The Happiest Place on earth--DISNEYLAND!


The Dancers

The smokey sky


The Incredibles--aka...Russ and LaNae in a few short weeks!




We love Disneyland--it was a little different this year because of the fires that were close by. Saturday, when Cassie, Carlee, and Cami were dancing--you could see little pieces of ash in the air and it was pretty irritating to your eyes. Then the whole sky was covered with smoke but at least it wasn't far enough down that you had to breathe it. It just smelled like you were camping. This was the first year in a very long time that we all got to go on the rides together--thanks to some platform shoes for Chloe. She thought she was pretty big and loved all the scary rides--Tower of Terror and Space Mountain. Each time we were in line they would measure her twice because she was so close but I think some of the workers might have been intimidated by all 8 of us standing around to make sure she made it!! It was a great trip. We had to take a different route home on Saturday night because the 91 freeway was on fire so they had it completely closed off. We had to go back up through Los Angeles and north a little but it only ended up taking us an extra 20 minutes to get home which was a good thing since it was 4:30 in the morning.
