Disney and cousins and swimming, oh my!

Suddenly it's mid-2011, Mia is about to start 2nd grade, Gideon is about to start kindergarten (1st of 2 years due to his birthday) and life is just...well it's changing fast around here so I figured it was time to start keeping track of it all in one place again.

The kids and I are visiting family in SoCal and are blessed with family that will take us in and share in the wealth that is the Disney Employee Discount. We stayed at the Disneyland Hotel in an amazing suite overlooking the pools. We watched the fireworks from the room (just the girls since the boys passed out while watching Fantasia. We gorged on desserts and snacks in the lounge. Good times.

We have been living it up in the pool, napping until late in the day, giggling and giggling.

Yesterday while Gideon was napping he rolled over and exclaimed "I like cool stuff!" and was out again. It's true, he does like cool stuff.

Saturday is the little cousin's birthday party (3! He will be 3!) and then sunday it's back to reality for a little bit. Still summer...not completely reality...but not vacation.
