Well for starters this is my first trip report, our first trip to Disneyland, and my first road trip with my good friend Michelle, her kids and her mom(who is more like Cruella De ville).

We will be leaving early in the morning December 22 @ 5 AM.
Destination~~ Disneyland

Hotel- Castle Inn (my first time here I have heard the good, the bad and the ugly about this place. But next Christmas I am staying at the Disneyland hotel, also I am going to be at the Poly or WL in March for the Princesses & tiaras (aka Debs dirty thirty party @ WDW, and then a time share in Aug 08). So this trip will be offsite, and at a cheaper hotel. My kids are fine with this...hehe its a suprise, they have no clue, they think we are staying at a cabin in Oregon somewhere, so they have to be ok with the hotel. Besides we will be in the Parks most of the time anyway.

The Players~~
tada...
Me-Debbie 29, a mom, a student, a little grouchy, a little princess, a little like Lilo, a little like Belle, more like Pocahontas (sp), as I am 1/2 Navajo Indian. I will go with Belle.

DS11- Jordan 11, sporty, athletic, in 5th grade, hormonal, emotional (why didnt someone tell me about boys??) more like grumpy, a little like the boy from Pollyanna. We will just call him Jordan, Jordy Pordy, J-man, or Grumpy.

DS7- Kaeleb 7, STITCH!! all the way Stitch is his favorite character,
loves the ride that SallyRally ( Campellscott SDD), finds offensive, truthfully the ride I found a little vulgar also. He is in 2nd grade, he will be Stitch.


The K Clan
Friend-Michelle 30, my friend since 7th grade, she loves Tink. Also a student, will graduate in the Spring, and lives with her mom.

girl- Mariah 7,princess tomboy like, a 2nd grader, we have to keep a close eye on her and make sure that she doesnt overwhelm her self. When she was 1.5 she had a heart valve replacement surgery and well her ticker is getting sick again. She will be 'rella.

boy- Vallant 11, huuummm lets go with Harry, Harry Potter that is, he loves HP. He is also in 5th grade, a little athletic, and a good kid.

mom- Dianne ?? humm *cough* older than Tink & Belle!! She is Tinks mom, rather grouchy, way more than I. Claims she rules the world, she is the driver of this nice road trip. (hence, why I will be stashing some Capnt morgan & Rasp vodka in my luggage, love her to death, but a very demanding, overbearing mother, glad shes not mine). She would be the MIL you would hate, but a very giving mother, and grandma. She is paying for gas, and tink, Harry, and 'rellas trip. We will call her Evil Step mom or Cruella, dont worry, she likes it, she knows it, she lives it.
This will be the Kclans 4th trip to DL for Christmas, so jealous.
