On our way to Disneyland!

Glad to be back here!

Everyone's first time riding The Little Mermaid ride!

Auntie Katie was SOOO excited!

Braiden says to Auntie Katie, "Ha! Ha! Sucker!"

cuz he got to ride in the GREEN clamshell!

HUG Mickey!!!

KISS Mickey!

SIT on Mickey!

Braiden LOVED interacting with Mickey.  He wanted to give him hugs and kisses and when we said to stand and turn around to take pictures he asked Mickey if he could sit on his knee!  The rest of the day Braiden seemed to have his own agenda of looking for the rest of the gang of Disney characters.

A Game Of Braiden Says

As we were all winding down for night,  knowing that the next morning would be a sad one... Dad, Shirley and Nate would be the first ones to go back home... Katie and I were in the living room talking and Braiden decided to come over and give us each a pillow and blanket.  He told us to go nite nite.  Then one by one as everyone came out from taking their showers,  Braiden did the same, passed them each a pillow and blanket and then gave them a place to lay down and go nite nite.  Slowly he realized that there wasn't enough space for everyone so we got moved to the family room.  He specifically gave each one of us a spot and put us ALL to bed.  He kept an eye on us and made sure we were all snug. 
It was a game of "Braiden Says" just like Simon Says.  He would arrange and rearrange accordingly to fit us all together!!!  He even tried out each spot on his own to figure out the most comfortable spot for himself!

Making a space in between Grandpa & Sissy

Telling Mommy and Daddy to lay down.

Not enough space to stretch my arms out.
