Chapter Twenty One

Disneyland Vacation

Meredith was packing when Sammy came in. "Hey Angel. Are you excited about our trip?" she asked. "You get to go to Sea World and Disneyland. You also get to see Uncle Mark and Aunt Addy."

"Yeah," Sammy replied.

After awhile, Derek and Meredith decided to take a vacation with the family. They had wanted to go for years, but always been busy with work. When they asked where Sammy wanted to go, she told them Disney World. Derek and Meredith thought that was too far. Yet, they were willing to fly to California so she could go to Disneyland. Sammy quickly agreed.

Derek and Meredith talked about how much time to take off. They decided that they would stay for a week. They also decided to fly since it would be too many hours driving. Sammy was excited about flying on an airplane for the first time.

Sammy stared out the window. When they got on the plane, she insisted on two things. One, she would get a window seat and her mommy would sit beside her. She got her two wishes.

Sammy then got excited as the pilot announced that they would in Los Angeles soon. When they finally got off and passed security, Sammy rushed away from her parents. Derek and Meredith let her, knowing that she had seen Addison and Mark.

Derek and Meredith followed Sammy over to Mark and Addison. They were going to stay with them for the day before going down to Disneyland. Derek and Mark shook hands. As the months passed, Derek had slowly swallowed his pride and finally forgiven Mark. Meredith was glad since it had been years since the whole fight.

After settling in, they had a small party with Addison's and Derek's old friends. Meredith felt uncomfortable but his friends welcomed her and the children. They fell in love with them and Meredith's worries went away.

Soon, they were on their way to Disneyland. Addison went with them for an extra pair of hands. Sammy was thrilled. They first went to their hotel to check in. Sammy groaned, wanting to go to the park right away. Derek and Meredith said that they would after settling in again.

When they arrived, Sammy insisted on meeting Mickey and his friends first. So that was what they did. Sammy was thrilled to meet the famous mouse and his friends. However, Noah wasn't really in the mood. He fussed the whole time. After a morning of meeting Disney characters, Sammy was ready for some rides.

"Which ride do you want to go on first?" Meredith asked.

"Dumbo," Sammy cried. She had heard enough about Dumbo over the last few months that she was ready to ride it. Sammy loved it, especially when she found out she could make the elephant ride up and down. When it was over, she didn't want to get off until someone mentioned the Winnie the Pooh ride. Sammy immediately grabbed her mommy's hand and followed them through the exit. After that fun ride, they decided to get some lunch.

"Ok Sammy. Daddy and I are going to go on some rides now. You and Noah are going to stay here with Aunt Addy," Meredith said.

"How come I can't come?" Sammy asked.

"They are more grown-up rides," Meredith replied.

"Come on. We're going to walk around. Maybe we'll see some more Disney characters," Addy said. Sammy then smiled and nodded. She then waved good-bye to her parents.

Derek and Meredith went onto Space Mountain, the Pirates of the Caribbean and the Haunted Mansion. After that, they went to find Addison and the kids. At supper, Sammy told her parents how they saw Dopey, the White Rabbit and Chip and Dale.

After supper, they headed back to the hotel. Sammy immediatly took a nap, exhausted from her day at the park.

The next day, they went on more rides and meet some more characters. Sammy was thrilled when she got to meet Pooh and his friends and the Disney Princesses. They also went into some of the shops. Derek and Meredith bought Sammy another Disney princess shirt. They also bought a little Mickey Mouse for Noah.

After two days of Disneyland Park, they stayed at the hotel and went on the beach. Sammy looked for seashells and helped Derek build a sandcastle. Over the next few days, they just relaxed. One day, Addison even let Derek and Meredith go off on their own for a whole day. Derek and Meredith decided to just go for a drive to see what they could see.

On the final day, Derek and the family went back to the park again. This time, they stayed all day into the night. Sammy wanted to ride everything one last time. So they did. After a long day, Sammy was dying to see the fireworks. Derek held her so she could see them higher than if she was on the ground.

As they packed up, Derek and Meredith glanced at each other. "This was a great trip, wasn't it?" Meredith asked.

"Yeah, we should do this more often. It would be great to come back when Noah's a little older," Derek replied.

Meredith agreed. "Yeah, I think he was a little young. Sammy enjoyed herself though."

Later, they said goodbye to Addison. They thanked her for everything. Addison told them that she was glad to do it.

As they were on the plane home, Meredith turned to Sammy. "What was your favorite part?"

Sammy thought for a moment. "All of it," Sammy replied.

Meredith had to agree. "Daddy and I promise that we'll come back here again when Noah is a little older," Meredith promised her. As Sammy fell asleep, Meredith sat back in her seat. She smiled to herself, thrilled that the first family vacation was a success.
