Legoland 2014

Guess where we went? Yup! Legoland! On one of our many outings to McDonald's, we got a buy an adult ticket, get a kid ticket free to Legoland, and since we were going to be in California for Mike to run the Huntington Beach Ragnar, we thought, why not?
Ethan was super excited.
Looks like Jackson didn't care.
 This was a cool ride. There are water fountain things in near where the cars drive past and on-lookers can push a button to spray water in hopes to get a rider wet!
 Emma is tall, but still needs an adult on some rides.
 Jackson is just shy of the height limit on most rides, but the people at Legoland were okay with him going on them anyway. Thanks nice people!!
Jackson waving hello to me.
 This is a mini big shot or if you've been to Nickelodeon Universe in the Mall of America, it's a fly boat ride. My kids, Jackson especially, LOVED it!
 Oh boy! Who did we see? Darth Vader! (made of Legos) And Jackson ran up and gave him a hug.
 Emma gave hugs to R2-D2.
 Ethan was in HEAVEN with all the Legos and Star Wars...a great combo for this 8 year old!



 Of course we had to get a picture of our princess with Princess Lea!
 This mini Vader didn't get a hug from Jackson
 Me and Chewy
 Ancient Egypt
 The kids climbed into the Lego lion and stuck their heads out for an awesome picture.


 I loved riding rides with Emma. We have fun together. I love this little girl!
 And lastly, my smiley baby boy!
So, so, so much fun at Legoland. We even ran into some really cool relatives of mine. Next stop...Disneyland!!

 Us with Jackson's favorite Disney character
 Ethan was really into dinosaurs so when we saw a replica of Sue, we took a picture
 Emma LOVES princesses and her favorite is Cinderella. We waited to meet Aurora and thought we were just going to meet Aurora, but who was the first princess we met, Cinderella. I almost cried
 Me and Ethan (and baby Emma bump, on one of the few rides I could ride!)

 The water we played in...it was COLD!

Five years apart and I guess we are boring, we did a lot of the same stuff!
