Disneyland & Thanksgiving


We just returned from 5 days in Los Angeles. We went to Santa Monica, Newport Beach, and 2 days at Disneyland and California Adventure. The weather was great, although it rained on our last day. The kids had fun, but we think Kyle & Zoe had the most fun. When we were at California Adventure the kids did get to see the Jonas Brothers, they were there doing a special filming. The 2 older girls were able to get pictures of them. Zoe was very excited to see them too. It was a mob scene, girls were screaming like crazy, and some were actually crying. I had to laugh when I saw that. The drive home took us close to 9 hours due to holiday traffic. (We forgot about holiday traffic!)

We had Thanksgiving yesterday with our families, a very busy day. We had 3 stops to make. I think we are going to have to change that in the future, no time to relax and enjoy the day. We went to my Brothers, Micky's family, then to my Dad's house. Exhausted by the end of the day!

Today we are cooking a turkey for the 6 of us, relaxing, and catching up on some sleep. Now onto the next holiday, does it ever stop?

Christmas has become so commercial, we have lost sight on what it really means. Our oldest daughter suggested that we help at a local dinning hall on Christmas day, so that may be what we are doing this year. I thought that was a great idea coming from our 17 year old, Kalie has grown into a great woman.

Happy Holidays & Stay Safe!
