Well, we made it home!!! I have had mixed feelings about our vacation because I got home and was sooooo exhausted from chasing crying kids and dealing with the sickness on vacation that I was thinking it just wasn't a ton of fun!!! After going through all the pics and seeing the happy smiles on the kids faces I have changed my tune!!
We flew in on Saturday and went straight to the Yankees game. It was an awesome game until the 8th when the Angels scored 8!! I did put a slide show of the ball game down below. Beware - for those of you who may not be fanatics, it will be boring. Mick was the photographer and my memory card was full (250) after the first half hour at which time I had to hurry and clean it off!!! He's hilarious. He was in heaven watching his team play for real!!! Notice how they all have their cute Yankee shirts on... well... you will notice that in some of the pics Maddog goes Red. Yes, my mom decided rather than get him a birthday present she would get him something at the game. He chose and Angels shirt and Hat. We confused a lot of folks!!!
On Sunday, Mick and dad returned to watch the Yankees loose again. Mom and I took the rest of the kids to Knottsberry Farm. We had a good time. It is more of a place for older kids because they have several awesome roller coasters. We actually took a break around 4 and went and got dad, Eric and Mick and brought them back. Mick and Macee were the best of friends and jumped on and off rides!
Monday we all, excluding Eric, went to Disneyland. We had a good time. We started out the morning having breakfast with the characters. I thought this would be a good way to break Mays in.... Wrong... he was not a fan of the characters. Didn't mind them until they got close. Mays and Gwire started getting really restless and tired around lunch time but we kept going. Around 3 Gwire said he was sick. I felt his forehead and he was burning up! So I took them to First Aid at the park and they gave them some Tylenol. I took the kids back to the hotel and my Mom, Dad, Macee and Mick stayed until later.
The next 3 days were Disney, Disney, Disney. Macee felt horrible (high fever) the last day (Thursday) so we came home and called it good early that day. It was fun but I would definately have left Mays home had I known that he would hate the characters, hate the rides, and hate the people. The only rides that he liked were Buzz and the carousel. He was even scared of Nemo!!!
Thanks mom and dad for coming along. You were a bunch of help and the kids enjoyed spending time with you. Thanks to those who helped with Murphy. We missed him a ton!!! We are home and school starts tomorrow. I can't believe summer is over already. School.... here we come!!!
