Hannah and Elena wore yellow today and the boys wore clothes of course just not in this picture. They are so sweet and wonderful and bring so much joy and sunshine into our lives.

The first picture is actually from the day before. Connie and Sara took this picture and I think Hannah looks so sweet, although the beads did make me think "Mardi Gras," oh well.
Mother's day was really nice. The weather was perfect and church was wonderful. Connie wanted to take a picture with all the grandkids (I don't know why I didn't think of doing the same thing Caleb and Hannah). They were all really good.
After pictures, we drove over to Connie's and had a feast. The best part was the strawberry shortcake that Sara made. Caleb and Patrick sat together in a chair and enjoyed the dessert. Caleb ate a little slower than Patrick which in his mind meant that Caleb wasn't that interested in the cake. Patrick attempted to, several times, eat off of Caleb's plate and "help" him finish it. In this picture you can see Patrick eyeballing Caleb's plate waiting for just the right moment to try again.

After lunch we just happened to be at the right place and the right time because we saw Mickey and Minnie, Aladin and Jasmine and Buzz Lightyear. Both Caleb and Patrick met Buzz and got to talk to him. Afterward Patrick was so happy he gave Caleb a kiss but wouldn't let Caleb kiss him back, more than twice... Caleb tried. We then found another train and rode on that all over the park. Both Cory and I tried to get Caleb to get off the bench and walk around or look at other things but he stayed vigilant on the bench. At the end of the day we met Mickey afterall and Caleb and Hannah only took their eyes off of him long enough to take a picture. I love Disneyland.

First thing we did was eat breakfast and then back to the rooms to pack our things. The girls enjoyed the hotel life - lounging on the bed, being pampered and waited on hand and foot...oh wait that's every day. We rode the carousel, teacups (well, I didn't. I would have actually thrown up unlike Cory's pretend nausea), and then the storybook ride (BORING). Then Caleb and Cory rode the Casey Jr. train the rest of the morning. No seriously. They rode it until lunch time again and again.

Normally we drive up the day we go to Disneyland then spend the night and drive home the next day but this year we decided to drive up the day before, get a good rest then get to the park when it opens instead of noon (like last year) and it worked out so much better. We stayed at a hotel within walking distance of the park and a heated pool. The pool was so warm the boys were in there for 2 hours and said it was more like a bath than a pool. Both Jesus and Cory spent most of the two hours throwing the boys up in the air or catching them in the pool when they jumped to them from the edge.
Before the pool and pizza Caleb made sure the phones were working and ordered room service and extra pillows.

Connie invited all of us to the Solera park by our house for push up pops and 50/50 bars. We laid out a blanket and enjoyed the wonderful Spring weather. Elena and Hannah stayed on the blanket sharing toys while Caleb and Patrick sat quietly and reverently in a chair for an hour. Just kidding.

You'll never guess what these chicks are made out of...Chocolate! They were too cute to eat so no one ever did. They stayed on the glass table or on Connie's kitchen counter adding to the Easter ambiance. Caleb and Patrick decorated eggs tonight and had the best time. Those boys are so sweet together.

Cory found an injured bird at his parents house this afternoon and decided to help it out by putting it in one of Connie's old shoe boxes. The only thing he forgot was food. So the bird died anyway. It's the thought that counts so don't call PETA.

Caleb turned 3 today at 8:01 am. We had a little party for him over at the Randall house. My Dad was the BBQ man and managed to cook the best hamburgers and hotdogs ever made. My sister Hillari captured a few moments with her polaroid camera and Cola's kept us laughing.
