Disney Date

Now that we have two kids, Jim and I want to be intentional about giving each kid special times one on one.  Of course Emily is too young yet to feel any impact from this, but it needs to be a priority with Josh now.

So Josh and I had a date night to Disneyland the week before I returned to work.  I scooped him up from his nap and we headed out for fun.

I really enjoyed our time together.  He has so much fun at Disneyland and is so good waiting in the lines.  We went on a Wednesday afternoon/evening and the lines were pretty short.

We always make a stop to see Mickey Mouse.  This time as we exited, Josh noticed the roller coaster and said he wanted to go on it.  I was surprised and didn't think he really knew what he was asking.  So I suggested we watch it for a little bit, and he still wanted to go.  I found the height requirement and he was so barely was tall enough.  The minimum height is 35 inches and he is just between 35-36.  Whew!

Here is that adventure...

His eyes are comically wide open the entire time.  But his eye were open the entire time!!!  I may have a new thrill-ride-buddy in the makings!  Hooray!  He so serious and just taking it all in.

After we got off, I thought he was asking to go on again.  But it seems he just wanted to watch it.  It's the second time that might be more fun to watch his reaction.
