Universal Studios

WARNING-HUGE AMOUNT OF PICTURES!

We took a quick trip to Universal Studios this weekend with Grandma and Grandpa Collins, Aunt Tracy and Uncle Eric and their boys and Aunt Kelly. We had so much fun! The weather was perfect. It was cold and overcast the entire time. We loved it! Rain was forecasted for Friday, so the park was not very crowded which meant short lanes. Yay!

All the kids watching Alvin and The Chipmunks in the Hotel.

We love George!

Look, it's the Fast and Furious people! Woohoo!

Hug time! We are so silly!
Do you like all our hats? Grandma spoiled us and bought everyone hats at the park.

She is so awesome!

Yes I am a dorky dork!

I convinced Ben and Harly to be dorky dorks with me!

OK, I am deathly afraid of Chucky, so I am very proud of myself for being brave enough to stand next to him in this pic. When I was younger, a friend of mine told me all about the Chucky movies and I have had nightmares ever since. Which is so silly considering, I have never even seen them. So Harly and I had to take this picture next to him. They actually have a haunted house thing with him in it, but Harly and I chickened out. NO WAY JOSE!

Harly was not so sure about Alex.

All Harly wanted was her cotton candy. See the sheer joy in her eyes as she stuffs that huge piece in her mouth. Woohoo for sugar!

Harly and Nic

Tracy and I with our awesome matchy match hats.

We are just the coolest girls ever!

OK, Jacob, here is the first blackmail picture.

So Jacob was a little nervous about all of the rides and being the nice aunt that I am, I of course had to take pictures and blog about it. In this particular picture, we are watching the special effects show. In this show, a giant wolf monster comes to life and they also show some cool horror movie effects. Jacob was very nervous and was covering his face and ears as you can see. Oh Jacob, you cute boy! If you are scared, just start singing our favorite song.....Hannah Montana's Nobody's Perfect. You know all the words! (Hee hee....you are going to love me for that one.)

Cute hats.

Just chillin on the cool foot massagers.

Jaws.

OK, black mail number 2. This is a picture of Jacob at dinner. He was not very happy and so I had to take a picture of it. Love ya!

Me and my crazy hubby. He just loves to smile for all the million pictures I take.

Jon and Harly rocking out to Mariachi music at dinner. I have an awesome video of Harly dancing to it. I will attempt to download it to the blog soon. She is so crazy!

The Crazy Collins Family.

OK, instead of walking back to our Hotel across from Universal, we decided to pile all twenty or so of us into Kelly's van. Note the expression on the kid's faces. This was due to the fact, that all the parents were yelling at grandpa to drive safe and go in the right direction. It was a pretty funny sight. Especially when we pull up to the front of the hooty tooty hotel with the nice Bentley parked in front and all twenty of us pile out. The valets didn't know what to do when we kept coming and coming and coming. Memories, memories, memories....

The Hot Tub.

Finally in bed after a fun day.
