Disneyland......DAY 3

Wow!  Was this a crazy day at Disneyland.  The day started off awesome because we continued the tradition of going to breakfast. Yes it was our ritual for the time Cody was here. Wake up. Breakfast. Disneyland.  I guess I should have been worried this time when we were driving to Anaheim in the pouring rain.  But it never rains in Cali right?  Wrong.  We got there and had to catch the tram with a stroller and baby in the pouring rain.  Then we proceeded to purchased two Disneyland ponchos for $6.50 each which will probably never be worn again but we sure looked cool.  After that chaos we finally met up with the crew.   GG's face says it all


The gang said before we got there it wasn't raining so they had a chance to go on some rides.  They also got in an hour before the crowd so that was nice.  Here are some "before" rain pictures:

And here we are sportin' our stylish ponchos!


Sara and Steve were smart and brought their own

And Jakey refused so he just wore his stylish jacket (this was right after we tried to put the poncho on him....not happy!)


Although it was raining pretty hard, it cleared up after awhile which was AWESOME!  Cody and I went to Fantasy Land and literally walked onto all of the rides.  There was no one at the park.  Ryden loved all the little kiddie rides over there and even held onto the bar

To my dismay, Alice in Wonderland was closed due to weather


Loved Mr. Toad's Wild Ride


A few funny pictures:
GRANDPA!!!!  ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME??
liked to play with Grandpa's eyebrows/eyes
If you even knew how much this kid loves popcorn.  Jacob's perfect world:  Going through a tunnel, stopping at a stop sign, and popcorn for all meals
The few days we were at Disneyland and ALL Cody talked about was getting a pineapple treat from this stand.  The line was always so long so she kept putting it off.  She was finally on a mission to get one and......

Some more rides:
Buzz Lightyear!  See if you can spot Ryden.  And watch out for GG and her trigger finger!
Haunted Mansion for the third time


Pluto Love
Mickey Love
Fun at California Adventure
R is for Ridenour

While we were at California Adventure it started to POUR again!  Sara, Cody and I took shelter at the baby center.  Ryden enjoyed it as well.  He got to eat sitting in a cool high chair.  He likes to bang on the tray
So we decided we had had enough because the rain just kept coming and coming.  If I had rain boots I could have stayed forever since there was nobody there.  But the babies were ready.  The strollers were covered with ponchos and Emma was snug under Grandpa's poncho.  We made a mad dash for the tram.  Soaking wet but still the happiest place on earth
Grandpa even let Ryden drive home
