California Part II

I love that they love and adore each other (most of the time). This is one of my favorite pictures!

Another favorite. An awesome picture outside one of the best rides at Disneyland.

This is one of those rides that just takes you up and drops you. It makes me sick just looking at it but they loved it.

Logan flying Grandpa around in circles.

Logan loving his big kid status.

This is the silliest little ride at Legoland. It is kind of a carnival type ride but it puts a smile on your face no matter if you are watching people ride it or if you are flying yourself. Brooklyn somehow convinced Grandpa (hard), Dylan (harder), and Grandma (hardest) to ride a big drop roller coaster. She had already ridden it five times! So i took Logan on this ride by myself at the close of the park. Logan would sit in the front seat and just keep saying "again!" Without having to get off the lady let us keep riding and riding the planes until it was time to leave.

Grandma Fergie, Logan (he's hiding), Dylan, and Brooklyn on the planes. Who's ready to ride?

Sibling group session in the stroller. A nice chat over Cheetos.

Grandpa lifting Brooklyn up by the ears, it's a trick that's been in the family a long time. Believe me, I know.

This is Great Grandma and Grandpa Fortner. They love the little ones!

This is the four generations of ladies on my side. The sun got a little in the way but it's so sweet.

Another use for Grandpa, bouncing off his bum to pass the time in line.

I love this picture. Brooklyn thinks she can pick up Logan and she calls him her "sweetie." She is the "mini mom" of the family and makes sure we are all taken care of and watched over.

Sweet Dylan about to embark on a submarine journey. He loves the nemo ride, but I think his favorite was definitely the Matterhorn! He was brave enough to try space mountain but he thinks he'll be ready to go on that ride again in another year or two or five.

Brooklyn finding yet another object to swing on.

Brooklyn found many fun and hilarious uses for Grandpa's particular set of skills. She used him as a jungle gym, her own dress-up doll, and a comedy sketch. Our favorite was the case of the missing chicken.

Grandpa would pretend to be sleeping and he would ask everybody not to eat his chicken while he took a nap.

Brooklyn would enter, take a huge bite off of his chicken leg and...

Ahhh! Grandpa would wake up, make this face and Brooklyn would die laughing. This went on for many rounds and the only thing that could get her to stop was a stage performance.

Then Grandpa would say "hey, who stole my chicken?" While still laughing hysterically, Brooklyn would proudly raise her arm and claim the dirty deed.

Logan was also eager to get up on stage but this is what he did through the whole song. He wasn't doing any actions, he just wanted to stare at the audience.

Brooklyn trying to liven up the young performers. Dylan would have nothing to do with anything even resembling that much attention. Way too embarrassing and he's way to mature for this type of thing. He would however, dance around our picnic table.
