The first ride we went on was Mickey's Runaway Railway. It's a new ride that Katie had loved when she went on it with Jennifer.
When we had gone out shopping, Jennifer and Katie both got a Lego set. When we got back to the hotel, they worked on their Legos for entertainment.
After shopping a bit, we went and explored the grounds of the Disneyland Hotel. It's so pretty there.
After my sister, Jennifer, and Katie went to check out the 100 Year celebration at Disneyland a bit ago, we all decided to go see it for a few days. Disneyland is always fun!
It made Katie's day when she got a note in the mail from her cousin, Eva.
While Mr. Limpet rested on the blanket, General Washington chose to rest right next to it.
Katie asked if I could wash her favorite blanket. It finished drying on my bed, but it didn't take long for Mr. Limpet to find it.
At night time, Katie sometimes still loves to get a hug from Winnie the Pooh.
Katie's very first love was Winnie the Pooh. How she loved him! When we went out shopping the other day, she found a Winnie the Pooh shirt, and she was so happy to get it.
General Washington loves when Katie pets him, but sometimes he's too lazy to walk over next to Katie.
One of Katie's teachers was giving away some of her things at the end of the year, and Katie got a sign for her desk.
Whenever General Washington can find an odd place to sit, he does so and does it regally.
Katie's favorite part of summer has to be the slow mornings.
In all of our years of planting vegetables, we have never had surprise mushrooms. Maybe it's related to the onions we planted for the first time this year because that's where all the mushrooms are growing.
Katie had a countdown going until the last day of school. She was so excited to get to summer. Then as soon as I got home and saw her at the end of the day, she was feeling sad that it was already over. This has been true of her personality every year of school!
Our garden continues to change week by week.
During the school year, the cats are very happy to have company on the weekends.
Katie got to go to her school band concert last week to support her friends who were playing.
We had the first strawberries of the season.
After some sprouts, the first thing that came up in our garden box was mushrooms. Not what we expected.
When the weather is nice, it's time to take a walk.
The cats are enjoying spring. Coming with the season is some Spring Fever with wrestling sessions each day, but by evening, they are calm and cuddly.
In just one week, we were amazed at how quick our garden grew.
Katie's Gotcha Day gifts from me came trickling in a bit late, but she was okay with it. I'm lucky that she has such a patient personality!
On Katie's "Gotcha Day," she was so excited to find a surprise at the door.
We are also growing strawberries this year. Our strawberry plant come back year after year, which is so nice.
