Celebrating Dad

For the past year, hub has been working non-stop so we thought we would give him a mini vacay at his favorite place, Disneyland.   So I splurged and booked a stay at the Disneyland Hotel.   Penny and I sent down a day early and spent the day at the hotel poolside where we ordered drinks (hers a smoothy) and lunch and also, zipped down the monorail waterslides.   We arrived before noon, checked in and managed to score an upgrade of the pool view.   P and I had a fun day lounging in the sun, relaxing in our room and having dinner at Downtown Disney.  We even managed to Build-a-Bear (okay, well a My Little Pony unicorn) and looked at all the latest merchandise at the big Disney World of Wonder store.   Dad took a train down since we took the car but unfortunately for him the train was originally delayed and then took forever at Union Station in Downtown.  So he didn’t get into Anaheim until about 9:30 aka when the fireworks started going off.  Daddy met up with us and we spent another two hours in the park. When we got back to the hotel we were poop’d.  So we slept and slept until it was time for a special character breakfast at The Plaza Inn which I booked for us.  We had some great fun in the parks all weekend.  On Sunday, we even had lunch at the Blue Bayou which we haven’t eaten at in a long time.   We even got P’s portrait done by an artist.   It was another fun weekend at Disney.

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of
