Saydie's dance group did a performance at Disneyland. I wanted to send Saydie with Joy and her family because they were doing the whole 3-day Disneyland extravaganza and I REALLY didn't want to do it. (we did a 7 day trip to Disneyworld a few years back and ever since...let's just say that Disneyland is NOT my happiest place on earth.) But I felt too guilty pawning Saydie off on Joy so I decided to hop on up there, just me, Dax and Saydie.
Guess what?...it was actually FUN! That is totally the way to do a theme park; just 2 measley kids, not too old for the classics (like Tarzan's tree house,)
and not too young for the bigger roller coasters (like Space Mountain and Thunder Mountain Railroad.)
We just wandered around without anyone spazzing out to get a zillion rides on their favorite roller coaster or freaking out because they didn't get minnie mouse ears (reference to Disneyworld trip.) We ate when we were hungry, shopped when we saw cute things in a store front...
It was pretty chill. And when you are buying things (like cotton candy) for 2 kids instead of FIVE...it feels downright CHEAP!
This is how Dax stands in line:
It only looks like he is sitting sedately on a rock...he's actually climbing all over it at a million miles an hour. I can't tell you how many times someone told him to get off something. Here's a video of Dax at full speed (on a surfboard in a little play area.)
Did I mention that I forgot to bring my camera? Yep, these pictures (and video) are courtesy of my cell phone. Pathetic, I know.
I'm just going to add this in there because it's funny. This is at Knott's Berry Farm over the summer. I told Dax that this roller coaster was "scary fun", not "scary scary" Watch his face, he starts saying "It's scary-scary! It's scary-scary!" so I tell him to close his eyes and he won't be scared.
Pay no attention to that crazy lady sitting next to him. I think it's one of my sisters...Yep, definitely one of my sisters.

Hey, your phone takes pretty good pictures! It looks like so much fun! Then again, I LOVE Disneyland!
Woa. The look on Dax's face on the roller coaster reminds me of someone... oh. That would be me. Right before I'm about to puke.
That video makes me laugh out loud every time I see it. The size on your blog just doesn't do it justice. I think the crazy lady next to him must have been Sherry.:)
You have one HOT sister. Love the BLOG!!!!!
Love the family picture....Poor Dax...
That is the way to do Disney.....in shifts with less kids. I love it. Hey I am playing tennis again. Lets go to Seville soon. The weather is calling me to play, play, play!
