For Christmas we treated the kids to a cruise. We were especially excited to have Chris' and Amy's family's with us! We drove to Las Vegas on Saturday, January 16 and spent the night with Nana and Grandma Martha. It's always fun to visit them. Sunday after church, we went to San Clemente and had a great time there! We stayed in the San Clemente Inn which was very close to a great beach. Then on Monday, in rainy weather, we headed to Long beach to get on the Carnival Paradise. The ship was scheduled to stop on Catalina Island and in Ensenada. California was having the worst storms in years. Do to the high waves and stormy weather, the captain decided to head to Cabo. We had a great day in Cabo on Wednesday! Even the water was warm! Our ride back was quite rocky, which made for a miserable Thursday. The captain said that in the 12 years he's been cruising, he has only seen the water this bad about three times. The rest of the cruise was great though.
We had a ton of fun in Cabo! We were in Cabo on Tyler's birthday! Sydney, Emma, Lauryn and Brittany made him a sand Cake and everyone sang to him.
Mike, Corey, and Chris dove into the waves over and over and so of course we had to get a video of this. The first time I saw Mike run and dive, he was doing it alone and it startled me so badly. I thought he was running to save a child!
We signed up for Disneyland's give a day, get a day. We made blankets for a local charity and then got FREE Disneyland tickets. We enjoyed making the blankets and enjoyed Disneyland! Our ship came back on Friday evening, we spent Saturday at Disneyland, and then drove home on Sunday.

What is the give a day/get a day promotion? Sounds like a great idea! Our kids have still never been to Disneyland--neither have I--but the ticket prices keep me away everytime I consider it.
You go to Disneyland.com, search for give a day get a day, and then you'll see how to sign up. (They are only giving away 1 million tickets and there's been a lot of response and so they might run out soon.) You have to be at least 6 to participate. After completing the service you sign up for, you will get a free day at Disneyland. If you're considering it, call me and I'll give you more details. To make it worth it, you have to go off season, Sept - Feb (but not on Holidays) or it's too crowded to enjoy yourself! I agree with you, the price is rediculous, but it's fun!
Looks like you had so much fun. The story of you thinking Mike was running to save a child made me laugh out loud! So funny!
Wow! You got some great pictures! What a trip!
