Waking up on a warm Christmas morning in Anaheim, California is the greatest feeling in the world. I turn over in my bed and instantly smell Ryan’s morning breath and I am suddenly wide awake. Shaking his shoulder I yakked, “Wake up you goober! It’s Christmas morning and we are going to Carsland today! Wake up, wake, wake up!”
“Diddy, I’m awake, relax I am more excited than you are!!”
(Ryan could never say sissy so he always called me diddy.)
We rush down the stairs of our rental beach house, toward the kitchen where daddy was making chocolate chip mickey mouse shaped pancakes. As we hit the last stair we hear mommy yelping.
"Come see what Santa brought you two!"
We make a u-turn and head to our little Christmas tree that we brought from home. It is literally like a foot tall. Anyway, we head to the couch where we find piles of things for us! I got a Vera Bradley backpack, duffel bag, and straightener holder in my favorite print. Paisley meets plaid. It is mainly gray and pink. Ryan on the other hand got a blue wii for his room and a lot of games. We also got new outfits for Carsland. I got a Perrywinkle Sally shirt, new jeans, and coral pink nike free runs. Ryan got a royal blue Lightning McQueen shirt, jeans and bright orange free runs.
Obviously we want to wear those, so we try and change right that minute, but we were suddenly stopped by daddy’s famous words.
“Breakfast is ready!”
Well, its probably better if we do wait to change, so we wouldn’t get anything on our clothes!
We scarf down dinner and before we know it, we are in Carsland. We take all kinds of pictures, in the huge displays with the head cut outs. We eat at Flo’s cafe, a scrumptious lunch of cheeseburgers, with curly fries and a can of oil as they called it. (But really is was just coke) Ryan and I then took out our $5 bills out from Granny and went to the Casa Dela Tires to buy tire shaped ice cream (Don’t worry it was vanilla ice cream covered in a chocolate hard shell.) And then we saw it. The Convertible Cars races on Route 66. And there was no line! Ryan and I ran to the line and since he was 6 feet tall they let us ride together. As the riide started we made a sharp left turn and all of a sudden I had a sharp pain in my right side.
I am awaken and realize that the perfect day I had just imagined was all a dream. And the reality of it was that I was in my aunt and uncle’s basement with my 3 year old cousin’s foot in my rib. MERRY CHRISTMAS!
