Spring break 2011

We did it again! Another great spring break spent together. The plan was 4 days at Disneyland then one day in Paris. We wanted this trip to be nothing but fun, without an itinerary to follow. Knowing that this would be our last trip into Paris with little ones, we wanted a good family picture to capture the trip. I think we were pretty successful with the pictures!

Maddi's sweatshirt summed up our day. We LOVE Paris!
These next few pictures are some of my favorites. Since it's time consuming keeping up a blog and Facebook for the family to see us, I'll spare you the boredom of viewing the pictures twice and just post the majority on Facebook. We sent the kids to go on a ride while we sat on the curb to secure our spots for the 5pm parade. Mike quickly ran to the kettle corn cart and grabbed us each a box with a cold coke. We giggled like little kids while enjoying our treats sitting front row on the curb looking like Disney Die-hard Nerds. When the kids came back and noticed our empty popcorn boxes, they were NOT happy with us. hee hee!

When the Disney Studios park opened it's doors at 0930, we sprinted for Crush's Coaster. This is probably the most popular ride in the park. Unfortunately, it does not have a fast pass, and the line is always 60+ minutes long. We were about 6th in line, what a treat!

Happy 11th birthday Lauryn!!

Our April Fool's baby is 11 today! On their birthdays, they get to choose what the dinner will be. Lauryn wanted a "Korean/Asian" night. We had 2 types of kimchee, spring rolls, kimbap, bulgogi beef (didn't have the right meat but ours did the trick) and noodles.
Showing off some of her presents.



We sure think Lauryn is the sweetest, spunkiest NEW 11 year old in our family! (have to be careful because remember...she and Brilee are 11 for 2 days together) hee hee!
