The Blue Sky Cellar...

California Adventure has this new "attraction" called the Blue Sky Cellar.  Inside this room are tons of pictures and models of upcoming things that will be coming to the park.  I LOVE it, especially because I am always researching new things that are coming to different theme parks and such. 

Take a look at whats ahead!!

Buena Vista Street

When a young and energetic Walt Disney stepped off the train from Kansas City in 1923, he discovered a bustling Los Angeles filled with pedestrian boulevards, charming shops, tantalizing restaurants and shining Red Car Trolleys. Buena Vista Street — the new entrance to Disney's California Adventure® Park — sends you back in time to an idealized version of a city that has always been a beacon of bright optimism and new opportunity.

The Carthay Circle Theatre, where Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs premiered, will anchor the new plaza. It's the perfect place to start your own California adventure!

Coming in 2012!

Paradise Pier

Paradise Pier is a return to the romance, elegance and charm of the great turn of the 20th-century seaside amusement venues. Rich with Disney character — and Disney Characters — exciting new changes are well underway.

Featuring an old-fashioned boardwalk, gingerbread wood trim and delicate Victorian arches, Paradise Pier is a place to discover, to relax and to play. When the sun dips below the horizon and the twinkling lights spring to life, you'll know that you've arrive in the kind of timeless getaway that has inspired romantic dreams for generations!

Cars Land

Blending the magic of Disney stories and characters, the legendary adventure and excitement of Route 66, and California's celebrated car culture, Cars Land recreates the memorable town of Radiator Springs just as it appeared in the Disney·Pixar animated classic, Cars.

You're invited to a town built for, and by, cars. All the locals are home including Lightning McQueen, Sally, Mater, Doc and their friends. The whole city is recreated in loving detail — complete with three new attractions. You'll float on Luigi's Flying Tires, dance to Mater's Junkyard Jamboree and rocket through the desert on Radiator Springs Racers.

Got some catching up to do....

Halloween was alot of fun at the McD's! I decided to take over on the entertainment for the evening. I made up a story about "Captain Johnny Blackbeard" I had a map and you had to stop at each destination and play a game to earn prizes and such. Here is what I made:

The kids loved it! It was a lot of fun to put together!

Today I am thankful for...

So since it is Thanksgiving this week, I thought for the rest of this week I would post things

I am thankful for...

Today I am thankful for my loving husband!!

He seriously is the BEST!

He knows how to make me happy:

The other day I was gone for a couple hours, and I had mentioned how we really needed to get some cleaning done. (I wasn't implying that he do it, just saying how WE both need to) I can't remember what I was doing, but I was gone for a couple hours.  When I got into our apartment. It was SPOTLESS.  He cleaned the sink, toilet, tub, living room, kitchen (including dishes).  I was so happy! (especially because I was dreading coming home to do it)  He does little things like that to show me he cares :)

He knows how to make me laugh:

Johnny seriously makes me laugh on a daily basis. (Which he mentioned was his goal from day one) Whether its a funny joke or silly dance moves ( and much more) he knows how to put a smile on my face!

He knows how to make me feel loved:

Sometimes Johnny will stop by work just to say hi :) He ALWAYS comes grocery shopping with me.  I HATE going by myself.  For example:

By myself: shopping = 2 hours

With Johnny = 1 hour

haha I always kinda wander when I am by myself, Johnny keeps me on track! 

He gives me hugs and kisses!

If he knows I am having a busy day, he will make dinner for us without me asking him to.

And a million more things he does that are just fabulous! But I can't go on forever!

I am so glad I have Johnny in my life. I am so glad he is mine forever and evers!!

I was gonna make you an omelet and tell you all about it...

This weekend was very productive!  Friday night we went over to Court n Nick's casa to have our monthly "themed movie night." We watched Iron Man 2 and ate Omelets.  At first I had no idea what omelets had to do with Iron Man.  But as we were watching the movie there came a part when Pepper Pots didn't know that Tony Stark was dying and he said something along the lines of, "I was gonna make you an omelet and tell you all about it!" haha.  And then for dessert we had a mountain of icecream with whipped cream, crushed oreos, chocolate syrup, and reeses hard shell shtuff. It was very delicious!!

Saturday we were in SLC for Johnny's teams championship game against Olympus! Sadly, they didn't win :(  But they played hard! My pops came to the game with me, so that was fun to have someone sit with me! After that Johnny and I went shopping for our families Christmas presents! After like 2 hours we only found a gift for my mom! ahh! oh and some shtuff for me! yay!  After that my mom took me shopping for a few hours and we went to Fashion place and got me some presents! yay!

Sunday: Harry Potter 5 & 6 ACCOMPLISHED!!! I am ready for the weekend now to see the 7th Harry Potter! Its gonna be gooooood!
