Visit with Marie

I am writing this post as Marie, George, and I are watching the movie Hairspray. Marie (George's little sister) flew in yesterday morning from Phoenix. It was Marie's first time flying by herself and she did great....in fact, I think she could get used to it. She was so happy when she walked off the plane.

We went to lunch and headed back to our place. We relaxed for a couple of hours and waited for George to get off of work. George's parents got us a hotel in Anaheim so we headed down to the Disneyland area for the night. Marie was very interested in going into the hotel pool...and convinced George to go in too :) After the pool, we headed to dinner at Outback and headed to bed pretty early knowing that we had a long day ahead of us.

So, this morning, Marie woke up very excited to head to the park. We managed to get every one of the "big rides" in. Marie and George both said that Splash Mountain was their favorite, but I am die-hard Tower of Terror fan (that ride never gets old)! Of course, we also got managed to indulge in our favorite Disneyland treats...Pineapple Dole Whip (I LOVE PINEAPPLE DOLEWHIP...haha, Mom), George's beloved cream cheese filled pretzel, and ice cream on Main Street.

I captured some great pictures and will post those soon!

I head back to work tomorrow, but George has the day off and will take Marie to the airport. This week is a short week for us...we are heading to Phoenix for a 4-day weekend on Thursday night (and return on Monday evening).

I hope everyone else had a great weekend!!
