PARTY Weekend!

October 10, 09 Hailee went to her friend Jocelyn's (The girl below in the purple and grey shirt) 2nd birthday party! It was so cute! It was a Care Bear theme and they had care bears everywhere! Hailee had alot of fun! She played with play dough , toys, colored, and did some stick dance thing with the movie that they were playing! Hailee and Jocelyn have known each other since before they could walk! I hope they will be life time friends!

That night Hailee and I spent the night at my parents house. Hailee loves her Grandma and Grandpa time! It's always amazing what she can get Grandma to do! They have such a fun time together!October 11th was my 26th birthday! Holy smokes! When did I get so old! lol. Anyways, our plan was to hit Disneyland to get my free $72.00 gift card! However, things didn't go as smoothly as we would have liked!
So, we were on the tram to Disneyland and I realized....I didn't bring my LICENSE to prove my birthday! I got so mad at myself! Gregg said lets see if when they scan our season passes it brings up your birthday. So I was hoping that would work out and everything would turn out great! Anyways, once we got into the park, the line to the Guest Service area was sooo long! We decided to hit a couple rides and then come back later. Well, that didn't happen. We have never seen Disneyland sooo CROWDED! We have been several times where it has been packed, but NEVER this packed! It was RIDICULOUS! There wasn't a line that was shorter than an hours wait! So, what did we do?? We went on the canoe ride! That was only about a 5 minute wait and now we know why! It's so stupid! You have to row yourself around the whole pond and the people in front of you end up getting you drenched with the nasty water! Once that ride was over, we took the ferry across to the island and explored a little, and then headed back.
Once we got to guest services again (And waited in a long line) we were able to talk to the lady and told her our situation. She scanned my pass and it brought up my birthday as Jan. 1 2000. What?!?! She then sent us over to another building and then they sent us back to the same building where we started at! Luckily, everything worked out in the end. I still got my $72.00 gift card! I guess that hassle was definitely worth it!

Once we got back from Disneyland, we had dinner (BBQ Chicken Chopped Salad...my favorite!) that my Mom had ready for us, and then I opened gifts!
The first half of my gifts were easy to open. I would pick one up and just open it! However, the second set of gifts (which were from Gregg) wasn't so simple! Every holiday he comes up with some kind of scavenger hunt, balloon popping with darts or game that I have to play to earn my presents! Well, the game he made up was HILARIOUS! I had to choose all these different doors which led to other doors which led to questions and then to making Hailee laugh (Which was actually hard....she was so tired and grumpy!) to arm wresting my Mom! It was such a fun game and night! I loved all of my presents and thank you Gregg, Hailee, Mom and Dad for such a fun night!
I have been wanting an apron for a while now, and look how cute these aprons are! My Mom made Hailee and I one so she can help me out in the kitchen!

Thanks to everyone else who made my birthday so special!
