all so magical. Friday we spent a little time at both parks, but it was very crowded. So after about 4 hours we had enough of that, went and got a few souvenirs, and decided our Disneyland trip was officially over. On the way home we were so sad and wished we could have stayed longer. We all agreed it really is the happiest place on earth! We are already planning our next trip!!
