Out There Having Fun in the Warm California Sun!!
A couple of weeks ago Cortlyn and I had the pleasure of going out to Southern California to visit Chester who was on a business trip. I was able to priceline tickets for super cheap and you can't beat hotel and rental car on the business tab!! Chester gets put up in a super nice Hilton hotel and its all covered!! The hotel had an indoor swimming pool that Cortlyn loved to swim in. And Disneyland was just a few miles away. I ended up getting one day tickets on Ebay and we went on Thursday the week we were there. I absolutely loved it since I have been to DisneyWorld but wanted to see the original place. Cortlyn had fun although it will be funner for him when he is older and can remember but we have pictures to show him. The funniest thing was he totally fell asleep in the Haunted Mansion he wasn't even scared!! He also liked the Pirates of the Caribbean ride and the new animated Johnny Depp characters are HOT!!! He also loved the parade and it was so cute cause he watched the whole thing mezmorized and after it had all gone by he started waving like crazy so that is where he learned how to wave bye bye!! It was also nice to get to see Chesters cousin Jeff and his wife Rose and their new son Oliver. They lived just a few miles away from where Chester was working and staying so that was nice to get to spend time with them. Chester of course doesn't like being away from us when on business but if he gets sent back again I will totally bid on Priceline for a super sweet deal!!!

Found your blog by clicking "next blog", saying hello. Wow, those photos show how much fun you had! I wish I went to Disney!
I am currently a stay at home mommy to my son Cortlyn and daughter Catherine. I love every minute of it. The thought of going back to work has no appeal for me. I love watching my children go through their milestones and treasure the time that they are little. I love to play the piano and wish that I had a grand piano to play on. I also love to sing and was a vocal minor in college. I have been married to my husband Chester six years this coming October. We are blessed to have our son and our daughter Catherine. And of course who could forget our crazy five year old chocolate lab Brownie. God is Good!

Thrifty mommy! Love how you made special memories on a whim and on a tight budget. Ebay for tickets, I never would have thought of that....
