The Happiest Place on Earth

It was a weekend getaway! Sierra and Mommy headed out to southern California to visit Mommy's friend Renee and her family.

Sierra and Ava immediately become new BFFs.
First thing to do... dress up as princesses and go to Disneyland!

We packed as much as we could into one fun-filled, exhausting day. It began with Mommy and Sierra being silly on the carousel.

While Renee and Ava were looking pretty, next to us.

The day was really all about meeting princesses (and a few rides). So here goes the rundown...

We've got Sierra and Ava with Cinderella.

The girls with Sleeping Beauty, aka Princess Aurora.

Sierra and Ava with Belle.

And of course with Snow White.

Sierra also found Princess Tiana, from Princess and the Frog.

And Sierra's favorite, Princess Ariel.

Sierre even had a chance to show Princess Ariel her singing necklace that has Ariel's voice. Sierra was Very proud.

Oh, and remember those rides I mentioned....

Sierra and Ava rode a pretty big roller coaster! They were so excited to sit with each other (and not an adult), and they giggled, happily screamed, and held on for dear life the entire ride.


And here they are getting ready to enter "It's a Small World".

The girls were mezmorized the entire ride, busy checking everything out and pointing to funny things.


Mommy and Renee enjoyed the ride too.

Another favorite was the Finding Nemo ride, where we rode under water in a submarine.



While we didn't ever find Mickey Mouse, Sierra and Ava did find Goofy... he was fun, but not nearly as exciting as the princesses.


But the most exciting of all?? The girls found their Prince!
After a night of some much needed rest, we were ready for more California fun. Sierra and Ava had fun with the dogs (Amstel and Jada) outside.

And then we all took the dogs on a nice walk.

And no visit to southern California would be complete without some fun at the beach!


Sierra and Ava had a lot of fun splashing in the waves and playing in the sand.


After another busy day, Mommy hit the town with her old friends Jen and Renee. Dinner, drinks, comedy club and good times!


Meanwhile, back in Colorado, the boys hung with Daddy for some quality bonding time.

Truly a magical weekend!
