We took our 2nd Annual Thanksgiving trip to California this year, it was a great time! Its so nice that when we cant be with family, we get to be with our second family!
We drove up early Thursday morning and headed to Maureen's for a DELICIOUS dinner, wow it was good! The kids had a blast playing with Duke, I think he was shocked at the two crazy kids that came to dinner!
Friday our tradition is to take the kids to Knotts Berry Farm, that is one of my new favorite traditions. I LOVE a good amusement park and the kids are getting to the age where taking them to those kinds of places is actually enjoyable...let's be real! It's not too crowded so the lines really werent too bad!
This one...she is me made over!! She LOVES the fast rides! Her two favorites, the swinging dragon ship that basically goes vertical and the log splash ride. That is my favorite too! We rode each of those rides three times and I definitely wouldve done them all again!
He was alot more cautious but he rode everything with us that he could if he was tall enough. But his faces in the pictures in the log rides were hilarious. If a 6x8 wasnt $16 I would've bought all three! They were great. He was a great sport though.
Saturday we went to the Adventure to Santa experience with the Knapps, it was alot of fun. Owen was a little cautious but did walk up to Santa and tell him what he wanted...a monster truck remote control. Hannah wanted school/teacher supplies, clay, a baby doll and baseballs.
We went back to Maureen's for the UCLA/USC football game and the kids just played and played, then played some more at Chik Fil A! They were so tired every night!
We headed back Sunday morning after breakfast with our favorite second family! It was a great 4 day trip and just what we needed!
2 weeks until our flight to KY!! We are counting down for sure!
