March 2008 Parks, Brothers, Easter
















I can happily say we did our 1st official trip to the happiest place on earth....yep Disneyland....I have wanted to take Cam there for so long! My parents watched Kieren so we could just take Cam and have a fun day. He was in his glory to be alone with us. I think it oretty much blew his mind. He was more scared of the kids rides which really now as an adult going on them I never realized how dark and scary they could be to kids.....witches, hell, etc....I think Snow White was his scariest ride.....and he went on the Matterhorn and Pirates of Carribean, haunted house...what does that tell you! He ran those lil legs around that park from the time it opened until 11 that night. I couldn't believe it....he woke up around 5:30am too. We watched parades and the fireworks show at night which is really cool. He was on his dad's shoulders and he said, "mom, I am ready to go home now!" So I knew he was tired! But he regained some energy on way out to pick out some souvenieers.....dad got his hat with his name on it just in time to see mickey and minne and score a photo opp! What a fun day!

On a sad note.....Brad brought Atlas (his dog who grew up with Zion) to our house. He hasn't been doing very well and Brad was takin him in Fri. to be put down. It is heart wrenching. I snapped some photos of him that day. Zion would always love Atlas and Atlas was like a dad to him....I am not sure if dogs know what is going on but I am glad he got the chance to see him even if he didn't know it would be a goodbye. So hard. I hope Brad realizes he IS doing the right thing. Hard to live with I know and I feel so bad for him. Zion has been doing well with Chemo treatments but hard to think of in the future going though it as well.

We had many Easter celebrations/hunts....met the girls at Aviara Park for a hunt. Had a hunt at home...still scarred from brutal hunt at public park a year ago. Then we went to Armstrong's for some more fun! I think the bunny was busy this year!

Last but not least I had 2 for 1 tickets from our day at Disney and me being a kid wanted to check out Ca Adventures so I took Cam and the 2 of us went. It was a great day-lots more shows .....there was an interactive show and Cameron talked to the turtle....lots of 3d shows, parades....rides....we went to a really good show "Aladdin" before we went home and I am so glad we waited for it...amazing show and Cameron loved it!
