A California Adventure

Around the time that Bryan started the MBA program, the kids heard about a family that went to Disneyland. They asked if we could go too. We said that would be fun, but we couldn't go at that time. We said we would make a trip when Daddy finished school.

They never let us forget it.

You'll remember that Bryan finished school a few weeks ago, which meant it was time to follow through on our promise. And boy, did we follow through.

A week ago Saturday we drove down to California. We spent Mother's day with my parents, my grandma, and my sister Paige and her husband Eugene. Then on Monday we took Grandma Bonnie and Paige and visited the Happiest Place on Earth. Paige was the only one of us that had ever been to California Adventure, so it was a new experience for most of us.

We posed for some pictures.

We met some characters.

We went on several rides.

We listened to music and did a little dancing.

We did our best to stay cool in the 103 degree heat. 

And we stayed until the park closed.

That was day one.
