Well, I guess it's time for me to get back to blogging... I've been busy getting everything back in order after our trip to California, and didn't have time to post anything while we were gone.
We spent April 27-May 6th in California, spending time at Disneyland and many of the attractions in San Diego. Since I have thousands (literally, I'm afraid) of pictures, I'm going to cover one venue per blog...
Happy Birthday to Me!

We spent my 36th birthday at Disneyland - the happiest place on earth, indeed! What a great day! The kids thought it was pretty special to be able to take Mommy to Disneyland for her birthday. We spent 3 days there, and could have easily stayed a few more. No one wanted to leave. The kids (all 4 of us) rode on everything from the mild "It's A Small World" to the wild Space Mountain (for those of you who've never had that joyous experience, it's a high-speed roller coaster in the pitch black dark with "stars" all around you, and you never know what direction you're headed next until it happens). Here's some of the highlights:

Saying "Hi" to a bunch of the characters in the parade
A couple of jail birds trying to escape
The kids loved the roller coasters - now they put their arms in the air for everything (including in the stroller at the Zoo)!

Our Prince Charming
Grace with Princess Ariel and Cinderella - she was beside herself when meeting these lovely ladies

Cinderella was great - she took both of the kids aside and talked to them, even showed Grace how to take a picture like a "real" princess.

Mid-day two. A lady walked by and asked if we had a camera so she could take our picture... she thought the kids napping in the middle of Disneyland was a classic shot.

Disneyland/California Adventure is truly an experience not to be missed. David was not keen on the idea of this trip, but after walking into the park the first day he changed his mind, and even he can't wait to go back!
