Spring Break

     We have once again fallen behind on our blog, so going back to the end of February we finally were able to take our first big family vacation, which with all the fun we had I'll break into a couple posts. This year we decided to take the kids to Disneyland. We made it and early spring break trip for them since Adahleigh didn't actually have spring break until mid March. We went earlier to avoid some of the crowds and the pricing is better before the first of March.
     We first told the kids about the trip at Christmas, they were excited but didn't really know what to expect. Over the next month we planned out with them which rides they wanted to go on, so that helped them get more excited for the trip. We figured with four of them to chase around we needed a little extra help, so we invited Grandma Phillips and Aunt Karli along to help out.
     We left out Friday (Feb 21) after Adahleigh was done with school, since the school was already giving us a hard time for her missing too much. We broke the 13 hour trip down into two days, and met Grandma and Karli in Sacramento.
     We stopped and got everyone dinner at burger King in Klamath Falls, so their bellies would get be full and they could get to sleep for the next few hours till we made it Sacramento.



    The Next morning we had breakfast and took the kids to a local park so they could burn off some energy before getting back in the car for most of the day. The weather in Sacramento was great at 70 by 10 am, compared to our regular 40 high for the day. Keisha has become quite the acrobat and likes to show here skills off.
     Charles also wanted to show his hanging skills, but would do it from the monkey bars.
     She also has a grip of steel, which she can dangle for long periods of time. She made it across the rings several times, but once the camera came out she couldn't get all the way across.
