Ben's Wish - Day 3 (more Disneyland)

For day 2 in Disneyland, our cousins joined in the fun again. Right as we walked in we met Goofy . . .



Next we wandered around a bit and rode a couple of ride. We decided to split up the group and Jennifer and Jordan graciously took Elizabeth, Megan, Sammy and headed to ride the more fun rides -- roller coasters, get wet rides, etc. Cari and Threesa took some of the other kids and went to ride the Nemo ride. Who knew that Nemo was so entrenched in our family now that Cari bawled through the entire ride. During Ben's treatments he did not always sleep regular hours so Cari would throw on Nemo and let Ben watch while she slept next to him.

Nathan, Joseph and I stayed to watch Jedi Training. Nathan got picked to be trained. He had all the moves down . . .





To hear Nate tell it he single handedly chased off Darth Vader . . .
Nathan taking his Jedi oath . . .

After Jedi training, and numerous trips up and down the stairs and ramps between the Autopia and he rest room, we drove the cars. I must say that Nathan was a much better Jedi that he was a driver. Both Ben and I got jostled and bounced about to our limits.


After the Autopia it was off to Toon Town for lunch and more rides and games . . .



The kids loved Daisys boat and Goofy's house . . .


Then the ride that dad REFUSES to ride . . .the DREADED TEACUPS!!

We rode rides until the park closed. By the time we headed back the kids were spent, yet again.

  1. Ellie loves the Jedi training, but never got to do it. She just said, "Mom, did Nate have to chase off that big boy?" I also HATE the teacups.

  2. The Jedi training was sweet. Brooks and Kai are going to be so jealous when they see the video. That is awesome!
