Here's the video I took of the kids as we revealed our big surprise- Disneyland. We had checked out of our hotel in Huntington Beach, and they were under the impression we were heading home. I started taping hoping I could catch their reaction when they saw the park out their windows. But on the drive to the hotel, you could not see Disneyland at all, so rather than complete excitement, their reaction is more shock. I love Kacia's "yay" at the end because it lacks much enthusiasm and is instead, our daughter doing what she does-processing. She is trying to wrap her brain around it all, before she gets too excited, she wants to be certain it's not some mean joke. Even after I turned the tape off, and we got out of the van, and are standing in front of the Grand Californian- all I hear is "Really mom? This is really Disneyland? We're really staying?" Then- the excitement erupted and they went completely crazy in the parking lot!!!

This took many attempts and forever to upload, not sure why it's so grainy, but you get the idea Tim. Love you!
This is awesome. I particularly enjoyed the fact that everyone was pretty excited about being at Disneyland, though it was not until Kevin said you were going to be there for six days that Kacia and Rylin erupted. Somehow the time element seemed to make it more real, or just more exciting. Thanks for sharing.
