Merry Christmas!










We started our season by celebrating in Disneyland. I know that they say Disneyland is the Magical Kingdom, but in Christmas...it was extra magical, extra special, just extra! We were able to see an amazing light display on the "It's a Small World" building. It even snowed on cue, which didn't impress my kids too much...guess it's just a reminder of what they really want--snow, and more than a few flurries, so they can go skiing. Getting back to Disneyland wonder...the castle was fantastic! I had no idea that Christmas lights could be that pretty. Also, the garland, garland, garland that was EVERYWHERE! If you ever need wreath or garland ideas, go to Disneyland. Plus, the gardeners at Disneyland had planted poinsettia in the ground. I have never witnessed such a wonder...poinsettia growing directly from the dirt, in flowerbeds. Gardening in California does give you many more planting options?!

The trip was fantastic for almost everyone; Ryan had a case of food poisoning, so it wasn't quite the magic he was anticipating. But to top our whole trip, Gary Sinse read the Christmas Story while choirs from the area sang Christmas Hymns. It was the perfect last night in Disneyland for 2011. Merry Christmas!
