This morning Tabitha informed us she was ready to try the Matterhorn at Disneyland. She has actually been on it twice but doesn't remember. So, off we went. I know it sounds crazy, but we've been battling her fear of the unknown for a long time and if she's starting to come around and want to try things then we want to do everything we can to encourage her. Chris had an online draft for his fantasy baseball team at 9:00am so we went after that and Disney was already pretty busy by the time we got there. Not to mention it was definitely going to be a hot day. We went straight to the Matterhorn and the wait was only about 20 minutes which is not bad at all. We rode it and the first thing the child said afterwards was "I am not riding that again." She really didn't like it. But I told her she doesn't have to like the rides, I'm just proud of her for trying them.

After we got home and had lunch, my mom and sister came over and watched Lion King 1 1/2 with Tabitha and Chris and I ducked out for a little while. We just ran to Home Depot to get new faucet handles in the guest bathroom and I also got some new flower seeds to plant. Chris and I wandered Home Depot for awhile as we like to dream of future home improvement projects. We picked up some groceries and then came home. Since then we've just all been doing our own thing and hanging out. Chris will put Tabi to bed in a few minutes and then maybe we'll watch a movie or something.
