On the road again

Anything to keep the kids busy, right?


Acrobat show at Circus Circus


Getting ready to watch the show

Once we bought our tickets time slowed down. Scott and I didn't tell the kids we were going to Disneyland and it was really hard to keep quiet. We would lay in bed at night and talk about how much fun it was going to be and get ourselves so excited we lost a lot of sleep. A week before we were supposed to leave the weather dropped down to the 20s so I told him we were leaving earlier and staying at a hotel. I couldn't stand to be missing out on 50 degree warmer weather.

The kids went to school on Monday and after dinner was over Scott told the kids we were going to Dairy Queen so go hop in the car. We drove for about 45 minutes before Alyssa started asking where we were going. He said to get ice cream. She said why didn't we just go to the one by our house? Then he told the kids we were going to Disneyland. They didn't believe him. It took us almost a full 5 minutes to convince them that was where we were going. I was laughing so hard. I had him record it because I had this vision of the perfect Disney commercial where the kids get so excited, tell their parents how much they love them, etc. I'm glad we recorded it anyway because it was pretty funny.

We stayed the night with Uncle Kelly and Brie (thanks guys) and then stopped in Vegas for lunch and a show at Circus Circus. And then finally on our way to sunny California!
