This year we decided to take off for the long holiday weekend! It was a big change from the traditional turkey dinner with family, but we had a blast! Disneyland was our destination. Grammie, Lydi, Gary and I headed out Thursday morning and came home Sunday night! We squeezed more fun and excitement into three days than you might believe!
Lydia was skeptical of the characters at first, but definitely warmed up to them by the second day! Gary was in awe, this being his FIRST trip! How does one go thirty something years without seeing the most magical place on earth?!?! Mom was loving every minute of it...she's been a few times in the last few years...I think it will always be one of her most favorite places!
There were definitely A LOT of people with our same idea ;) But when my mom and I mentioned the 45 minute lines to one of the over-zealous "cast members," he was quick to let us know this was one of their "slower weekends." We'll just say I'd hate to see busy if that was slow!
Here are some pictures of us braving the crowd and having a great time...
(had to throw this one in...little evelyn here entertained Lydia for 30 min plus while we waited for a show to start. She was SOOO cute...notice her 6'5" sister next to her...she too was so tall! Looked 11, acted 5..true age: 7, we loved her!)

What a fun trip! I'm glad you were able to get away. Little Lydi is growing up so fast. That picture of her in the scarf is killing me. What a doll. Hope you're well.

Looks like so much fun! I have been trying to decide if Maren is too young to take to Disneyland. I guess not!
What a fun idea! Zac and I thought about going after Christmas but decided against it because it will be sooo busy. Looks like cute Lydi had a blast...and no I cannot believe Gary has never been!
Disneyland? So jealous. I love that place & glad Lydia got to have her first experience there. What fun.
