Disneyland

The winter "blah's" were setting in . . . so it was time to head south. Paul and Jennifer and Heather and John and their families came too. We had a great time. After all, it is the happiest place on earth.

Kates and Zackary.

Katelyn and Sleeping Beauty. She also saw Cinderella and Snow White. She's a little dare devil - she loved all the roller coasters and scary rides. But once we were back home, I asked Katelyn what her favorite part of the trip was. Her answer . . . . "Swimming at the hotel." Great! We could have done that here.

Grizzly rapids was one of the kids favorite rides. They probably went on it 10 times. Here's a picture of most of the cousins. Look at Katelyn -- she's soaked! Check out these quick videos of the ride --

Dan doesn't usually like being photographed in his super suit, but we snuck a quick shot!

Happy Birthdays

This is a big birthday week--

15th - My wonderful Dan turned 39

I love to be with him -- he's my best friend. We are MFEO! He works hard and plays hard and makes life fun. As the kids say, "Dad's the fun parent."

16th - Heather turned 3 years younger than me :)

Well... I think she's forgiven me for the fighting days when we shared a room. She's a great friend and confidant.

17th - My perfect mom turns ?? today

I really lucked-out when it comes to parents. My mom is as perfect as they get. I wish I would have inherited more from her.

18th - My sister-in-law, Angie, turns... (honestly I don't remember)

She's more of a real sister, than an in-law. It's fun to have her live so close.

Happy Birthday to some very important people in my life!
