Disneyland Extravaganza!!!!

We just got back from a week in California!!!!! We spent 4 days at Disneyland!!!! Yah hoo! I LOVE IT!!! We stayed at the Grand California Adventure this time and it was AMAZING! The hotel has its own private entrance to the California side of the park. This is the girls fourth time at Disneyland so I know that the pictures seem like a repeat, but I will never get sick of it! I'm like a little kid again because I am soooooo excited for Charley and Lenni..... I always get the giggles every morning walking into the park! Every night that we get back to the hotel we fall into bed completely exhausted!!! Anyway..... This trip we tried the breakfast with Minnie and friends and LOVED it! There were so many characters there (a lot more than the pictures show) and the girls couldn't get enough! Buying annual passes was so worth it for us this year! Can't wait to go again.... although I will say we will probably never go in April again (spring break season) the park was a little to busy this trip, but still a blast!

The Vent!

Okay.... I really haven't felt like blogging lately. Our little family has been sick, sick, sick, and I am sooooooooooooo over it!!!! I was thinking that Lenni and Rob had pneumonia, and at one point Charley's fever was almost 105. Talk about scary when your by yourself. I am so thankful that they are feeling better. Being a mother and a wife to a sick brood is extremely hard when you don't feel good yourself. I have been feeling pretty crappy for 2 months.... wink, wink (a very happy crappy) and finally caught what the rest of the clan had. No one cares when mom doesn't feel well..... I am still expected to do my job. I guess that I have to say right now, that I am so very thankful to my MOM and DAD. When we were younger the famous line at our house when you didn't feel well was.... "Get up and shake it off"! For some reason that has stuck with me through out my life. I always try to get up and shake it off and for some reason it works for me. Anyway, it seems that the girls are feeling much better and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Sometimes it takes being sick to really be thankful for our health and appreciate how awesome it is to feel great! We are going on another vacation in a week and I couldn't be anymore excited (split leaps across the grass excited!!!)...... Despite everyone being sick the last few weeks, our life is pretty dang GOOD and I LOVE IT!

About the pictures..... Could these two be any CUTER?????

Just have to clarify one thing..... My mom when we were younger took very good care of us when we were sick. She was very compassionate towards us. Her example that she set was a shake it off example! She never took time for herself being the mother of five and working her tail off even when she didn't feel well.
