April 2025

We surprised the kids with a trip to Disney.  Danielle came with us.  We were able to visit with Maryann, Jack, Diane and Rich.  And our friends Ricardo and Rochelle.  We enjoyed two days in Disney and one at CA Adventure.  Allen got sick after one day at the park :(  So Danielle and I braved it alone with the kids.  

                                                  

                                                            John Wayne Airport

                                                    

                                                    

                                                  Our hotel room, walking distance from Disney

Dinner at Ricardo and Rochelle's. Their daughter Sara.
