We actually had our green french toast a couple of days after St. Patricks Day. I asked Ayden if he wanted his green french toast-but I think must have thought it sounded a little strange-so he would say no. Curiosity got the best of him, and we finally had our green breakfast, and he was obviously a fan!
With minimal lines the first day we were there, we got a good portion of the park done by lunch! 
The Tea Cups are my job due to the excessive spinning-Kipp just can't handle it! 
While Colby napped, Ayden went on Matterhorn with Kipp. I was a little nervous 
Loved hanging out with the characters 
The maps of Disneyland and California Adventure became one of Adyen's favorite things that we brought home. He loves to look at them and tell me about the rides that he went on. 
We had a great time hanging out with Grandma and Grandpa. We wore these guys out each day. They were headed back to the hotel by dinner most nights and took some afternoon naps here and there! These kids can be exhausting!
Ayden was so excited to go to Disneyland with his cousin Zack. They had a ball together! 
One of the favorite rides, was Toy Story of course! 
Waiting for World of Color-which was amazing, by the way! 
We had never seen this little petting zoo before-how have we missed it. It was a nice break from standing in lines. 
Cars-always a favorite! 
Watching the fireworks. Notice Colby has not one, but two lollipops. He was in heaven!
Clean teeth!
They also sent him home with a mask and gloves to practice. Keep it up Ayden and take really good care of your mom and dad in our old age!
Look him up in the yellowpages in another 25 years or so
Our Christmas started, as I believe most peoples' Christmases start-opening presents! We are really good at that at our house! Santa brought us a lot of wonderful things. And yes, Ayden got his remote control spider that he asked for. The spider that I also happen to think is horrible. I have a feeling that as a mother of two boys, this will actually happen quite frequently. 
We spent time with wonderful family.
And more time with other wonderful family. Ayden and Colby also got a jeep. Colby was so excited about it, and Ayden was more excited about being the 
Another very merry Christmas! 
his "girlfriend" Sadie played Mary (who by the way, refused to do it once an old man at the old folks home where we did it scared the tar out of her),
the innkeeper played by Boston who yelled, "NO ROOM!" very well,
a cute angel played by Marina, 
and not pictured, Ryan who was supposed to be a wiseman, but refused because he wanted to be a dragon. Best. Nativity. Ever. 
We always have such a wonderful time at Breakfast with Santa because of the this cute gal! Thanks Grandma Betty! 
Ayden was really excited to show Santa his list and tell him exactly what he wanted...a toy story geotrax train and a remote control spider. 
Colby is once again very excited to meet the Santa 
At this point, Ayden is not so much into Santa, but more into the bag of treats that Santa gave him. Don't feel bad Santa, candy has that effect on Ayden-doesn't matter who you are.
Ayden making his list 
Best buds!
Some of our darling friend invited us over one evening in December to meet the big, jolly man himself. Ayden was so excited! I was worried he would be scared, but he did great!
