36 hours in CA? Yes please.

I love my family and I love Disney so of course when I found out that my Dad was going on a business trip to Anaheim/Disneyland, I had to figure out a way to go. After looking for cheap tickets and not finding any, my Mom offered to buy me one. Thanks momsie :) So I flew out after class on Wednesday evening and spent all day Thursday with my Mom and Hailey (her 12th birthday) at Disneyland. We also met up with my Uncle, Aunt and two cousins from San Diego and then later that night my Dad and 4 cousins joined us. It was so much fun! The Peterson's don't mess around when there is fun to be had. The lines weren't too long and we went on most every ride. I had never been during Halloween so it was fun to see all of the decorations. After Disneyland we all headed over to Coco's for a late dinner and then everyone drove home. My family and I flew out Friday morning and we both left out of the same gate! Of course I had to wait like 4 hours at the airport after they left. It was a quick 36 hour trip but so worth it!

My 12 year old sister is the same height as me! So sad.




Had to take a picture of Matt's favorite ride; Storybook Ride!


We joked that this was the October Peterson family reunion!

KISS

Matt and the other two engineering managers dressed up as KISS members for their Halloween party. Matt did his own make-up and I think he did a pretty good job! They even won PF Chang gift cards for their creativity. I don't love the look but at least it's just once a year!!
