Disneyland!

We had a really fun time last week in California. Dan had some business to do at the Anaheim Convention center for a few days, so the kids and I were able to tag along and have a couple of fun days at Disneyland. It was so nice to get out of the winter weather, and enjoy soaking up some sun. I was really nervous about traveling with four kids, it seemed kinda crazy to drive 12 hours with four kids ages 7 and under. It was however, surprisingly a smooth drive. Jence is the best baby. He basically ate and slept the entire drive (perk of bottle feeding you don't have to pull over, I could reach him and feed him from his car seat). Thanks to DVD's, and iphone games the older kids were well entertained. We stayed at a wonderful hotel a couple blocks from Disney and the Convention center. The days we didn't go to the parks we swam at the hotel. And one night headed to the beach. We got lost trying to find a beach, but get there just in the nick of time to see the sun setting. The trip went by so fast, and It's hard to be back. I spent so much time anticipating the trip, that it's a little bit of a bummer now that we are home. We were welcomed by a freezing house, (our furnace broke), and a leaking kitchen ceiling (valve in our bathroom right above our kitchen broke of course it happened while we were gone so it had a few days to constantly drip, and run through our ceiling)! And of course there's the expected bummer's which include: mountains of laundry, catchup homework, empty fridge, pile's of mail, and all of the other chores that pile of at the end of the month, and O-yeah, I haven't been to the gym in weeks. Oh, California I want to come back. I want to feel the sunshine on my face, see the beautiful palm trees, enjoy the carefree days of housekeeping, and eating out every night. I guess this little taste of summer was just enough to get me through till the weather warms up, the kids are out of school, and then the relaxation of lazy summer day's can set in. Just a few more months!
