Next stop... Hollywood "Walk of Fame"
awww... she could be Shirley Temple right!?!?
(I should have taken a picture of the forced tips we were expected to give for this... and we didn't even ask for him to do this, he just came up and started interacting with my two year old... I guess two year olds are known for making financial decisions of such...)
The next day we were off to the wonderful, magical world of DISNEY LAND
1st day we met Auntie Melanie, her boyfriend Ryan and his mom "Miss Jeannie" there... unfortunately I was lame and didn't capture any pictures of them!????
I will save you all the pretty princess pictures... but I have to include this one... Gabriella was so shocked to find Mulan at the princess castle... she is in LOVE with Mulan lately... it made her day!
We spent two days at Disneyland. The next day we met up with my brother, Uncle Jerod, and his wife Auntie Ashley...
of course... had to go to the princess castle again... to see who was there the second day... Mason was diggin' it of course... all the pretty ladies!
silly time with Uncle Jerod and Aunt Ashley on Pirates of the Caribbean!
Uncle Jerod's influence...
After that, we were sooooo done with LA.... now off to the beautiful city of San Diego... ohhh how I miss thee....
We of course took Kristina on Uncle Bob's famous tour!!! Here we are waiting for the tour...
After the tour we hung out at Old Town State Park... here we found Mason a special place!
The teacher here was even an old mean lady... very grumpy.... wowza!
The next day we were off to the San Diego Zoo...
where I must add we ran into Pete Wentz and Ashley Simpson, their baby Bronx, a nanny and a grandma... LOL... oh ya, we are cool... I didn't steal a pic though with my crazy huge camera... but Kristina did, unfortunately at this time I don't have that pic... so instead enjoy this pic of a momma and her baby instead... pretend it is Ashlee and Bronx!
They sure love Uncle Bob!
Our last day was spent relaxing, chillin and taking in the beauty of La Jolla Cove. It was an unexpected warmer day, so I allowed the kids to get wet in their clothes... Kristina on the other hand opted to go change into her swim suit!
Ok... they were officially not happy anymore...
They were wondering what I was thinking allowing them to get wet in their clothes...
Well that wraps up this trip... and this installment of our fun... stay tuned for posts on spooky or should I say "smooky" (in the words of Mason) Halloween pictures!!
