Disneyland

We spent 3 days in Disneyland and California Adventure.  It was between 60 and 70 degrees and short lines.  Exactly what we were hoping for. 

Kent 36, Shelley 31, Maleah 9, Aubree 7, Kendra 4, Carson 10 months

Aladdin and Jasmine

Jungle Cruise 

Eeyore 

Carson LOVED the characters.  It was so stinkin cute. 

Making giant custom pixie sticks in the pooh bear candy shop. 

I would say Kendra and Carson rode a couple different merry go rounds about 15 times atleast. 

Pooh Bear is my all time favorite.  He was my childhood character. 

The Toy Story ride was AWESOME!  The line was 35 minutes (way too long for our liking) but we had to do it atleast once and it was well worth it. 

Cruella Deville was such a character.  Her face says it all.  My girls didn't know what to think of her. Kendra wouldn't go near her.

People kept asking me if these two were twins.  I would say no, and then they would ask who's older.  

Finding Nemo submarine ride

It's a small world



Oh Minnie, she's so sweet!  I just can't get enough of some of the Disney Characters.  They are so much fun and so magical.

Kent refused to ride the teacups because he get's sick.  I just close my eyes the whole time on dizzy rides.  Then I don't get sick.

Melt my heart!  10 months old

Aubree spent some of her souvenier money on this cute Minnie hat.  She wore it everyday.

We tried to get Carson to wear a hat to protect that bald little head, but he won't leave anything on.

My happily ever after

I love this picture.  We were watching the Disney parade, it was so fun to see the magic in Kendra's eyes.  She doesn't remember our last trip to Disneyland when she was 2, so it was all new to her.

My blue eyed baby.  He got comments and drew attention everywhere we went.

Aubree and Maleah bought giant jawbreakers

This is so sad.  Maleah talked Kendra into going on Tower of Terror.  Aubree waited outside with me and was going to wait and see what Kendra thought about it before she decided if she would ride it.  Kent took this picture below with his phone after the ride.  She was terrified.

She came off the ride crying.  Aubree asked her if it was really scary or just kind of scary and she said in the saddest little voice  "well it feels like you are gonna die"

Carson gets so excited about everything.  He was such a good boy.

Another merry go round ride

Buzz

2 years ago when we went to Disneyland, I saw everyone eating Turkey legs and I never got one.  So this year I told Kent I really wanted to try one.  They are delicious to say the least.

Cute Jesse!


Dumbo

Aubree would occasionally get in the stroller and hold Carson on her lap.  Look at that chubby face!

Oh this melts my heart.  Maleah and Aubree were such cute little buddies on the trip.  They discovered they loved the roller coaster screamin and went on it over and over and over.  They would hold hands and skip through the park.  It's not something you see very often because at home they fight alot.  It was so nice, we would just walk behind them and enjoy.  That's one of those parent payoff moments.

Pluto

Handy Manny

The girls each had autograph books and got all the characters autographs.

Goofy

Aubree riding the swings.  Aww......I love the fresh air blowing in my hair

Their favorite ride.  It was so nice that Aubree was 7 because she was old enough and tall enough to go on the rides by herself without an adult.  Maleah and Aubree just kept going over and over on Screamin and we would ride the kiddie rides nearby.

World of Color show

That's all folks!  How is that for A LOT of pictures.  My kids were SO incredibly happy and hyper on the last night on the train ride back to the parking lot. They were entertaining all the people on the train because they were being so silly.  Kent was a little embarrassed.  I thought it was great.  They were just having fun.

FUN!!!! Disneyland is my most favorite place, by far!!! Looks like a successful trip! I love that picture with you and Kent and the "Happily Ever After." So perfect!

I can't believe Kendra did Tower of Terror. I hate that ride, I feel like I'm going to die too!:)

I didn't know you guys went to Disneyland. It looks like you had tons of fun. I am sad that we won't be going there again for a long time.
