Disneyland was so awesome!!

In toontown we like to act like dorks.
But everyone was doing it, so it's cool. Isn't that the rule?

In line for Indiana Jones, I heard Adam talking to mostly himself saying, "Those people who are already done and getting off are so lucky". I promise I didn't force him on the ride, he wanted to try it, but he didn't go on anymore after that.
P.S Look at me posing like I think I'm all that and a bucket of chips. Swear it wasn't on purpose.

Skizzy mapping out his next thrill.

Pirates of the Caribbean was not a good thrill for Isaac. He spent the whole time like this on my shoulder. Of course I would never choose to have my kid scared, but how cute is that to have your child snuggle you the whole time? LOVE IT. To prove that I am not an opportunist, I didn't take him on the ride again. So there.

We love going into downtown Disney and into the Disney store to try on all the rockin hats.

I think Adam looks a little like Matthew in that goofy hat.

Isaac LOVED the carousel. LOVED LOVED LOVED
that damned carousel. I was so dizzy and nauseous after the 20th time.
But who doesn't want to see that sweet little face of his when he's in his element?

There are lots more pictures, but that's just a taste of how much fun we had last week. Disneyland rocks!! (Despite what Dad and Melissa says)

Natalie

Natalie is an amazing young woman. She is the Beehive class president. She made the High Honor Roll with a 4.0 grade point!!! We were so excited. She has been invited to go to UVU for a math competition this month. She is now 5' 11" and is playing the piano beautifully. She is very excited that she turns 14 this month. She still reads anything put in front of her. I borrowed "The Undaunted" from Kristy to read. It took me a couple of weeks. Nat read it in three days. Punk!

Tanner

Tanner is an awesome scout. This is the pack meeting where he received the last of ALL 20 Webelos awards! This hasn't been done for a while in our pack. It is also the pack meeting where he received his Arrow of Light. Keep in mind this was back in October. Now he is earning Merit Badges in his 11-year-old scout troop. On Sunday he had a Board of Review where they asked him what his goals for scouting were. He wants to have his Eagle by 14!!! Go Tanner. The last picture is a sugar cube castle he built. He had a report to do on castles and wanted to do a little extra credit "just in case."

Katy

Katy won Reflections again in the Visual Arts for her age group. This is the third year she entered and the third year she received a trophy. Her art didn't go past the Council level, but who cares! She drew each of these flowers herself and then decorated with various craft items. Isn't she a sweetie?

Emma

Emma lost her first tooth!!! Two days after her 5th birthday. She also has double ear infections, apparently. Brian and I noticed that she wasn't hearing as well as normal. You know, other than the normal mommy deaf act. It was starting to worry us and so I took her in to see if they could clean out the wax. OH NO! No wax was blocking her hearing. Her ears were "bulging" according to the doctor and her left ear drum had ruptured. The "bulging" was blocking her hearing. Apparenlty, she has had this condition for at least two weeks he figured if not longer. She did complain about her ear one day. I dismissed it. Mother of the year right here guys!!!
