Jason Sudeikis and Olivia Wilde seemed to have an awesome time at Disneyland with their son, Otis. 

While appearing on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Monday, Sudeikis spoke about Otis’ special fourth birthday trip to the California theme park. The actor and Wilde took Otis to Disneyland along with seven of their friends. 

“So it was nine adults. Just whatever this little boy wanted ― we just would be like, ‘What do you wanna do?’” Sudeikis recounted. “He’s like, ‘I wanna go on the carousel.’ [And the adults would shout,] ‘LET’S DO IT!’ and we’d be really, really excited and go there.”

The dad also shared a couple of photos from the day, including an adorable shot of Otis looking ecstatic when his grown-up companions cheered after he met the height requirements for a ride.
