Yep - Pretty Much a Happy Place!

My baby turned 17 last Saturday! To celebrate, we capitalized on an already planned trip out west and went to Disneyland! I am sooo grateful that my teenager still loves that stuff! Les got her hair cut off again, and it looks pretty cute - even with the Indiana Jones hat she bought with her birthday money. That is her new best friend. She enjoyed watching the Jedi Training since she is a complete Star Wars geek, but was a little sad that it was only for little kids. Dang little kids! OH well....

She and Dad enjoyed Tower of Terror and that Paradise Pier thing that shoots straight up in the air. Neither are for me. Nooo sir, nope.

We topped off the visit with a birthday dinner at Rainforest Cafe. Dad enjoyed sitting by the gorilla. Scary either way you look at it.

We were amazed at how many friends we made when we all wore our BYU shirts. And, only a couple of enemies. It must have been Mormon Week at our hotel and at the parks. Fascinating - only a few scouls were shot our way - must be people who opposed Proposition 8. In fact, I am sure of it.

Enjoy the collage - click on it to enlarge the photos if you want to.
