Birthday Surprise!

My twins turned nine on Oct. 10th! I can't believe it! We had wanted to take the boys to Disneyland for their birthday, but Caleb really struggles with transitioning from one thing to the next. You don't realize how many times you go from one thing to another until you are with Caleb. So we made the tough decision to leave Caleb at home in his comfort zone, with Tyler. I picked Holden up from school early and surprised him with a trip to Disneyland. So me, my mom, Finley and Holden headed to CA for a few days in the sun. It was a lot of fun and a birthday I hope Holden won't soon forget!

With Pluto










Waiting in one of the many long lines





Holden giving Fin a ride while waiting in line





On the Peter Pan ride







Goofy and Pluto


Woody and The Green Army Man. We went "trick or treating" in California Adventure on Friday night, so that is why Holden is wearing his zombie doctor costume




Captain Hook.



Captain Jack. He was so awesome and spent so much time with Holden, it was his favorite character


Me and the boys on Monster Inc. ride




With Handy Manny. He doesn't watch the show but when you see a character with a short line you jump at it!



Mrs. Incredible




Goofy


Mickey



My little trooper, he was awesome most of the time

I agree with Beth that October is a way fun time to visit D-Land! How fun that your Mom was able to go with you. What great memories!
