Do We Actually Get to Go In?

After the hideous week with Hayden, we went to see Rob's family in St. George. We got half way there and his mom called. "You've had such an awful time lately, we thought it might raise everybody's spirits to go to Disneyland."

We rolled into St. George, bought some good walking shoes for Hayden, Rachel and myself loaded our luggage into Frank & Judy's mini-van and off we went. We didn't tell the kids where we were going (they know Grandpa likes to go to Vegas so they assumed that was where he was taking us). Lauren caught me loading the luggage & said "There is no way we are just going for a drive with all that crap in the car mom. Where are we really going?" (she's had one too many surprise vacations to be caught off guard anymore-bummer)

Grandma let her in on the secret & it wasn't until Primm when the other kids started whining about our long car ride that Grandma told them we were going to Disneyland. After the cheering died down, Rachel asked "Wait, do we actually get to go in?"

We did go in and it was LOADS of fun (a little too crowded but that's why we usually go in January but it was still a wonderful trip) Thanks for bringing some happiness back into April Grandma & Grandpa!!

It's been so long since we last came to Disneyland that Rachel & Hayden didn't remember it...They loved it & cried when we had to leave!


Poor Hayden looks so tired...he was such a trooper (as was Rob who was Hayden's Sherpa- carrying him through the parks for 3 days)
