We had always planned on taking Bridger to Disneyland when
he was five. However, when Paige
and Bryce told us they were going, my
parents decided to join in the fun and offered to take us with them. Tim, of course, had to work and I absolutely
did NOT want to take Mr. Ty - so on a whim, Tim asked his mom to fly from Texas
to watch Ty a few days so that Bridger and I could go. Guess what, she said YES. I was shocked, to say the least. What kind of person drops everything to pay
for a horrible flight to babysit a very energetic baby?! Only someone celestial - my mother-in-law.
So Bridger and I got to go to Disneyland two years
early. We had the best time. Bridger absolutely adores his cousins, and
was in heaven. My parents took such good
care of us. My mom let me ride shot-gun
the entire way there and back (pregnancy nausea is no joke). My dad took Bridger swimming, waited in the longest, shoot-me-now, lines, and spoiled everyone. Bridger was completely worn out at the end of each day, which only Disneyland could accomplish.
It was a fun few days, and Bridger has not stopped talking about it since we got home (a month ago). Next time, Tim will definitely come with us. Next time, we will try to go on a low-crowd day (NOT during Spring break for half the country). Next time, we will have tons of money and be able to stay at the Grand California, right in the park. Next time, we will still be taking parents and cousins, because they were the highlight of our trip.
