MK: On the road yet? SC: Yes, just getting ice.
MK: Yay!
SC: Wave as we drive by . . . . :)
MK: ! You aren’t stopping for pizzookies?
SC: Sorry. If we stop, we’ll be there a little while. It’ll already be after midnight when we get there.
MK: Fine. But tell your kids Fav made them pizzookies, but Mean Mommy won’t stop.
SC: I’ll do that.
MK: Kids too excited to sleep?
MK: Are you there yet?
SC: Guess how many times we’ve heard that one so far?
MK: 83?
SC: Close.
MK: Nice.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SC (at 1 a.m.): We are all TOO excited!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MK: Yay! I assume kids are up now, ready to go?
MK: Gisneyland! Take pictures for Fav!
SC: They were most definitely up.
MK: :) Are they too excited? Tell them Fav says you can’t eat too much sugar on vacation.
SC: I don’t think they need any sugar.
MK: Of course you don’t. You are the Mommy.
SC: Gah. We went the wrong way down Harbor.
MK: You are stealing gisneyland time from your children.
SC: We’ll just miss part of our early hour.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MK: What’s the plan for today? Princess line?
SC: Sat. for princesses. Rides today.
SC: I think that Tangled ride is actually where you meet the characters, not a ride at all.
MK: Awe. Too sad. For you I mean. Karen must be psyched!
SC: She says she’s tired from walking. Bad news Karen.
MK: Carry her!
SC: :|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MK: Are you waiting in line for something?
SC: Nemo sub. We’re on now.
MK: Yay! That’s the best one!
SC: I think they’re all the best one.
MK: And only a few hours wait for each one.
SC: Pulling Mommy’s hair is hilarious!
MK: Oh good! Caleb got my text!
SC: Yeah he did.
MK: Give him more sugar and he will stop.
MK: I mean, after he crashes into a sugar coma that is.
SC: I don’t think that’s true. It sounds like a trick.
MK: Worth a try?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MK: Kids tired of Disneyland yet?
SC: Karen was scared of the Mansion.
SC (from Pirates ride): Dang. All the rides are creepy. Poor Karen.
MK: Even Caleb liked Mansion. Has she liked any yet?
SC: She likes parts.
MK: What’s her favorite so far?
SC: She says it will be tea cups. We’ll see. They might be creepy.
MK: :)
SC: Casey Jr Train was too fast and scary. Giving tea cups a whirl.
SC: Official verdict on tea cups: they’re really fast and I like them. :)
MK: All the kids?
SC: Well, Karen and Sarah. Noah didn’t want to go. I traumatized Sarah on TMR.
SC: Mmm overpriced food.
MK: Sarah was bragging about space mountain and she was scared of TMR?
SC: After that she decided not to do space mountain either.
MK: But she’s done it before! Well, at least make her do Tower of Terror. Tell her even Fav did, and Fav’s a wimp.
SC: She says Fav is not a wimp, and yes, she’s still going on it. Probably.
MK: Tell her it’s okay, I’m a self proclaimed wimp.
SC: She says "Whatever."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MK: They still having fun or getting tired
SC: Noah wants to be done. I think the rest are still okay.
MK: Poor Noah. What are you guys doing now?
SC: In line for Peter Pan. Caleb likes waving at boats.
MK: Just don’t let him touch the butt.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MK: Disneyland Day 2!
SC: You mean CA.
MK: Ah. Kids like it as much?
SC: Doesn’t open for half hour. Getting in line for color show.
MK: Nice!
MK: Film it on your fancy phone for me.
SC: They let us in early. Yay! Wait, how did you know I stole your fancy phone?
MK: Yay for early!
MK: Was it cause you have annoying kids?
SC: Well, mostly because I’m pushy. :)
MK: So they let only you in early?
SC: No, everyone. :) To get the fast passes. Rides aren’t running yet.
MK: Did you ditch the kids yet?
SC: Planning to.
MK: Holly says make Sarah go on that rafting one.
SC: She already knows about that one.
MK: Dang. Tell her Fav went on it, and Fav’s a wimp.
SC: She does not believe you. "For the last time, Fav is not a wimp."
MK: I’m not? I’m going to have to rethink my whole life now.
SC: It’s raining. My hair is going to look awesome.
MK: It’s always raining in CA. Is it cold too? Holly says you should do dredlocks.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MK: So, back at the hotel with kids in bed yet?
SC: Just got back from World of Color. In the pouring rain. The kids loved the rain so much. :|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MK: Day 3! Yay!
SC: Happy Birthday to Caleb!
MK: Yay! Give him candy for breakfast. He earned it.
MK: Also, are you having a birthday party for him Monday that I’m not invited to?
MK: It’s like you don’t want me mailing him a giant box of candy!
SC: You’re invited. Also I gave him a Swedish fish for breakfast. :)
MK: It feels like a pity invite now.
SC: You were always invited. You’re Fav. It goes without saying.
MK: You didn’t even tell me about it. I had to hear about it from Emily.
SC: Didn’t I? Huh.
MK: Well, since it’s Monday, I can’t make it. But be assured he will be getting an awesome birthday present next time I’m down.
SC: K :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MK: So, kids didn’t like sitting in the cold rain last night?
SC: Noooo. And they made sure we did not forget that fact.
MK: :) Poor kids. Did they each need their own blanket?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MK: So, how about those princesses?
SC: Ariel and Tiana first. Then Rapunzel. Karen was shy with Flynn there.
MK: Was he smoldering?
SC: :) He liked the picture we brought for him to sign. They got his nose right.
MK: Did Karen draw them a picture?
SC: I printed one at home.
MK: Also, Holly and I are doing a Star Wars marathon. So we’ll have to do a different marathon when you visit.
SC: Twilight?!
MK: Done.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MK: So, kids ready to come home now?
SC: Rich tricked me into taking Caleb to see princesses all day.
MK: I thought that was your idea.
MK: So you could get princess birthday pictures to blackmail him with later.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MK: Holly says to tell Caleb “BIGGIE BIGGIE BIGGIE!”
SC: I’ll pass on the message. Dude. It is SNOWING on I8.
SC: Why did you send us this way GPS? Why? Why does it hate us?
