vacation + birthday #7

a few things kind of fell into place that made it the perfect time to make a quick run down to disneyland. we had never been there during christmas- and jane was turning 7 that week- it just all made sense.

jane had been looking for a surprise from us- and she found it here:


the big surprise! from rob walter on Vimeo.

we immediately made the long trip down to anaheim. there was quite a bit of holiday traffic, but we had lots to listen to, watch and talk about.

while we were there, we rode lots of new rides; as well as all of our favorites-

we saw the parade and the fireworks- we were planning on seeing the "world of color" water show, but it was broken.

we met up with my pal chris,

and we took a bunch of pictures.

and last friday, jane celebrated her big #7 birthday.

deanna made a cool surprise for her by stringing yarn all over the house. jane had to follow the yarn to get to some birthday cards and gifts.

sigh. I can't believe that she's already 7! its all flying by so fast.

being a dad is fun.
