Em-Eye-See-Kay-Eee-Why-Em-Oh-You-Es-Eee...
This past week we went on our first family vacation with Kinlee.We flew to California with Derks parents, Derks brothers family, and our sister in law Misty's family (yes 13 in all!!!). It was Kinlee's first time on an airplane. We were a little worried that her ears would bother her, or that she would get antsy and not want to sit still, but for the most part, she was really good on the flight there and back. We had a 4 day park hopper pass to Disneyland and California Adventures so there was plenty of time to go on all of the fun rides. Kinlee's favorite was the Jungle Cruise which takes you through the jungle and you see elephants, zebras and giraffes... Derk and I loved the Tower of Terror. At one point, we were laughing so hard with our friend Jamie that I could not even breath. We also liked Indiana Jones. We actually got stuck on the ride for about 15 mintutes so they let us go twice. Not bad considering it takes hours to get on the ride if you do not have a fast pass. Some people in our group saw some famous people... To name a few: Geena Davis, Seal and Heidi Klum, John Heder (Napolean Dynamite), and Celine Dion. Not everyone was convinced it was her but Derks dad and I were sure it was. We went to Newport Beach in Orange County. It is beautiful there. The water is freezing cold and sand gets in all sorts of funky places in and on your body. It's fun for a few hours, but thats enough beach time for me. All in all, the trip was fun. I was stressed out several times with Kinlee. It's not easy traveling with a 19 month old. I would not do it again any time soon, but it was worth it to see how excited Kinlee got and how much fun she had at Disneyland.

Looks like you guys had loads of fun- tons of cute pictures!!!
It sounds & looks like you guys had fun. I love Disneyland & the beach, I hope Dylan will like them one day too!
You are so good with the pictures. You must teach! It's way cute. So glad you had fun....much shorter flight than our Hawaii nightmare. It scared Mike for life. I'm trying to get him to go to San Diego next month and he keeps avoiding the conversation. I think he remembers what it's like :) with a baby but she's now a "toddler" so hopefully will do much better.
Awwww! How awesome! I am totally jealous. I doubt we'll go on a family vacation until Audrey is about the same age...We tried going to Logan for Memorial Day & had a terrible time. :) :)
How fun, Kinlee's first trip to Disneyland!! It looks like you guys had a fun time on your vacation!! I love Disneyland!!
I'm glad you all had a good time. Looks like Kinley really enjoyed it too. It's so much fun going with a big group. Glad you're all home safe.
