Disneyland!!


We had an awesome time at Disneyland this year. The girls loved it and were so sad to come home. We were so glad to have our friends there with us to share in the magic of it all.:)
Here are some of the highlights of our trip:
  • Eating breakfast at Ariel's Grotto with all the Princesses.
  • Eating lunch at The Blue Bayou restaurant in the Pirates of the Carribean ride.
  • Eating churros and ice cream whenever it sounded good.
  • Eating fresh kettlecorn in Downtown Disney.
  • Eating cheescake from the Cheesecake Factory that just happened to be across the street from our hotel (coinsidence? I think not.)


Ok I will include some highlights that don't involve eating, although after getting home I look like and feel like that is all we did.:)






  • Gracie screaming "Mou" for Mickey Mouse everytime she saw anything with mickey on it, which is about every 2.5 seconds in Disneyland. It was adorable.
  • Watching Bella do a potty dance everytime we were in line for something she felt anxious or excited about. Instead of a nervous stomach she gets a nervous bladder!
  • Watching Jessica get all teary eyed during the parade, it really is magical.
  • Letting Gracie ride the carousel 3 times in a row because she loved it so much, and because there was no line so we could.
  • Knowing that Bryan is happier there than almost anywhere. Thank you for sharing your love of Disneyland with us honey, and taking us on such an awesome vacation!

The girls absolutely loved spinning in the teacups.

Disneyland is always a blast. Unfortunately, it has blasted my waistline in unfortunate ways. I took the "Be Our Guest" song too seriously. In the future I will try and remember that only ONE "spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down." Twelve is certainly not required. Also there was no medicine. So twelve was clearly inappropriate.

What a fun trip! Isn't Disney the best? We are seriously addicted, and can't wait for our next trip. I always get teary eyed at the parades too.
The pictures are just wonderful. Bella is so big...she looks exactly the same just much taller!
