We went to Disneyland recently for a "reunion" with Greg's immediate family. There were 15 of us in all. We left Wednesday and came home Saturday. Thanks to Greg's parents it was a blast. We were lucky enough to stay in the California Adventure Hotel which made it so much easier for all of us with kids since it is right there next to Disneyland. Kim, Greg's sister, made everyone t-shirts with their team name. Shari and Don were Team Dorkis; Brad and Corina were Team Schrute (from The Office); Kim and Josh were Team Pink; we were Team Sexy (bet you can't guess who came up with that!); and then Jeff, Katie, and Melanie were Team Single. It was so much fun and we quickly learned it was easy to find everyone if we got seperated. The other 2 days weren't so easy.
Axton got to meet all sorts of characters, not that he has a clue as to who or what they are but it was fun for us.
Axton was such a champ through all of it. We took him on all the rides we could and he did so good. He didn't cry at all. He was pretty fascinated with all the lights and noises. I could believe how loud most of the rides were but it didn't phase him. This picture was on Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.
Axton and Brooklynn were exhausted. Props to Grandma and Grandpa who got them both to sleep while we were all on a ride. They have the magic touch.
Greg ordered ribs at one of the restaurants we ate at and Axton thought they looked really yummy!! We gave him one to chew on and he was in heaven until we took it away when we left.
We had a great time at Disneyland and we owe all the thanks to Shari and Don who made it all happen for each and everyone. They do so much for all of their kids and grandkids. I couldn't have asked for better in-laws.
