Legoland USA, Carlsbad, CA

All I have to say is that if you don't think this place is cool (a)there is something wrong with you and (b)you've never played with Legos.

Kallie took this picture of a pot of flowers in our hotel lobby...I'd almost rather have these than the real thing (at least they don't die)!



Kallie wanted to ride in the boat by herself so I got booted :(



It's official, my girls are wimps! If you see two year olds on the ride...that is the ride Kallie and Syd will want to go on over & over. Like this horse ride that they thought was the greatest, the horses rocked back and forth a little and went around a track...yee haw! I did make them go on one little roller coaster (The Dragon) Kallie was wimpering the whole time & Sydney kept saying, "this is NOT fun mom, NOT fun!"



Happy Halloween (almost).



I'm telling this story just to let you know what a bad mother I am...They have two little tracks for cars one is for 2-5 yr olds, we started out in this line and I said, "Uh oh, you guys are too big for this ride but there's one around the corner for bigger kids." So we get in line for the cars for bigger kids...and we wait & wait. As we get closer to the front I notice the sign that says for 6-12 yr old. Oh crap! Sydney is 5 1/2 but she is NOT going to be happy if I make her get in the "baby" line again. So I said (mostly joking, I didn't think they'd really ask), "If anybody asks you, tell them you're 6." Sure enough, the teenage Legoland worker comes by and asks everyone how old they are, and Syd (without even hesitating) says "6"! What have I done? I TOLD her to lie and she did without even thinking twice about it. True she has friends that ARE 6 that look younger than her, and true she was fully capable of driving the car (except that little U-turn she tried that didn't work out so well), but it was still a lie! Once again I win the terrible-horrible-no-good-very-bad mother of the year award! Yay me...



Yes there were 2 year olds on this little train that went around the track...but if SHE'S happy I'm happy too :)



Syd enjoying her $5 slice of pizza...







Dan took this picture w/o me even knowing...yay Dan! I think that's a first (and maybe a last).





Beautiful ending to another fun day!
