Beach and Disney

On Monday we got to go to the Mountains.  We went to Oak Glen and walked through the petting zoo.  CJ was not scared of the animals this year.  She had fun running up the mountain and feeding the animals.   I then took her to the candy shop and let her get a chocolate covered marshmallow.  We then went to a little store and got to try all kinds of homemade preserves.   I got Jay some spicy hot peach preserve.  CJ tried some homemade peanut butter and started to gag.  She decided at that point to stop taste testing. CJ loved the drive up and back down the mountain. 

Tuesday, Sue and Craig took us to the beach.  CJ at first was afraid of the waves.  Even with Craig trying to coach her.  CJ walked the beach for a while then all of the sudden she was not scared of the waves and decided that it was more fun to play in them then to be scared.  After that it was hard to get her to leave.  She did not want to go not even to get some dinner.  I had to bribe her by telling her that if we left for dinner that we could come back and play some more. We went out of Mexican which has become CJ’s favorite here, and then we went back to the beach.   

Friday, we surprised CJ with a trip to Disneyland.  We did not tell her that we were going to Disneyland.  We told CJ that she needed to dress cool and put lots of sunscreen on.  we got up early and took off.  She did not know where we were going but when we got close and the GPS said turn onto Disney Way, she started to make noise in the back of the truck.  When she knew for sure that we were going to Disney she got so excited.  The smile on her face did not stop all day long.  We got to see several of the shows and ride rides.  We stayed and watched the firework show and then had to leave.  It was very late when we got home and I was so tired.  So on Saturday we just rested.  It was defiantly a day that I will never forget.
