After a month of mild weather, California heated up the day before we came back to Colorado. That didn't stop us from enjoying our favorite place. Chris and I found adorable matching Minnie Mouse shirts at Target. Let's be honest, a shirt like that would cost $26 in the park. At Target? $5.99, thank you very much. This day was extra special because Grandma came to join us. We got to the park an hour after it opened and rode all the rides we could in Fantasyland. By the time Grandma caught up with us two hours later, we had already conquered six rides. Claire was so happy Grandma came because she could play with "MaMa's" necklaces. She loves Grandma's necklaces! The park started to get super crowded around noon. This is when we decided to enjoy the air conditioning and relative calm of window shopping through Disneyland stores. By the time we left around 2 pm, we were hot and happy but ready to go home. On the ride home, Mom treated us to refreshing tall sodas. Claire decided no one should hold her cup but herself. At fourteen months old, I wasn't ready to let her take that plunge. This started the absolute worst fit of her young life. She screamed and arched and batted her arms. She had so much anger, she could have fueled the steam boat back at Disneyland. We made it through her fifteen minute fit and the second we unbuckled her car seat the tears stopped flowing. Um, scary! Kids sure know how to throw great fits. Claire's tears aside, this day was a blast and one we would definitely want to do again-- over and over.
