Clayton, Paul, Karri, and I had such a great time in Disneyland. I had never been to Disneyland during the holidays before. It was really fun to see the way they decorate the park for Halloween. Even the characters were in costume, and they looked really cute!
The first day in California we spent the afternoon getting our costumes ready for the trick or treat event that night. Everyone had talked about how great it was last year, so I couldn't wait to get there. We went as the Potato Head family. It was really cute. Clayton and Karri were Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head, and Paul and I were green aliens. I'm sorry to say I don't have pictures of our costumes right now, but I am working on getting those. We looked GREAT! If I do say so myself. There were tonz of kids that kept staring at us and telling there parents to look at Potato Heads. It was really cute. One of the cast members told us we were his favorite costume of the night. That made me happy. We had a lot of fun! I really want to do that every year.
On Saturday we did a scavenger hunt. That was really fun, and I thought it was way hard! Clayton, Paul, and Karri did it last year and they said last year was harder. I can't even imagine. We had a lot of fun and we came in 5th place. That rocks! They came in 11th last year. I'm sure we will do that again next year as well. I also told Clayton that the next time we go as a family we will have to break into teams and to a smaller hunt. That would be so fun.
Right after World of Color
Sunday we spent the day in California Adventure. That park has my favorite ride... TOWER OF TERROR! I totally love it!! We did have to go on it as many times as we could... Poor Paul, that isn't a favorite ride of his, but the rest of us love it. Sunday was the day that we went to World of Color. That was amazing!! I didn't really know what to expect other that Karri kept telling us it was awesome. And that really didn't even come close to describing the amazing show that was put on.
I think we all had a really great time. I mean how could we not, we were in Disneyland!! I love that place! I promise I will get more pictures for you to see. I just didn't take many. Karri and Paul take care of the pictures.
The drive home was a little scary... Right after we got out of Vegas we hit a HUGE rain storm that was really scary. Clayton was driving and he did a GREAT JOB! I was a little/lot freaked and I think he was too. We stopped for gas somewhere, and while we were in the store Clayton decided that the rain wasn't going to win. When we got in the car Clayton was still driving very safe, but he also wasn't willing to let the rain slow us down any more then he thought we had to. When the rain finally stopped we were all so happy, but I don't think any of us were as happy as Clayton. He told me my steering wheel might have indents that fit his hands. But we made it home safe and sound, and in good time.
I love the trips I get to have with Clayton. It is nice to have a best friend and brother all in the same person. Don't get me wrong I love Lady (Karri) and Paul to, but it is different with Clayton.
