"It's time to go to Disney Land!!!" Grayson yells, opening our bedroom and I groan. Almost on queue, Delilah's phone goes off for the alarm and we both share an exasperated sigh. I look over at her and she looks at me.

"You ready for this weekend?" I ask.

"No." She states simply and sits up, throwing her blanket off of her. She leaves the room and I hear her tell the kids that we have 2 hours to leave so showers and brushed teeth need to start right away.

I follow her out, tossing my shirt over my torso and heading out to the kitchen to start breakfast.
Pancakes are easy to make and to clean up so that's what I make.
First out of the bathroom is Violet, I wish her a good morning before distributing 2 pancakes on her plate.

"Are you excited for today?" I ask, cleaning up the bowl of pancake mix.

"Very excited!" She exclaims and I acknowledge her excitement. "Have you ever been?" She questions.

"Once when I was a kid. I'm sure it's changed since then but it was definitely fun." I inform and I can tell by her face that added to her excitement.
"What are you most excited to see?" I ask, placing the bowl in the dish drainer and turning to her. She pauses as she chews her food, trying to figure it out before saying,

"Everything." And I can see the wonder in her eyes.

"Good answer." I high five her just as Grayson comes out.

"Hey daddy." He yawns sleepily. "Mommy said make her 3 cakes, she's extra hungry." He informs and I nod. "And to shape mine like dinosaurs."

"Oh?" I humor him. "Well did mommy tell you that this is a one shape place? I can do a circle." I explain and he pouts for a second before agreeing to it. I take a pancake from the stack and place it on his place before ruffling his perfectly groomed hair.

"Daddy!" He shouts, slapping my hand and I laugh.

"So, Gray...your sister and I were just talking about how excited we are. How excited are you?"

"Hmmm?" He taps his chin as if he's thinking.

"Scale of 1 to 10." I help with him his answer. He ponders for a second and then smiles.

"A hundred million thousand!!!" He exclaims. My eyes go wide at his reaction.

"Well Violet, I think we have a new winner for who's more excited." I laugh and she does too. Grayson begins to scarf down his food and I laugh before making myself a plate. There's enough left for Delilah to have 3 like she asked and for Asher to have one.

Finally, still having an hour left, Asher makes an appearance and he steps up to the table, I place his food down and ruffle his hair too.

"Are you excited for today?" I question.

"I don't know what's happening." He informs me and I laugh at his response. We assumed he wouldn't know what was happening as he's too young so maybe I should break it down for him.

"Well, do you like Mickey Mouse?" I ask, knowing one of his favorite shows is Mickey Mouse.

"Yes!" He beams.

"Well were going to meet him." His eyes go the widest I've ever seen him and he yells at the top of his lungs before getting up from his seat and dancing on the chair.

"It's the Mickey Mouse-club house. Come inside, it's fun inside." He sings and the 3 of us laugh.

"Asher, please sit." Delilah asks as she comes in. Asher stops in his tracks and plops back down. "B, can you go get ready. I'll watch the kids." She says as she finishes brushing her hair. I nod and stand, my plate completely empty.

After we're all ready, we get in the car and begin our drive. It's only about an hour but with 3 kids, it'll most likely be two.
2 bathroom breaks, one snack break and one driver switch later and we are pulling into a parking spot at Disney Land.

"Are we here?" Asher asks as he sits up from his nap.

"We sure are buddy." I tell him and he instantly perks up. He looks around at the parking lot and gets sad.

"Looks boring." He whines and we all laugh.

"No, this is just the parking lot sweetie." Delilah says before getting out of the car and coming around to help him out, Grayson and Violet get out on the other side.
Delilah then grabs her beach bag with everything in it and we begin our walk to the park.
