Disneyland for Cheryl's Birthday

For the first time in my life I purchased an annual pass to Disneyland and somehow managed to talk my mom and sister into doing it also. We are making the most of it this year! Cheryl decided that was where she wanted to go for her birthday. It was beautifully decorated with all the Christmas decorations and was just such a fun day. I'm loving the Christmas season this year!

Bennett LOVES to ring that bell on the Fire Truck!
Bennett "hanging out" with Grammy riding on the Autopia. She is a wild driver I tell ya!
Bennett in the Toady car. I never realized how many people like to take a picture in this car. Never knew it was such a picture spot before!

Happy Birthday Nick!

December brings many birthdays in our family. My sister In Law Amanda's birthday was on the 3rd - and we celebrated, but I forgot my camera! On the 5th, it was my Father in Law Nick's birthday. I had the distinct honor of making his birthday cake. He owns a 1969 MGC GT, so I made an MG emblem on the cake. We had a lot of fun celebrating with the relatives that day! Happy Birthday Nick!

The kids were "helping" grandpa blow out the candles. :o)

My mom thought it would be funny to get Nick a Viking hat since anyone who knows him knows that he is a huge Vikings fan (football that is. :o) The hat was hilarious! and somehow she found a card that sang opera as well to go with it!
Ardis sporting the newest in Viking attire. :o)
The kids were attempting to "fix" grandpa...think they may have banged him up a bit more than they fixed him though. :o)
