Disneyland

We has such a blast at Disneyland. It really is the happiest place, even when my kids are tired and hungry and want to buy stuff that is way overpriced, we still had fun. In fact we had so much fun that we ended up buying season passes so we can go back as many times as we want.

I took Kate to the princess lunch. After waiting in line for 40 minutes just to see the Tangled princess I decided to suck it up and pay to see the princesses. It was so worth it. We walked in and there was Ariel. Kate got to meet her and spend time with her. Then we sat down to lunch and each princess was announced. Then they went from table to table to talk to everyone. First was Sleeping Beauty. When Kate saw her she waved so cute to her and was so excited. Next came Kate's favorite, Belle. Kate was wearing her Belle costume. She walked up and hugged Belle then Belle asked Princess Kate to twirl with her. Of course Kate did and it was darling. After that was Cinderella and Snow White. It was so fun to talk with the princesses. When Kate asked Rapunzel where Flynn Rider was her reply was "he is with Maximus getting me a Valentine's Day present." Too cute and too sweet I am so glad we did this. Kate's pictures with the princesses.

Kate's favorites besides the princesses: the tea cups, the caterpillar, Toy Story. Kate's non princess pictures of Disneyland.

Jay's favorites: river rafting, Monster's Inc., space mountain, soaring over California, pirates, and the tea cups. I had to bribe Jay with ice cream to take a picture with Woody, he never wanted to get in any of the pictures. Jay rode on the Tower of Terror and will never go again, but he did it.

Jack's favorites: Tower of Terror, California screaming, Indiana Jones, Thunder Mountain, river rafting ("it was like the best ride"). Jack was a trooper he wanted to go on all of the big kid rides but everyone once in awhile we had to do little kid things and he did them. Jack has no fear and wanted to ride all of the scary rides again and again. Jack's pictures of Disneyland.

We really had a great time and our kids had a blast. Even though the first three rides we took them on scared them, Indiana Jones, Pirates, and the haunted mansion. Once we got those rides out of the way and they started to see Disneyland they were so happy.

Ryan's favorites: seeing Kate smile, going on rides with Jack and Jay and watching their faces, Jay still being young enough to cling to my arm cause he is scared.

Dyan's favorites: all of it. I loved being with my family. I loved having a group of friends to show us the ropes of Disneyland. I loved that Jack has no fear. I loved watching Jay become a little less afraid of the rides as the days went on. I loved Kate wanting to see the princesses and calling Sleeping Beauty, Stinky Bootie. I loved watching Fanstamic. I loved it all.
