One the third day, we were joined by my brother Ryan and his kids, Laney and Myles. It was a great end to an awesome vacation. I think the picture speak for themselves!

Making Magic – Day II
Posted in Disneyland, vacation on February 28, 2010 | 5 Comments »
9:00 am – California Adventures awaits We traveled 7 hours and over 300 miles to take a picture in front of the Golden Gate Bridge. Skye’s favorite ride. Interestingly, the Haunted Mansion frightens her. Gettin’ buggy with it. I apologize. At this point, we’d only been in line 10 minutes. Giant talkin’ Mr. Potato Head. [...]

In just a few hours, the littles and I (along with my mom) are heading out for the Happiest Place on Earth. I’ll post updates as I can, but I have a feeling I’ll be pretty wiped out at the end of each day. I’ll do a big one when we get back Saturday night. [...]

Visiting Our Friends "Down South"

Last Saturday, I packed up my three youngest (how many people get to say that!) and headed South… no, not that far south. Just down below SF, to my hometown of San Jose… well, almost to San Jose. San Jose adjacent, to be more specific. We were going to visit my childhood bestest friend forever [...]
A little hump day quickie
Posted in Disneyland, gluten-free, vacation on May 27, 2009 | 2 Comments »
No, not that kind of quickie. Just a brief posting from the heart of Disneyland… well, ok about three blocks away. At the Travelodge. Sean’s in the shower and I’m on-hold with the Rainforest Cafe in Downtown Disney, waiting to talk to the chef. I’d love to take Sean there for lunch, a great ending [...]
Just call him Wheezy
Posted in asthma, Disneyland, vacation on May 21, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Poor Sean. An innocent afternoon of swimming in the grandparents’ pool turned into a trip to Urgent Care and a full round of steroids. Somehow, an hour in the pool triggered an asthma attack, the likes of which he hasn’t had in nearly 18 months. His doctor thinks that the pool chemicals have something to [...]

We’ll be “on the road again… I just can’t wait to get on the road again…” My parents used to sing that at the start of every freakin’ vacation I can remember taking as a child. And now… I do too! My mom, my sister and I are taking my little Skye McKenna to Disneyland [...]
