Disney Surprise!

We surprised our boys with a trip to Disney land! It was SO much fun. A few months ago- Ben's aunt Pam started talking about how much fun it would be to go on a family trip before his little brother graduates and goes into the Army. As she started planning it- we thought how fun it would be if our boys didn't know anything about it- and were surprised. So they knew NOTHING! :D We told them we were going to visit with Nana and Bompa (Ben's mom and dad who live in Arizona) And we did visit them- just not at their house in Arizona!


The WHOLE family came except for Ben's one aunt and uncle who couldn't get off work. There were over 30 of us on vacation.


Here's a bunch of us on Thursday AM- Look at the cool shirts my SIL Amber made for everyone! We all had matching shirts for the trip.

Bug-Another bunch of us in front of The MatterhornThe cousins had fun together

Doodle is always tricky to get good pics of ;) Here's Ben and Doodle getting ready for a train ride.Me, Bug and Roo on the little train.

Roo LOVED the Carousel -- he did NOT love Splash Mountain "I HATE that ride!" he bawled.
We spent Fri morning at Disneyland- then Friday afternoon we headed for the beach-

Bug and his cousin K playing in the Ocean waves. Doodle and I built a cool sand castle
