During Sydney's spring break back in April, we threw a few pretty fun surprises at the kids. The two biggest surprises is when the kids woke up finding that Grandma Kay who flew in from
Penang,
Malaysia the night before and was
asleep in the living room. The second surprise is that they found suitcases scattered around the house with the news that were we all going to Disneyland!

We had been going back and forth about going to Disneyland for the past couple of months, but couldn't really commit going for one reason to another. So Wednesday night about 10:30 p.m. with Grandma just arriving Anson made the decision and said, "We are going to Disneyland tomorrow morning. Let's get packing!" So we packed up as much as we could that night, finished up the following morning and headed off by 8 a.m. The kids were completely shocked that Grandma was here and we were going to Disneyland. I do have to say I was pretty excited myself.

By 4:00 p.m. Thursday we found ourselves in our first line at the happiest place on earth.

My mom was such a trooper. She had just arrived to the United States with some serious jet lag,
grand kids telling her every story they could, stuffed in the back seat between to car seats for a 6 hour drive after flying and traveling 32 hours with little to no sleep.

Here is the end result after our first day at Disney! Complete exhaustion from all of the excitement and fun.

One of my favorite pictures of Camden. Too tired to even noticed that he was moved and changed into his
jammies. He stayed in this position for about twenty minutes as we finished getting settled into the hotel and finding our night time stuff.

Friday morning...up and ready to go!

Sydney taking a turn with my camera while waiting in line.



Look closely! Anson caught this very cute picture of Camden trying his very hardest to pull the sword out of the stone. It would just not budge!

Family photo of Sydney's absolute favorite ride ever, Splash Mountain. We must have rode that ride at least 10 times in 3 days.

Look at sweet Camden. Not too sure about the ride. Check out our
last photo two years back. His expression is almost identical.

Sydney's smile of relief after finishing the Raiders of the Lost Ark. She was
sooo happy!


I love Camden's expressions in the next two pictures as we are waiting outside before one of the 3-D shows. Both kids HATED the 3-D
Muppets show and the 3-D Bugs Life show. Yes HATED!

At one point Sydney and Camden tried to run out of the theater. We had to grab both kids, take off their glasses and hug them tight.

Camden's most favorite, calming and happiest ride!


Our last and final night in the hotel after a few days at Disney.

Packed up and ready to head home waiting for Anson to bring the car around. Smiles all around. We can't wait to go back.

Wonderful pictures of a great vacation. Kay mentions something everyday about the great time and great memories of the time you and your family share with her.
