Getting away

Tomorrow we are flying to California on vacation. We're keeping it a surprise from the boys... we were going to tell them tonight, but then we thought they probably wouldn't sleep. Jacob knows that we're going on vacation, but he doesn't know where.

Here's how our conversation went:

M: Jacob, we have a secret to tell you in three days!
J: Not in three days. Tell me in zero days. What is it?!
M: You have to wait, but it's so so exciting. The most exciting thing you can think of!
J: Fun Dip?
M: No.
J: How 'bout the biggest most humongous swing? You found one bigger than our LIVING ROOM?
M: No.
J: Are we going to Maine?!
M: What's in Maine?
J: I don't know. Let's find out!

He cracks me up.

So the plan was to go to Long Beach for a few days. Adam stayed in this hotel by the beach that he really wanted to take us to. Then... we found out that Disneyland is giving anyone in the military a free three day ticket AND their family can get a three day ticket for the price of one. So you can't pass that up, right?! That's what we thought too.

We weren't planning to go to Disneyland with Casey being so little, but at least it won't feel like a waste of money if everything goes crazy. ;) Hopefully they will do well. My first posts ever were from the last time we went, when Gavin was 13 months and Jacob was 3. How funny that Casey is Gavin's age and Gavin is Jacob's age now. California, here we come... wish us luck!
