So of course our crazy life has caught up with me and I haven't had the time to blog. To continue the celebration weekend for the hubs I'll start with Saturday. Saturday was a very easy relaxing day. Our local aquatic center had a free youth program to promote good health for the little ones. Our friend works for the city so he was able to give us a tour (it's actually quite large). I'll name a few activities since there were probably 50 or so "sports" going on. In the pool they had Kayaks and paddle surfing. On the lower level field they had golf, hoola hoops, soccer, raffles, fencing. On the top level inside the gym was hockey, face painting, My Gym, and hospital promotions. The outside part had volleyball, frisbee, etc.! Gives you an idea of the big event in town; Like I said there was A LOT going on. So we did that for a couple hours. Later we met up with his family for Blake's and his brother's bday dinner. Olivia ran outside the restaurant and had a blast with her uncles! Very simple quiet evening. Which was much needed for the next day...
DISNEYLAND!!!!
Blake and I have always been kids at heart and LOVE Disneyland (in front of Cinderella's castle is where he proposed). He got us season passes last Christmas and we have probably gone at least 10 times already! The last 5 times we have brought Olivia and believe it or not, there is a lot for her to do for her age. She most likely won't remember it but we love it! This time around we wanted to go on the "big kid" rides so Oli stayed with my in laws and had a sleep over.
It was seriously the most perfect day! Weather was perfect, we went on every single ride (even in CA adventure), Blake even got me a new Mini Mouse blouse and we even ate at the ESPN zone for dinner. They have this ride at Disneyland called Buzz Lightyear and it is a ritual that we go on it every time! While the ride is moving you "shoot" these lazers at targets to get points. Each target has different points. Ever since we were dating I would kick his ass at this game. I felt bad, so I ended up telling him my secret that you want to aim for the blue or purple targets (which are higher points). He claimed that he does and that I am cheater! This time around he finally listened to my advice and he WON! He says I let him but trust me I didn't. At the end of the ride you can find your picture (that they snap when you have no idea) and email it to yourself. THEY SWITCHED THE SCORES! Omg, I was dying laughing. He finally won and they didn't even give him credit for it. Again, he claimed I somehow cheated.
My favorite part was finishing our day watching the fireworks. We normally can't make it past 7 pm and head home (I sound so old) but we made it to 11pm! So proud of us! I made Blake go on splash mountain, which landed him in the front row! He was not thrilled... he got so soaked! It was hilarious! But because of that, for the rest of the day, our feet were rubbed raw. The second we got to the car we immediately took our shoes and socks off. We probably sat for a good 20 minutes in the parking lot in relief from the pain of our feet. People were just staring at us but honestly we did not care at that point. It was completely worth it! The last three days have gone by so fast. This weekend was a success!
