We just returned from a surprise trip to Disneyland for Emily and Liam. What made the surprise even better is that we went with Emily's best friend and her family. I almost feel bad for deceiving them, but I think they both enjoyed the surprise.
Emily's highlights: Ariel's Grotto and Princesses, Pirates of the Caribbean, Peter Pan
Liam's highlights: Fighting Darth Vader, Splash Mountain, Peter Pan
Getting a pedicure for the first time and for the trip she doesn't know about.
