Let's Go to DISNEYLAND!!!!! (Part 1)

At the end of January, we decided to make a spur of the moment trip to...DISNEYLAND! Pete's brother, David's, health has declined in the last few months, so he wanted to go to Utah and spend some time with him. We decided to all go with him and then on our way home go to DL. We had about three weeks to plan our trip and so we didn't get any hotels right across from DL, but we were still able to get a hotel around the corner and down the street. After a lot of searching we booked the hotel, bought our DL tickets, loaded the van and headed to Utah, on February 10th.

Here we are up on a mountain in Eastern Oregon and the clouds are below us. Such a cool pic.

We stopped at my parents house on Friday night and then went down to eat breakfast at Cracker Barrel in Salt Lake with Pete's mom. We dropped Pete off with her, so he could spend time with David and the kids and I headed back to my parents. I spent Saturday shopping at Target, eating at Costa Vida, chatting, celebrating my nephew and dad's birthday, having a barbeque and enjoying good company. It was a day packed with fun and bonding.

Seriously! Isn't this beyond cute? Lil buddies!

On Sunday, we spent the morning with my family, packed up, went to sacrament meeting with my mom, dad, sisters, brothers-in-law, nieces and nephews and then headed down to Utah County to spend time with Grandma Phelon and the the Phelon cousins. The kids had a blast with their cousins and Pete enjoyed his time visiting with his brothers and mom. After a huge and yummy breakfast on Monday morning made by my fabulous sister in law Inger, we headed out of Utah and on to California!
