Fletcher's Birthday: Cali & Disneyland

For Fletcher's birthday & spring break
we went to California to visit the Sythoffs.
Nathan & Fin We (Wes' brother and his son)
were there too.


Playing with the trains on the floor.
Their favorite thing to fight over.


Fletcher's party: we invited Wes' cousins
and their kids over.
Here they all are, looking like Sythoffs.
And Leigh is the only girl!!


Happy Birthday!
Can you believe it's been 5 years??!!


Cupcakes (from Sam's Club) and vanilla ice cream.




"A-keet" is how Leigh says ice-cream.


Disneyland!
We took Jamie (Wes' sister) and Fin We.
I will only complain once:
We went during spring break- bad idea.
We rode 10 rides in 12 hours.  Bleh.


Trying to decide which line to stand in first.
Oops, I just complained again...


Getting ready for Autopia!
This ride was first introduced in 1955.


On the Autopia ride with daddy. 


Standing in line for the Matterhorn Bobsleds.
He closed his eyes very tightly during most of the rides.
When we got off, he would say, "Let's go again!"
"Nope!" we would say.
Not waiting in that line again.


Astro Orbiter ride.  The smiles are priceless.


Aboard the Mark Twain Steamboat.
The only ride we didn't have to wait
in line for!  Woo-hoo!



Sitting aboard the Disneyland Railroad.


When we first arrived at the park,
we couldn't get close enough to take a picture.
So we took one on the way out.
At 9 PM.  So exhausting.


Proof of exhaustion.
Fin & Fletch asleep against Jamie in the back seat.


We flew Jet Blue.
Ah, to fly without kids again.
T'would be a dream.
We did enjoy the screens on the back of each chair,
and unlimited snacks!
