Every year we go to Washington to celebrate the 4th with the Dobbe's and Moldenhauer's. We always have the best time. We love the parade and being up at the cabin, it is beautiful. The best part is being with great friends.

The view of all the parks from our hotel room.

The second day in California we took the boys to Disneyland. To be honest Ethan was a little grouchy at first and I wasn't too happy we paid that much money and he was actually grouchy, I told him that is was the happiest place on Earth and he would be happy! :) After lunch he was a new kid. We had a blast, even saw Kobe Bryant after the Lakers big win. We all had a blast it was a wonderful day. We stayed at a hotel near by and took a break around 4 for swimming and dinner then we went back for the fireworks and walked right on to a few rides, it was fabulous!!
