They Told Them / myLot

United States

October 17, 2025 12:09pm CST

So my sister wasn’t going to tell the kids until November about going to Disneyland, but the week had gone so poorly for her and Jeff that they needed to be cheered up. So they sat the kid’s down with a Happy Meal (a rare treat), and recorded them hearing the news. This is a screenshot from their reaction. Annelyn is starting to scream a scream that hurt my head (she then goes running throughout the downstairs), Amyra is full of joy, and Hudson is trying to decipher what my sister just said over Annelyn’s scream.

Any good news lately?

They look a bit shell shocked and now the long wait until November at least they do have Halloween to look forward to, That is the one thing I did not like about being a child being told what was going to happen and where we would be going because it did not matter if I wanted to or not I would not be left behind

That photo is pure magic! So clever that they thought to record the reactions.

I asked them too. I wanted to see it in person, but of course I couldn’t. Seeing them excited makes me so happy!

@JudyEv She had to repeat it since he wasn’t wearing his hearing aids. I’m the video, he gets excited.

@AmbiePam Well, it seems they are beyond excited - except for little Hudson but I'm sure he caught up very quickly.

Other than my book appearing on the Barnes & Noble website, nothing new or noteworthy. That's a great photo.

They were very psyched. They knew my sister was taking me to Disneyland, but we didn’t know until recently circumstances were allowing them to come too.

Oh, yeah. I could never afford it, but they have a good income, and are very good with their money.

That little Annelyn is a spitfire of energy, for sure! I am glad they are so excited about the trip. Yes, you will have to hear about it, but then again, it's worth the sweet happy faces.

I have already FaceTimed the girls to talk about it. I knew once they knew, I’d get excited about it again too.
