It's never too early for magic!

Derek is such an incredible husband. After coming home from Time Out for Women several weeks ago he surprised me with a gift. I opened it and it was the cutest mickey mouse outfit for Cooper and tickets to Disneyland!
I was so so excited as I LOVE disneyland so very much.It was so fun to be there at Halloween, the fireworks were fabulous and there were these extremely talented pumpkin carvers. Here she was working on the Queen of Hearts.


She had already finished alice.

I LOVE the monsters Inc ride

Enjoying a Dole Pineapple float - our favorite!



Jesse was so cute with Cooper!

Cooper's very first ride was the Nemo Submarines. This is so appropriate because my favorite ride as a child was the submarines and this was my first time going on it since they've re-done it.


Going to Disneyland with a 2 1/2 month old has its perks.
The parent swap program had both Derek and I on the Space Mountain in twenty minutes when regular waiting was 40.
The only down side is that we rode many of the rides solo

Cooper's first picture with Mickey!

The last time we were here my dreams really did come true!
This was right after Derek proposed to me!

Now look at us!

I am so grateful for my incredible husband who is such a selfless husband and father. He is so thoughtful and loving and I still can't believe I am married to such a perfect man who gets up so early every morning after what is usually a not so restful night and goes to work so our family can make these memories.

I loved our trip! It was such a fabulous break and I loved visiting Cullen, Jenny, Mason and Brady! We just can't get enough of California!

OOOHHHH! So many things to say....I love those amazing pumpkins! Cool! Coop's MIck Mouse outfit is way cute. Where did Derek buy it? I love that Jessie was so cute with the babe. AND, Mickey was even holding his hand. So precious.
