Triplets hit Disneyland




We stayed in the Dream Tower at the Disneyland Hotel.  By accident we found out that the night stand switch turned on the head board lights and played "A Dream is a Wish Your Hear Makes".  By the end of the week the girls had made up at least 50 of their own silly verses to the song.
One of their favorite things was to swim at the pool and go down the giant slide.  I joined them several times.  Then when we got chilly we spend some quality time in the hot tub.
Barb taught them the fireman rescue chair carry, so they carried each other all over the hotel grounds.
At the park we had lots of good opportunities to have pictures taken with some of the Disney Characters.  This one is in Toon Town we went to first.
I let the girls go on this ride alone.  They went twice. Spinning cups weren't really exciting for me.   
We had a special private dinner at Ariel's Grotto, exclusively for  princesses. She invited all the Disney Princesses and they all came to our table.
Aubrey liked Bell the best and gave her a special Aubrey hug.  Which Aubrey gave out to every flight attendant, pilot and anyone else who was nice to us.
Because Eve went on Space Mountain, Aubrey and Jade agreed to go on Grizzly Mountain.  Aubrey got soaked but was a good sport even though she let us know just how really wet she was several times.
The screaming of Jade and Aubrey was ear shattering.
But it was nothing compared to the sounds Eve produced.  My hearing may never be the same.
On Friday we went to Huntington Beach and let them run and scream all they wanted. Aubrey made her own alligator sand creature.
All in all we had a great time.  Every evening after dinner the girls wrote in their journals, did homework and each night Barb and I presented an inspirational thought about one of the Young Women's Values.  We taught them about Choice and Accountability, Divine Nature, Individual Worth and Good Works.  So now we have two years to get ready for Dexter, Dalyn, Ashlyn and Madison.    And by the way we did manage to have pastries and ice cream for breakfast the last day.  Love, Dad
