September 20, 2013 marked Marie's 17th birthday! We were so excited that we got to celebrate with her! After some of our first conversations with her we found out that she had never been to Disneyland or Disneyworld. This sparked an idea to take her to Disneyland for the first time on her birthday! We have family passes and go at least a few times a month so we decided to buy her a season pass so she gets to join in on the Disney fun! Here are a few pictures from her birthday!
On every birthday we make the boys sit on the island to take their picture with their birthday balloons and cake... Marie is now part of our family so we made her do the same...with some coaxing of course!

Marie, Casey and Gabe in front of "It's a small world". We were able to find the Norwegian word "Takk" on a postcard on the ride which made Marie pretty happy!

Marie when we first walked in! We tried to keep Gabe out of the picture, but he loves his big sister Marie! :-)
Just to embarrass the teenager with us Casey jumped up to show his dancing skills! They actually picked my goofy husband...go figure!
