OK so this is going to be my first ever PTR but definately not my first DL trip! So please bear with me while I learn and possibly make mistakes! Thank you in advanced for being patient with me!!!
Ok so I guess I should start with our "cast"
There is me, Cathy...Im 35, my DH, Monte (also 35) and 3 kids, Luke (15) Jake(12) and DD Katelyn (8 but thinks she is 25 LOL dont all girls?!?)
I guess I should stick a pic in here (or at least try )so you can get a better visual (note...we didnt take Luke on our last trip,he couldnt go, had other obligations with school so I dont have a pic of all 5 of us at DL)
So from left to right we have Katelyn (with a silly face) Jake, me and DH.
I should also note that I am the worst picture taker in the WORLD! All of my pictures end up fuzzy or off center but I dont care and am just happy I can have pictures to put in my albums!
Here is a picture of Luke and Katelyn on the first day of school...Luke is 6'2" now, definately a tall tall boy!
OK back to our plans!! We are leaving on March7th, at 4 a.m. from Grants Pass Oregon. We had planned on driving down in our 1997 Chrysler Town & Country but after realizing that the only thing causing me stress about this trip was worrying that we would break down in this car, it had almost 150,000 miles! so my DH suprised me last week and bought me a 2008 Chrysler Town & Country that is in beautiful condition with VERY low miles, it is so beautiful inside and its the newest car ive ever owned...it may not be new in age, but definately knew to me...love that guy!
OMG I just realized im a rambler! lol sorry! So we are leaving at 4 a.m. and based on our previous trip we know it takes 12 hours to get to the hotel, so we plan on arriving around 4p.m. which basically gets us there in time to unpack, freshen up and get a nice meal in before we hit the parks for the next 5 days!
I'm going to post a few pics from our last trip....some of my favorites to break this PTR up a little because I am known to bore people when I go on and on and on, so here are a few of my favorites!
This is one of my favorites, my kids after the first day of DL...TIRED BABIES!
Katelyn and I on Dumbo...
Jake proving that you are NEVER too old to get a hug from Minnie Mouse and love it...
My daughters first time on California Screaming...I REALLY thought she was going to freak out and scream the whole time! I was even too scared at first to ride it, so I waited by the TV monitors to see how she did, yeah, I guess you can say I dont really have to worry about her on this ride anymore!!! LOL
This isnt at DL, its at Universal but I love how Katelyn & Jake really got into character for this picture....What a bunch of hams!
OK I think thats enough for now....Im not sure if I did this right or if any of this will come out but I hope im on the right track...I can post a few more pics if anyone is interested!??! would love to hear some feedback...
Thanks!
