I miss Disneyland.

I'm having a rough morning. I'm really trying to put something someone said behind me. So instead of posting the RANT that I've got in my draft section, I figured I'd just mention how much I miss Disneyland.





It's been a little over 2 years since we went last. We still talk about it all.the.time.

Day 5: It's really unimaginable....

It's no lie, I'm a HUGE fan of Disneyland.
After taking our kids this past March I have been wanting to go back.
It has only been 2 months.
Today.

So, when my sweet friend Amy texted me Sunday night about a race at the Happiest Place on Earth, I knew I must do this race.

You see, Disney World has had a marathon and half marathon and even 5k races IN THE PARK for a long time now.
While I love the idea, I was not set on spending all the money to get there.
But for some reason, when Amy got all excited about the new race in Disneyland, so did I.
So why is this "unimaginable"?
I have never ever ever EVER said I'd do a half marathon.
In fact a few of my awesome and amazing super athletic friends ran a half last weekend.
One of them even ran the full marathon.
I just smiled.
"I'll never want to do a half or full marathon," I said.

Famous last words.

So will I be jogging with Tink in January?
Not hardly.
I'm not ready in any way to think about doing this in 6 months.
However, Amy, Christa and I will probably plan for January of 2013.
Provided those newlyweds don't end up knocked up.
Both of them are getting married this year.
Not that I'd be upset at them, they can come and cheer me on in my insanity.
I'll just jog with their husbands instead.
So there.
*sticks out tongue*

In the meantime, I need to get my butt moving for a 5k, and work up to a half marathon next June.
Maybe I'll endure the insanity that is the Ogden half.
Yeah...maybe not.
I guess we'll just see.

But I will NEVER EVER do a full blown Marathon.
You must be nuts!

I'm sure I'll eat my words some day.

I survived Disneyland

We survived 3 nights/4days in the Magic Kingdom.
It was amazing.


We stayed up late and got up early.
We took naps during the day.
We ate some awesome {and okay} food.

We met and saw over 20 characters and got most of their autographs.


Including watching TV with Goofy

We rode lots of rides {some several times}


And we wore goofy stuff on our heads.

My daughter and I are now collecting Vinylmations.
They're sooo cute!
You trade them like the pins, and only 3 of these made it home.


We had stress, and laughs, a few tears {me}, and finally a lot of tired eyes on the way home.

But I'd do it all over again to see my kids smile because they loved it so much.

They actually smiled for the camera!
More than ONCE!
I'm so proud.

Now, let the work really begin! I've got photo taking to do and a shop to build.
I wish I wouldn't have put it off so much.

I think I may continue to Facebook/Twitter fast through Easter.
But that's not concrete yet!
I just know I'm still working on multi-tasking!
Have a fabulous weekend!

XOXO
