Disneyland Trip #2

In May, my siblings and I took our second trip to California to visit Lauren and go to Disneyland. We flew into Long Beach Saturday night and raced to a comedy/improv club where they were doing "Streep Tease". Julie was obsessed with Meryl Streep at the time and heard of this show where an all male cast recited monologues from Meryl Streep movies. It was pretty funny, especially since Julie won the prize for the biggest Meryl Streep fan. Dan was excited because some guy from the TV show Friends was in the cast (yes, some guy, I didn't know who he was haha) We went to church with Lauren on Sunday and her friends pointed out that we were the stoplight sisters - with our red, yellow, and green purses. After our miserable, wet evening in January, we came prepared with ponchos for this trip. We got some really funny looks while we were waiting in line for Grizzly River Rapids, but we were the ones laughing when everyone else got soaked. About a week before we left I was trying to fall asleep and had this scathingly brilliant idea, we should have a "bump-it" day at Disneyland. So, I bought a couple packages of bump-its and we all got one to wear to the park. As you can tell, Lauren was the only one who could figure out how to get it to work. We also made Dan spike his hair so we all had big hair (well, as big as you can get in our family) Lauren ROCKING the bump-it! Lauren wanted to get on Dan's back for this picture - it didn't really work out that well, but the experience did give my siblings their new favorite phrase "What is the 'h' guys!" Some of Lauren's friends met up with us our last night there - of course we were all tired, so general craziness ensued. Basically it was another fabulous trip to Disneyland with more fabulous memories.

Why is it funny that I won biggest fan? Hahahahahaha. OK. I was really obsessed. The obsession has calmed a bit. At least until her next movie comes out. :) Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
