Well Tuesday was spent recuperating and Lauren being 7 recuperated very quickly.  7 year olds have an amazing capacity for bouncing back and then it's all about how to keep them entertained.

There is a park at the end of our road that has a playing field, swings, slide and sand so by Tuesday afternoon Lauren was up and raring to go so off to the park we went closely followed to a trip to the mall in Irvine where they have a cool Merry Go Round which Lauren had to go on of course!

By Wednesday they were all up to a trip to the beach but Thursday was my day to finally get to Disney!  They had bought 2 day tickets as they were going to spend 2 days and nights at the park and in the Disney hotel so I bought a park hopper ticket so we could all get into both Disneyland and California Adventure Park and off we went.

Asleep on Nana's shoulder, definitely a long day but so worth it.  Now I just have to get all my other grand kids to California so I can do it all again with them!
