I can't believe May is almost over! What a great month! Micah graduated from College!!!!! It was so awesome to see him get to walk across that stage and accept his degree. I am so proud of him. It took a long time but it was definatly worth it.
We drove to Disneyland the next day and spend three days there. My brother Sean surpised us on the second day and it was really great to see him spend time with the girls. The last day we were there, there was a bomb scare and they evacuated us all out of tomorrowland. It was a bit unnerving but it appeared as if they had it all under control. The kids had so much fun and every night they still wanted to go swimming. I couldn't believe it. Livy was able to meet the princesses and they were so cute. We were able to take Elsa on all the big rides and she really enjoyed Space Mountain and the Matterhorn. The Hollywood Hotel Terror ride, not so much.
After Disneyland we drove to San Diego and went to the Zoo. I couldn't belive how big it was and how much up hill walking there was. Elsa had darted ahead of me as we were walked and when I yelled out her name a woman turned around and said that was her name too. She and I were both surprised to see that someone else shared that name. Elsa thought that was really neat.
We then went to the beach and relaxed. The sky was a bit overcast but it was still warm. Elsa had fun building a sand castle while the other girls managed to get sand everywhere! My brother Ian and his wife and their little girl joined us for the trip and Ian had a friend who lived in San Diego so he came by at the beach and brought his wet suits and surf boards and Micah gave a go at it. HE did really good considering it was his first time.
It was a great trip, not too long but not too short. We were glad to be home. It really made me appreaciate where I live. I love to visit, but Utah is my home and I am happy about that.

  3. Congrats to Micah, I can't believe it! Finally the big graduate!

    I loved seeing all of the pictures from your fun trip, I am just a little confused at the choice of the song Battlefield for the slideshow. Was Disney wild? Was it because of the bomb scare? Or do you just like the song? ;)
