    Travel Day! We drove to Anaheim. It took all day. We listened to General Conference on the drive. And ate McDonalds and ordered Pizza once we got checked in. We stayed at the Anaheim Desert Inn which is right across from the entrance to Disneyland!

    Hotel Life – Tiago made a little bed in the corner. Millie on the floor between the beds. Cali and Rose on one bed and Ben and I on one bed. Then Benji and Packer were on the hide-a-bed in the front part and Ray on the couch cushions by them. All Snuggly!

    We went on the roof to watch the Disney fireworks and get ExCiTeD!!

    We all woke up to a stink bomb in the kids bathroom!! It stunk so bad all morning. And Ben played the worst nursery rhymes to wake the kids up. There were googly eyes all over the house and all of the kids found rubber duckies in their backpacks at school!

    A bunch of the kids had sore throats and a few of them stayed home for a day. And the kids got haircuts.

    And Lambeau! He’s in teenager mode… he found the hole in the garbage can and was eating the garbage. And he will always look for Millie to leave her cereal bowl out on the table so he can finish it.
