DISNEYLAND!!!

 We only spent a couple days in California visiting my Grandma and a few other relatives, but we made sure to make the best of our time!  I posted this video a while ago (on the kids' last day of school we told them our big plans!).


 Natalie couldn't stop talking about going to Disneyland!  She was, if possible, more excited than me!  She told everyone about it and how excited she was!  I don't think she slept much the night before we went!

Can you see her excitement?!



















This is right when we walked in Disneyland.  I LOVE seeing these pictures even now!  So much joy!!!



























 The first place we went was Toon Town.  We decided to take it easy for their first rides.  We went on the Rodger Rabbit ride...but had to wait at least 30 minutes when we were half way through the line and it broke down.  It was worth the smiles though!














 We then headed to our first roller coaster of the day, the one I took the BEST video ever on!  The kids were just a little excited while waiting in line!

















 I'm pretty sure I've already posted this video as well, but it makes me smile every time, and I've seen it dozens of times!  She seriously screamed like this on EVERY ride, would jump off and ask to do every one again!  (Besides Splash Mountain.  I don't like that one either!)


 


 In front of the castle and Thunder Mountain (we went on Thunder Mt. at least four times).













  On the right, we were in line for Splash Mt.  Ethan loved it, Natalie is on my side and would rather not go again...


We brought some food with us, but were famished and stopped at a BBQ restaurant to replenish our fuel.  The kids thought they were cowboys.







 They crack me up!  I think they were having a good day!



To prove we went on Thunder Mt a few times, it seems most of the pictures I took are of us in line or on the ride.

Natalie pretended she was scared, but couldn't keep it up long before she was giggling.




 Check out that excitement!




 More Thunder Mt.!

And a video on one of our Thunder Mt. rides.


Walking to a different ride.  (Or skipping in Natalie's case.)


 One of my all time favorite rides is Space Mountain.  I remember going over and over on slow days with my grandpa in tow.  The ride was closed most of the day we were there, but luckily it opened about two hours before closing.  It was our last ride of the day, and I think it was the kids' new favorite (after Thunder Mt. of course).



We took pictures of the pictures they took of us on the ride. I don't know why I didn't think about that after going on Splash Mt!  Those were some good pics!








As we were leaving, the streets lit up with lights.  We watched part of the fireworks show, but were on Space Mt for most of it. 


Two very happy kidoes!


Two very sleepy kidoes too!
