March 4th Billy, Connor, and I headed for the best vacation of our lives. My mother in law was so kind to let baby Jack stay with her. I am very grateful for that. We stayed in St. George the 1st night. Our close friends The Holdaway's were there too. We met up with them and had dinner at Pizza Factory with all of them. The next morning we left. We stopped in Vegas at Ceaser's Palace and walked around their for a bit. I discovered the amazing store H&M. The one in Ceaser's Palace is brand new and the biggest one ever made. It was my 1st time going to that store and I got to go to the most amazing one! We killed a couple hours then headed straight to Anaheim! Connor took a short nap and was really good in the car. We walked to Downtown Disney that night and Connor loved the Lego Store. The next 3 days were DISNEYLAND. We were there pretty much open to close. Connor only fell asleep once out of the 3 days. The very first day he got really tired around 8:30 and fell asleep in his stroller. The next 2 days he was awake and energetic the whole time. He got tired once around lunch time. We walked to Mcdonald's and sat and relaxed there for about a half hour and then he was ready to go! He still talks about Disneyland constantly. I love that he has these memories forever. I know they will be some of his best memories in his life. This trip is now some of mine and Billy's best memories too. Going to Disneyland with your kid or kids is just so much better then not. I have 259 photos from the trip. It was hard to narrow it down but I picked about 30 for this post.
Connor had so much fun in this store trying on hats. He loved going into all the stores and looking at everything. This girl worked at this store and she was watching Connor and then just started playing with him. She played with him for about 15 minutes and said that he is the funniest kid she's ever met. Their were also some girls from Japan in front of us in line for Mickey that were laughing at Connor and loved him. They asked if they could get their picture taken with him and said that he was "pretty".

Pirate Connor. Aaarg! He requested these ears and sword after going on Pirates for the 1st time. Pirates was his favorite and we went on it a total of 4 times. His 2nd favorite was The Matterhorn. He loved Thunder Mountain and Alice in Wonderland too. He liked every ride but Tower of Terror and Space Mountain. He didn't cry on them he just closed his eyes.
Tinkerbell! Love this pic.
My cute sweet boy.
Handy Manny
Love this pic of Connor and Billy
Connor's favorite RAPUNZEL! We waited in line for an hour in a half to meet her. Every other character the most we waited was 10 minutes usually we just went right up to them. We only would wait that long for Rapunzel though because Connor loves her so much.

On the car ride home we drove STRAIGHT. No stopping in Vegas or staying in St.George a night. We stopped for bathroom breaks and gas only. Billy drove all the way to Cedar City and then was done so then I drove from Cedar City home. Connor took a 5 hour nap! It was amazing he has never done that!
Reading Calvin and Hobbes in the car.
Disneyland is so amazing! We were going to wait till Jack was almost 3 to go again. That way he will still be free but will be old enough to enjoy everything. We are thinking we might just go again next year because we loved it so much.

Awesome vacation! The pictures are so fun!
I always laugh when people talk about H&M. It was one of our favorite stores in London because it was so affordable. But ever sense we've moved out here it's seemed totally normal since we have them in our malls.
