And the Finale...Disneyland!

The last of our week's pictures are these taken at the Happiest Place on Earth! I have to admit that I wasn't looking forward to this trip considering how miserable the twins were with teething. Disneyland is hard enough when the two are happy and pain-free for heaven's sake! We decided to go ahead knowing that we would at least have a hotel room to take the kids back to for a nap during the day. So glad we did! All of us had such a great time getting on all of the big rides in less than 20 minutes each. Some like Indiana Jones, Splash Mountain and Pirates of the Caribbean, we actually just walked on-it was fabulous! Plus, we had my brother Richard with us who knows Disneyland all to well so we knew where to go and when. We planned to do some kiddie rides with Roman and Capri, but after the traumatic experience we had with Capri on the Winnie the Pooh ride, we opted for Toon Town, the Jungle Cruise and the train ride, which they loved! None of this would have worked, however, if my parents weren't the very bestest in the whole world. Not only did they get our rooms for free (gotta love those Marriot points, thanks for all the traveling you've done dad!), but they took the twins back for a nap and to get lunch at the room so we could have all of our fun. Am I the luckiest daughter ever?! Disneyland was the definite highlight of our week's vacation and ams so glad that I could be there with my family

I'm so glad you have such great parents, because I have to admit... I would be super scared to make that trip! I'm glad you guys had a good time! I seriously can't believe how big Roman and Capri are now; they are so cute!
