Well, it's a momentous day. It's December 1, and we now have just ...
99 days
until our trip!!!
It seems like so long and so short at the same time. I know the next month will be lost to planning (other than the Trip Reveal as I have dubbed it). I love the holidays but I have much to do as I mentioned a couple days ago.
In honor of it being a short, sweet 99 days away, I gift y'all with NINE photos (you really didn't want to sit through NINETY-NINE now, did you?) of our last big trip in October 2009. As I was exporting these photos, it kills me how young my kids look in them. Three years is a world of difference, whether it's from 4 to 7, from 13 to 16, or in between.
Behold!
(apologies for the hugeness -- I think my exporting screwed up and I'm too lazy to re-do all 9 again)
From the "you can't do that at Disneyland any more" file, my kids on the Mickey statue at the DLH just after we arrived.
Posing on the Dumbo prop after riding it.
DD (then 10) and I just behind the empty seat (and DS13 next to us). I can't believe DH caught the takeoff on camera. DD was really scared for the first 1.5 seconds and then spent the rest of the ride yelling, "This is so awesome!" Yep, another generation of coaster fans.
DD and DS hugging Stitch, DS's favorite. A CM had told me Stitch wouldn't be out that day, but we came around a corner in Hollywood and there he was!!
The kids with the must-have Mickey bars. Whatever these three don't eat, DS16 will mop up.
DS contemplating how to get the sword out of the stone.
We got to meet Tinkerbell and Fawn in the rain. Thankfully our CM friend helped us jump ahead of the half-hour line and get us in quickly. I need to find out where she will be working in March!
Another thing you can't do any more ... feed a swarm of koi at the Disneyland Hotel.
The ubiquitous picture in front of the Partners statue and the castle. I think we just traded with another family.
I hope you enjoyed these photos. I can't wait to go back and take more!!
