Disneyland 2008



And we're back to reality. Last week we took the little monsters that insist on living with us to Disneyland & to the California Adventure Theme Parks. Saturday we said goodbye to Snowflake, made a quick dash to Phoenix, and flew out from SkyHarbor early Sunday morning. When we landed in California they were in the middle of a down pour and we thought our chances of spending the day remainder of the day at "Mickey's Clubhouse" was shot. Luckily, just a couple of hours later when Steven and Amy arrived (they must have brought some of that good ole Arizona wheather with em) the rain had stopped!!! So we packed the kiddos up and set off to "the happiest place on earth." Day one was non-stop rides, laughs, and for us moms & dads....acting like kids again. I think we went on EVERY ride along with our quatro of little men!!! Day two - Crew woke up and said : "I don't want to go to Disneyland!" You gotta be kidding me, what kid doesn't want to go to Disneyland!?! A kid that says, "I sick!" Then begins to spill vomit all over you and the rest of the hotel room. Crew told us later that he wanted to see Mickey, to our better judgement, we took the boys to Disneyland that day. The extent of our stay at "the happeist place on earth (when your not sick)" was one ride down Splash Mtn, a wet Shanda, & a sick and sopping wet Crew. We went back to the Hotel and let the poor boy sleep the rest of the day. Luckily, the next morning Crew woke up and started naming all the characters he wanted to see, the rides he didn't want to go on (because they were scary), and wanting to ride on Buzz Lightyear this many times (as he held up his fingers). The following days where magical....not only for the little monsters but for Big J & I as well. It was everything we could have hoped for (minus the sick day). To see our boys eyes light up, to make little dreams a reality, and making memories that will last a lifetime. We can't wait to go again!!!

Hey girl, sure miss you. You look great, how come you didn't invite us? J/K that trip looked like a lot of fun. Poor crew, I am glad he got to do all the things he wanted to even though he was sick. Give the boys a squeeze.
