why the buser family may be "family bedding it" for the next few months...

the buser bunch has done a disney/so cal trip several times in the past.  it was fun, for sure, but due to some height restrictions and age limitations did not allow for a true "family" vacation.  in the past, we have had to do a lot of "divide and conquer".  don't get me wrong.  we have always had a blast, but this disney/ so cal trip will go down in the record books as the year we took disney by storm...  TOGETHER.  we packed a lot into this little spring break get-away, laughed our pants off and screamed our heads off.  

below is the (mostly) "disney ride-cam" version of our escapades.

but before we could get our scream on, we had to get a little beach on...

newport beach does not disappoint...

 practicing our handwriting (once a teacher, always a teacher):

see, you really DO love your sisters:

who could mad at this tea party?:

pops and the gang getting our space mt. on:

big thunder mountain "selfie" with e:

even the popstar loves the thunder mountain:

and a little more family splash:

and while i've never been a fan of "happily ever after" or "wishing on a star", i do love the castle at night and the fireworks that follow:

and nothing beats outer space at night:

e was finally old/tall enough to ride california screaming but momma might be too old...  nah.  you're never too old:

and radiator springs did not disappoint...  although it turned momma into cousin it:

and while we may have chosen to avoid the family bed in the younger years, pops and d (who were encouraged to go on this ride possibly slightly against their will) are voting for the family bed now.  in the words of p: mom, i was terrified on tower of terror.

(note to the mommas of the world...  maybe skip this one for the eight and under group.)

and apparently, momma has lost all sensation.  how is it possible that i look bored on california screaming'?  maybe i rode it one time too many.  giggle.

and that's a wrap folks.  back to school and routine and life as usual tomorrow morning.  i hope your spring break was filled with happy family memories and smiles to last a lifetime.
