A couple weeks ago we went to Knott’s Berry Farm in Southern California to celebrate Matthias’ birthday. We had cousins and grandma and auntie and uncle. Although he would have rather stayed home and played video games, I think he had a great time. Knott’s is more mellow than Disneyland. I grew up going there and it brought back some sweet memories!
Highlights of the day included malts at Johnny Rockets, bumper cars {we rode twice}, being silly and getting a charicature {a gift from the grandma}. Doesn’t Matthias’ daring look JUST like him?!
Happy Birthday to one of the sweetest eleven year old I know! We love you, Matthias!
What a fun day! If I ever get to CA, Knotts will be on my list to-do! Love David and the Snoopy pic. I’m sure he had a good time too! Happy belated b-day to Matthias!
Make sure to Disneyland first, Knotts second–but it’s lots of fun! xx
It looks like your family had a wonderful time celebrating Matthias’ big day! We lived In CA years ago (BK-before kids) and still have family there. Now our youngest (13) who has Down Syndrome is begging us to take him to Disney. The problem is that he is absolutely HORRIFIED of characters in costume. Last time we were at Disney they were everywhere! There doesn’t appear to be so many at Knott’s…hmmm maybe this would be a better fit for our family.
I didn’t see any characters walking around at Knotts. It’s not Disneyland, but it’s a lot cheaper and less crowded! xx
