Happiest Place on Earth

We survived Tax Season...so, to celebrate, we packed up the kids in the family van and headed off to DISNEYLAND. We met up with Troy's parents and his sister, Bobi, and her family there and had a blast. I can't say that it was the Happiest Place on Earth for Darrin (when he would get off a ride he would dart out of the building, collapse on the ground outside and start bawling, almost like he was so grateful that he survived the ride!) Needless to say, we only took him on two rides and after the outbursts we figured it wasn't worth torturing him.

His favorite sites were:

Playhouse Disney Live on Stage

The Choo-Choo Train Ride

Buzz Lightyear

His new buddy, Brock

Max was just happy to hang out in the stroller and kick-back a bottle of formula. He fell asleep in his stroller a couple of times; however, he HAS to sleep on his stomach, so his little feet would hang down out of the stroller and it was hilarious looking.

Max's favorite event was the pool. It was his first time swimming and he LOVED to splash. We started calling him the "Splash Monster" because he would get in the pool and just start splashing like crazy. He would get water all over his face and he didn't even care. We even started chasing Darrin around the pool with Max trying to splash him and he would make a funny monster noise. What a character!
All in all, it was a great trip. It was nice to spend some time with our kids and Troy's family and just get to relax a little!
