Last fall Randy started planning a Disneyland trip in which we would totally surprise the kids. This was a challenge to keep secret but we did, and when we arrived at the airport Wednesday night we let them know where we were going. Randy picked the kids up at school and told them we were going out for an early dinner and a movie. After dinner we went to the airport and while we unloaded our family at the curb we told them we were flying to Disneyland. After jumping and screaming we started our fun family Disney vacation. ZMan told us it was the best day of his life.

For the first time ever, we stayed at a Disney hotel, Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel. Randy found a great deal and there were some fun perks that we were able to use. The walk was about 15 minutes and the hotel was nice. It was great being so close to the park.

We spent 3 days going through Disneyland and California Adventure Park. I think we made it to all of the rides the kids wanted and of course many of them we went on several times. We meet and got pictures and autographs of lots of characters. On our last day we even walked back to our room for some rest and naps so we could make it to the fireworks without meltdowns.
I was so sad to come home and we are already planning our next Disney vacation which we will take the my sister's family.
