Our California Adventure - Day 1

The alarm went off at 5:15am. I got up and took a shower and got ready for the day. At 6am we woke the kids up and bathed them. Finished packing the toiletries and headed out the door by 6:30am. We drove to my Dad's house and picked him up so that he could drive our vehicle back to his place for the week.
We arrived at the airport around 7:15am. Got checked in and through security with no hang ups. We ate some McD's for breakfast then waited for about 20 minutes for our plane to board. This is a picture of the kids playing while we waited.

Collin had to sit 2 rows in front of us. He sat next to a college student so they hit it off well. He probably talked the poor guys ear off. Jordon sat with me and Sienna sat with Bruce. Worked out perfect.


We arrived in LA around 9:45am. We got our rental car and headed up north to Universal Studios. I had contemplated bringing our jackets because it was pretty windy but thought once we get in the sunlight it would all be good. Should have listened to that inner voice. We still had a good time even though I was freezing most of the time. The Shrek 4D was awesome! We spent 5 hours there and got back in the car and headed south about 50 miles to Anaheim to our hotel.
Here is Bruce and Collin being attacked by a large shark

The girls were SO excited to see Dora. Of course, so was Collin (hehe) ;)

You should have seen Sienna's eyes light up when she noticed Dora

Sienna, Jordon and Bruce. Sienna ended up falling asleep during this ride

Jordon dancing with Frankenstein. He really wanted to dance with Sienna but she wanted nothing to do with him.

Sienna and Shaggy hit it off. He got a big kick out of her.
