Disneyland

Tatym October 2007 and Josh October 2009

















So my husband had a great idea to start a tradition. When our kids turn 8, sometime during that year, they get whisked away to Disneyland with just Dad! We have surprised both of them so far, and it is such a great time for them. They get to do all the things that they wouldn't get to if we were all there, (or even if it was with me). They stay up late, and eat junk all weekend, and then get up at 6:30 so they can literally be the first ones in the gate in the morning. THen they run from ride to ride, and do every ride as many times as possible until they can't walk anymore. Then they head back to the hotel, take a nap and a hot tub break and then head back for more in the evening. It is a great tradition I think. I think one of the great pay-offs we have gotten was watching Tatym's excitement as Josh went on his trip. She sent Tim an email that was so cute. Here is what she wrote:
