In 2011 we journeyed to Anaheim to our first LPA conference. It was HUGE and OVERWHELMING to say the least. We signed Mr. C up for the DAAA ( Dwarf Athletic Association) futures division. He loved the track and field events. We stayed at the Conference Hotel for 5 days and my folks stayed at an RV park just 5 minutes away. My brother and my sister in law joined us for the adventure as well. I learned a lot and for our next conference might do a few things different. It was truly an amazing experience and we are planning on going again when the conference is in San Diego in 2014. We loved meeting new families and I LOVED meeting other moms. It's amazing the connection you have...you can live miles away...but still feel like good friends. Facebook is an amazing thing for keeping in touch with families and new friends. I'm looking forward to the next one. Mr. C will be that much older and can dance the night away. That is one regret I have, I wish we would have let him dance, socialize a bit more. He had such a great time at the ALPA conference because I let him lead the way.
