Last Friday after school we left town to head to Portland where Grandpa Ryan was flying in to watch the children for a week while we flew to Hawaii, because it was "cheaper". Haha! Then Grandpa called to say he missed his flight as he had to see the doctor and wasn't coming afterall. So we went to Nana's for dinner and to decide if they could watch the children because we were going to Hawaii. We were all stumped, what would Nana say? Would she do it? They kept asking so many questions, it was a hard secret to keep. Once we arrived at Nana's house to visit while we were in town, we had the children open a gift which was a Mickey Mouse t-shirt, sunglasses and a Mickey mug with candy in it. They didn't quite get it, so we told then we weren't going to Hawaii, Grandpa wasn't flying in, he wasn't sick and we were going to Legoland, the beach, Disneyland and California Adventure! Yay!!
Bryant got his driver's license!
There were Lego everywhere! It was really cool! The weather was wonderful and they even had a lego play area with thousands of lego to build with. Taylor and Bryant made this two level thing while Dad and Syd hit the big roller coaster. I tell you this place in the park was a life saver for sure!
Are you ready for the REAL story of Legoland? At lunch time we let Bryant go inside this huge play area and got a table near the entrance. Sydney and I left to go get food and the other two were supposed to be watching for Bry...shall I leave it at that? Okay, so we get back and ask where Bry was, no one knew. So the frantic searching started with leaving the girls at the table watching the entrance to the fort and Todd and I tackling the park going opposite ways. I was half way around the park near the entrance about to get help from the park and Todd called to say that Bryant just showed up, crying and trying to be tough about it. He went looking for us and we all had a scare. Then we all had a big talk about what to do when lost in a park... needless to say, Bry was right by our side the rest of the day and week at Disney too. He didn't take his eyes off of us! Thanks to answered prayers and a loving Heavenly Father who looks out for us! He said he prayed three times to find us and I know I was praying constantly too!
