Friend Adventure: Disneyland

I'll be the first to say Disneyland isn't really my jam, but when your friends want to go, it's not about the destination—it's about the people you're with. So, of course, let's do it! We had time blocked out but couldn't come up with a plan. We met at Sara's house at 11:00, decided to go to Disneyland by 11:30, and by 1:00 p.m., I was on my way. We chatted in the car while Laurie booked the tickets. We found matching shirts at Target for our day! We started at the break of dawn!

It was pretty fun to buy and treat and not have to share it with my kids. lol.

This character actor played the piano so well for a small show we watched. He was hilarious too.

We were waiting for the Peter Pan ride. It had broken down and as we waited, more families kept bailing out of the line. We waited about the regular amount of time for the ride and the mechanics got it fixed. 

We did everything except Pirates of the Caribbean, which was closed for extensive repairs. I also say Laurie about get into a fight with a guy because he felt she was blocking his children's view of the parade. She did not back down and I thought be were about to get thrown out of the park. We moved to watch the light parade and all was well. At the end of the day, Laurie's strava said we had walked a half marathon and I believe it. I'm was bushed.

The next day, we woke up and went to the Yorba Linda Temple.

I went into the Celestial Room and started to cry. This will be the temple for Juliet's mission and it's lovely. It is lovely but it's also far away. I miss my kids so much when they're on their missions! I'm looking forward to Jack coming home in about a month! Yay!
