I'm going to Disneyla-a-a-and!

So after a fabulous time on the beach we headed to Disneyland.  We spent two days there and had the best time but ohmygosh it’s exausting!  The kids loved all the rides, with Nemo and The Little Mermaid being the faves.  It was so nice being able to take Jack on most of them and to have the in-laws help when we couldn’t.  I’m not sure I could ever go back during a busy season...the most we ever waited was about 25 minutes and that was only for like Splash Mountain and The Materhorn.  Most of the rides we were able to walk right on, it was ideal!  Sophie was a little timid with the characters at first, but her and Mady had a fun time filling up their autograph books.  We ate lunch with the princesses and bought the girls each their own princess dress for the occasion.  Mady was so cute...she wanted to be Rapunzul so we got her the dress and this long braided wig.  She didin’t want to wear the wig during lunch except when each Princess came out.  “Hurry Mom, put on my hair so they think I’m the real Rapunzul”.  Pretty sure this will be the Year of Disney at our house...Halloween, Birthdays, Christmas...they are pretty into it right now!

The only thing that went wrong the entire trip was that I left my camera charger in Newport.  So the entire second day of pics are from our phones...boo.  But other than that it was a super successful family vacation, can't wait to go back! 


Toon Town.  They LOVED Mickey and MInnie's houses!



Mady loves Tangled, she was so happy to meet these guys!
