Disney's CHRISTMAS CAROL Train Tour

Grandma and Grandpa took Zachary to Los Angeles to see Walt Disney's Christmas Train.

Zachary inside of the train. They had a front room with a fireplace.

They had a pretend Christmas dinner.

After the tour we watch a man on stilts.


We made a Christmas Card for children in the hospital. It was like a service project.

Look at the long line to get into the train. We got there early and didn't have to wait in line.

I liked riding on the train. It took us 1 1/2 hours to get home.

We had a table and we played games.

Grandpa and I both went to sleep.

Trip to Napa California

This weekend we traveled up to Napa, CA for our great great nephew, William's baptism. It was a such a fun weekend. We got to be here for not only his baptism, but also for his baseball game and birthday party. He had Desert Dave come to his party with lots of creapy crawly reptiles. He brought two snakes, 3 lizards, a tarantula, and a frog. He was very interesting and the kids loved it. They were glued to their seats for an hour! They all got to hold a corn snake. Little Maddie even loved it.
The baptism was so great. Merrill and Lisa made a video of lots of pictures of William growing up. The talks were great too. After, we all went back to Lisa & Merrill's for a Mexican feast. I've never tasted such great Mexican food. We had tacos and enchiladas to order.
Sunday, we went to church and then up to Merrill's golf course. It is so gorgeous. He took us on a tour of the whole property. All I can say is that it was AMAZING! We can't wait to come back up so we can play there.

We came out of church to find a huge bee hive with bees swarming all around it. You can see it in this tree.
