Disneyland!!!

We flew out bright and early on Saturday morning and got to the Wayne County Airport. The flight was kinda crazy because Jerusha's ears were acting up on her and she was not to be calmed easily. She has become quite a daddy's girl! We found our hotel and a target to find food. Rachel went to the Young Women's Broadcast with a friend. The church building that we found that was the closest at 9 am was a polynesian ward. Rachel was a little nervous at first but after a kiss on the cheek from the young woman's counselor and the friendliness of the other girls, she felt better. Sacrament meeting was interesting. 2/3rds of the meeting was in a different language and it was very neat. Disneyland was on Monday and Tuesday. Rachel and I went to town the first day with many breaks with the girls. We had so much fun! Monday night and Tuesday morning James was with us and we watched the Pixar Parade and Rachel rode the Tower of Terror with James and Soaring over California with me. We went swimming at the hotel. I absolutely love to watch others get excited! It is so fun for me. I can see the excitement in Jerusha's eyes as she takes it all in! James is the proud coach of the National winning team of Utah Valley University Cheerleaders! They brought home the title! It was so amazing! I love that man and his ambition!



This was the stroller that these two girls spent most of their time in. Sometimes by choice others not! Jerusha loved to climb in and out and play in the back seat.



Jerusha loved looking for all the characters but wouldn't get too close and when we stood next to any of them she would just stare at them and put her fingers in her mouth.




She found a fence that was just her size to stand on and walk along. It was so much fun for her.



We stayed at the Anabella across the street from Disneyland. The room was considered a suite. It had a room off the side with a TV which we let Rachel stay in, the couch was a hide-a-bed where Jerusha stayed and Mallorie got the unused couch cushion under the night stand on my side of the bed which was opposite the air conditioner.

Wow it is a disney year for the the Thelin clan. We are going to Disney world this year with our five year olds. It looks like you had a great time. Tell James congrats on the cheer win too.

Did Mallorie get grab onto those electrical cords or is she still to little to cause damage?

A Hearty Big Congratulations on the National Cheer Title. That is so unbelieveable and totally awesome. I bet you were so excited when it was really happening. James, you probably did a back flip, I bet! Love the Disney pics of the kids and you all. What a fun bunch you are. We love new photos of our grand kids. These are so fun. Jerusha is a doll and Mallorie is so cute. We love you all. RADDIO DADDIO.
