Footprints in the sand


These are Leah's footprints in the sand. This was one of my "living in the moment" moments!

Disneyland Vacation








This year as an early Christmas present we took a trip to Disneyland. The park is gorgeous during Christmas. It was Christmas everywhere. There were huge Christmas trees, wreathes and Christmas music played at the park all day. At the end of each day they had a parade and fireworks. After the fireworks "I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas" played and it would snow in the park. We spent 2 fun filled days there. The first day we had lunch with the princesses. That was hilarious! At one point Leah made a mad dash for Cinderella and attacked here with a hug. The rest of the time we played and went on ALL the rides. We got to meet almost all the characters. Leah was funny because she attacked all the characters. She was like an animal looking for prey. She watch them carefully and them when the coast was clear she would run up and hug them. At one point she got a hold of Eeyore and wouldn't let go.

On the 3rd day we went to the beach. The weather was beautiful. The girls loved the sand and water. Right before we left Leah got really brave and went out too far. A wave scooped her up and knocked her down. You can see how upset she is in the picture.

I was so sad to come home. Disneyland brings out the lost child in me. I was almost giddy the whole time at the park. I am sure I walked around with a smile on my face all day.

P.S. The park was not at all crowded. If you ever want to take a trip to Disneyland do it during the first half of December.
