I could have converted this to just audio because it’s space mountain and you can’t see anything until the end. But his face at the end is priceless.

**It should be noted that he now calls this his favorite ride at the park and can’t wait to go back on.**

Here he is after the ride coming down from his High. Watch his arms swing while he walks – he looks like a champion.

Saturday morning started with a little bit of a hiccup. We had no plans for the weekend besides selling our beloved Bella (Subaru Legacy Wagon) on Sunday. But while I was cleaning her out and getting ready I suddenly panicked that the deal would not go through because of my Massachusetts title.

I plunged into a mini-depression after calling the buyer and telling her that she had to postpone her flight down until I sorted things out.

Mariel cured me by deciding at 2pm that it was a good day to go to Disneyland! Within about 40 minutes we had booked a room and park tickets, packed everyone up and grabbed some snackage.

We didn’t take a lot of photos because we were only gone for 24 hours total. But there is some excellent video of Dexter on Space Mountain that I will post soon because it is the funniest thing in the world to hear him scream for 4 minutes straight and then to see his completely adrenaline fueled smiled afterward.

Chase loves the novelty of his old car seat. Impromptu block party. The van’s first visit to the beach when we find nothing to cook for dinner. We need to name the van.

From 2008-10-25

This is the picture from the fate of atlantis ride that Dexter was very excited to go on BEFORE he had experienced the terrifying drop. He has yet to on it again even though I beg him every time.

That day was a good one. We did some soccer, went to sea world, ate next to the Orcas (shamu) and rode a roller coaster that nearly scared the crap out of Dexter.

This is the album from that day.
