Halloween

This year Makenna wanted to be a lady bug for Halloween. Here is my cute little lady bug...


Every year Makenna's request is a puking pumpkin.



Makenna and a few of her friends getting ready to go trick-or-treating.



Carving our pumpkins.



Once again, my mom went all out with a fun Halloween party for the grandkids. There was lots of fun games and food...






DISNEYLAND!

As I mentioned in an earlier post, we took Makenna on her first trip to Disneyland. She was so excited and I have to say, it is so much more fun when you have kids! All I can say is Makenna is quite the dare devil. She went on every possible ride she could and was in tears because she was to short to ride Indiana Jones and Screamin'. But, her favorite ride was Tower of Terror and Thunder Mountain. I was a little bummed that I couldn't ride a lot of the big rides with her because I am pregnant, but it was worth seeing her having so much fun. Here are quite a few pictures of our trip...

The first thing that happened on our drive there was Makenna lost her second tooth. Good thing we brought her tooth fairy pillow!





We stayed at the Howard Johnson Hotel just down the street from Disneyland. This was a fun Pirate water play area they had for the kids.

Makenna's driving must have really scared Dallin.



Here we are in front of Minney Mouse's house.

Makenna was quite lucky to be able to get an autograph and picture with every single princess! This involved a lot of waiting in line time, but we did it.

Makenna and Tinkerbell.



I can't remember this fairy's name, but she is Tinkerbells fairy friend. I guess I need to watch Tinkerbell again!

Makenna and Eyore.



Makenna and Pluto.



Makenna and Goofy.


Makenna and Minnie Mouse.






This was so fun! They had a show and taught the kids how to fight with their light sabor. Here is Makenna fighting off Darth Vador!








Makenna in front of her most favorite ride, Tower of Terror. I wish I could have gone on it with her. She kept dragging Dallin on it with her. In fact there was a guy in line next to them warning Dallin that this ride might be too much for Makenna, but Dallin had to tell him that she was the one dragging him along.




We spent one day at Newport beach. It was the most perfect day and was nice and relaxing!
