Grandma visits. Yay!!

We were so excited to get Grandma for the weekend. She came to watch Ana & Lily in all their many performances.

Ana, who just started playing the french horn in the beginning band a few months ago, was invited to play with the intermediate/advanced band at Disneyland because she SO rocks that horn. She got to miss school, so I pulled Lily out and we followed the buses down to Anaheim for the day. 

It was a SCORCHER there and very crowded, therefore we didn't ride one ride. Just wandered around, had an excellent lunch, and looked through the gift shops. That's the beauty of having an annual pass. No pressure to get your money's worth.

While I was watching her play, I had a moment where my heart was so full and I was just so proud of her. She's so talented, lovely and...most important...GOOD. She's such a kind and mature and wonderful girl.

Here's a video clip of they're little Journey foray. Journey. Hmmmm. The smell of wine and cheap perfu-ume....

Grandma & Lily on Donald's boat.

Pointless picture, but it's here to remind me of the tastiest french fries on this ball that is the earth. Garlic Parmesan. So, so good. I lick the plate when the fries are gone. No joke.

Look closely under the vehicle. That's my mom's iPhone 4. When we got in the park she realized she didn't have it and had a hunch it had fallen under the car. We sent a quick wish up to heaven then it would be safe until we returned to the parking structure a few hours later. Wish granted. Amazing.

They totally pooped out on our return drive. Good thing they got a nap. Needed lots of energy for opening night of their play in a few hours.
