CBQ this one's for you

So when we lived in Rexburg we met these lovely friends who we now miss dearly now that we don't live there anymore. My husband informed that our friends think I don't update our blog enough so they have to text/call my husband to find out what we are doing. This is so true because by the time I get home from work I don't feel like being on the computer cause that is where I am all day at work. So today I prepared and brought my camera to work with the cable hookup to upload to our blog just for our friends!!! Aren't you happy friends? This one is for you! ;)


Last week our work treated the entire company to a Disney Training Seminar. Our company is the top producer for Disney and so as a thank you they offered this seminar to our company for FREE!!!! Usually this seminar is around $1000 a person. As you can imagine I was super excited to go to Disneyland for the day. Jared has started full time with the company again so he was included on this training. We started the day  with breakfast in the CAST only cafeteria, I am pretty sure I saw Pocahontas and Jasmines maidens while eating in here.

 After the morning seminar of the history of Disney and their values as a company we then went to lunch and had a VIP tour of the Disney Dream Suite (above Pic, on the balcony) the Dream Suite is in the middle of Disneyland and can only be won, not booked. The day we went was the Cast Member day and they had an Employee staying the night with their family. Pretty cool huh? The rooms were literally magical, each room did something cool.
After the dream suite we took a tour of Walt Disney's apartment and had a quick version of the Leadership Training that Disney puts on and got to skip the lines and walk right onto Pirates of the Caribbean ride.(SWEET!)
 I can't get this picture to rotate cause I don't know how- but we passed this shop on main street as we walked to our front row seating at the parade. Pretty special I am eh?
 Here we are waiting for the parade to start, please notice the front row seating! It was a very bad idea to wear black on a hot day so we took our free shirts that we got and put them on our heads for some shade. Parade started below with a drum-line which was SO cool- you couldn't help but wave like a maniac at all the princesses and characters. It doesn't matter what age you are at Disneyland you can act like a kid and still get excited about Goofy and Mickey Mouse :).
We then had 3 hours to kill in the park before we had to catch a bus to the airport so we waited in line at Indian Jones and loved it.  I think our next vacation will be to Disneyland, i forgot how much fun it was! We will definitely have to SAVE for this trip as Disney loves to eat all your money once you are in the park, but the place feels magical and fun and its so worth every penny. Anyone want to go to Disneyland next summer? :)

This week Jared and I are going on a TREK. We are Ma and Pa's and are in charge of 8 teenagers for 3 days where we push a handcart and dress like pioneers, sing songs and have a hoe-down. It is going to be a blast and I will be sure to post pics afterwards.

CBQ I hope you enjoyed this update on your favorite friends life. We miss you!
