Disneyland Trip

My daughters arrived back last night from their first visit to Disneyland. They actually spent a whole week in Florida at Daytona Beach and one of those days was Disneyland. I was able to see them today for a few hours. They showed me a few small entries they made in their journals about their trip. They also showed me some new outfits they bought. We cleaned off their sea shells. We played catch and they each took a turn hitting a softball in the yard. They had apparently had time this morning to make cinnamon rolls so I got to have one of them.

Apparently they spent most of their vacation swimming. They did do some sight seeing. It sounds like they had a lot of fun. I hope they get their pictures developed this week so I can see them this coming weekend.

I was really kind of hesitant about the whole trip even though I was very excited for them. The trip wasn't made with a parent, but two aunts. That never happened in my family growing up. It's one thing to visit family for a few days or grandparents for a week, but to let aunts take your kids to another state via airplane is a bit unsettling. It's not that they aren't responsible. It just seems weird to me since it never would have happened in my family. My family is very close, but a trip like that is something parents take their kids on. That's my opinion, but it may have changed a bit since this trip went so well.

The girls missed me, which felt good. I will be glad to have them visit the next two weekends in a row.
