A party at Disneyland!

Last October Brooke and I went on a girls trip to Disneyland and fell in love! So in love that we bought year passes. We really have gotten our moneys worth! We started taking the kids for their birthdays. Since Cody's birthday is in July we waited until October for nicer weather and combined his and Tatum's trips. We also thought it would be fun to have Rhett & Chase go along!! We flew into Orange County and got some dinner & then headed for the hotel. Thanks Steven for getting us such a great deal on the hotel.

The next morning after breakfast we headed for the happiest place on earth! We planned out our day and we started out with lots of fun in Tomorrowland. The boys are HUGE star wars fans so we spent a lot of time there. Tatum fit in great with all the boys & wasn't scared of anything. I enjoyed every minute of the day & loved all the hugs and kisses from those sweet kids!

Game Night!

Sunday night I told the kids I had a new game to play. It was a game my cousins from California (who I always thought were so cool) played when they came to Arizona in the summer. You take a saucer cup of flour and press it very tight in the cup, put a plate on top and turn it over. Tap the cup and slowly lift the cup and you have this flour molded like the cup. Next you put a nickel or dime on top of the flour cup. Take a butter knife and everyone takes turns slicing the the flour but you don't want the coin to fall, but when it does the person that it falls on has to pick up the coin with their mouth. You can't use your hands, so has you can see your face is covered in flour. The grandkids loved it! Of course I never wanted to make it fall so I wouldn't get flour all over me----well they thought that was the best part! They loved digging for the coin with their face buried in the flour. The 3 little ones didn't really play, but Landon and Carter wanted to get their faces dirty too! Of course Miss Kennedi just smiled and didn't want to get that pretty little face messy. Cheryl & Johnny do you remember playing this?
