Moving On To Something More Pleasant...Trip Highlights Part 1

So my dad died the day before my birthday. If any of you know me, you know I mostly deal with things by using humor.... I couldn't help thinking all day on my birthday, " Piper Wise, your dad just died, what are you going to do?" "I'm going to DISNEYLAND!"
Yes, I'm crass. We had already planned this, because you can get in for free at D-Land on your birthday this year! Bonus!
The next day, we visited Great Granny June. She will be 91 soon. She lives by herself and is very independent. She is one of the sweetest ladies I know. She is so teeny tiny and so cute. I wish we lived closer. What a great lady!

You are so funny! Sometimes our humor is all we have.

If there's any place that can make you happy no matter what is going on, it's Disneyland!

I bet Grandma Wise just loved seeing all of you. She is so cute!

That is pretty funny. Well, did you at least have a carmel apple or chirro in his honor?

Wow, you weren't kidding about how tall (or should I say, teeny?) Great Granny is? Man alive! She's adorable! :o) Thanks for asking about my talk...it was fabulous and everyone loved my hair :o) Thanks again! Love you!

I am so happy that you guys got to take a vacation and just relax! Nothing like having the family picture in front of that tree - what is it?! We have some great pictures in front of that ol' bugger! Love the picture of Grandma and the baby!
