Grandma's weekend getaway

This post is long overdue...with all the excitement about starting Kindergarten, I forgot to document this special weekend!

Grandma spoiled Spencer rotten the weekend before Kindergarten started. She whisked him away to a hotel by Disneyland for two days, where they enjoyed many things together, just the two of them: the breakfast buffet, the hotel pool, the TV in the hotel room, new art supplies Grandma bought him, the shuttle to and from Disneyland, and of course Disneyland itself! Grandpa joined them at Disneyland when he could, and I know Spencer enjoyed the time alone with his grandparents.


He had SUCH a great time. In fact, so much so that he didn't at all like that his Mother, Father and siblings joined them on their last day at Disneyland. He was seriously SO disappointed to see us show up and ruin the fun he was having alone! lol

Thanks so much Grandma! We really do appreciate you taking the time to make these special memories with Spencer. xoxo



Doesn't this just make you want to be a kid again?

Looks like Spencer had a great time! I remember when mom used to take McKay away to a hotel and D-land. When Carter heard where Spencer was going, man did the tears start flowing! Do we have the best mom or what??!!

Oh that last picture will be one of your (and Spencer and Grandma's) for the rest of your life. That is such a precious moment that you captured. It brings tears to my eyes.

SO, I was thinking that maybe Mrs. D could adopt me and I could hang out with her and do fun stuff, too. Do you think she would be into that?!
