Spontaneous Trip!!!

The other day, Mike comes home and says, "I have next week off. Wanna go to Disneyland?" Anyone who knows me knows I was like um...YEAH!!! So, we planned a quick trip, last minute and went to the Happiest Place On Earth! It was fabulous. I loved having Mike around for an entire week. It was such a fun time and the girls had a wonderful time. We drove to St. George the first day, and the transmission went out in our car. WAHOO! What a wonderful way to start the vacay. So, we were stuck there, and decided that since we bought everything over the internet, and it was already paid for, we should still go. SO, we rented a van and drove the rest of the way the next day. We did not tell the girls where we were going, which ended up being a blessing because then we didnt get a million questions about when we were going to be there. We just drove there and they thought it was awesome that we got to stay in a hotel and swim :-D



My parents decided to drive over and meet us...another fun surprise for the girls! It was so nice to be with them and spend time with them.

We went to Sea World the first day we were in California. It was so much fun. We got some really cool pictures.



Then, we went to Disneyland the last two days. The girls are at such fun ages for this. And, I LOVE Disneyland! My mom and I were just as excited as the girls!







All in all, it was such a nice time. I love spending time with my family. Austin is such a good baby, and traveled so well. He did great during the trip and was just the chill baby that he is. Love him to pieces! The drive there and back was so nice. It was so nice to let the kids watch their movies in the car, and Mike and I just drove, and talked and laughed SOOOOO hard together...I love that!

So, thanks Mikey for spending your vacation time in Dizzyland. You are such a good hubby and daddy!

That sounds like so much fun. Bethany wanted to go to Disneyland this year but other things have gotten in the way, which was disappointing all the way around. But thanks to your pictures, she can live vicariously through you! Ha ha!

Sorry to hear about your vehicle. That's a bummer. I hope you guys are doing OK.
