Mother's Day at the Magic Kingdom

I can imagine that Disneyland would not be the best location that one would choose to celebrate Mother's Day. I would probably agree with that...However, we had a blast with our friends from Colorado (Rob, Chandra, Josh, and Amanda) and from San Diego (Mandel, Lisa, Brock and Chloe). We have annual vacations with the same friends every year. This is the ninth year we've gotten together. Our relationships remind me of the old Alan Alda film "Same Time Next Year."

When we first started getting together we were all newlyweds with no kids. Little by little, that has all changed and now each couple has two kids, and all of them are around the same ages. We have grown through our lives together. We have had parents die, babies born, jobs turned over, moves out of state, and more that have enriched the relationships that we share. I count myself blessed to have friends like the ones that we shared Mother's Day with...and Scott and Renee who were unable to join us at Disneyland. Our "vacations" each year are a must regardless what else invades our calendars. Thanks for the memories and the future ones we have yet to make.

And yes, Mimi, had a great time on Mother's Day as well.
