Disneyland

This was the most fun trip ever!! We drove down to California on Sunday and stayed until the next Sunday. One full week of family time...heaven! The kids were so excited to go to Disneyland. This has been a long awaited trip. We went about 5 years ago when Maycie was just a baby and Addy was only 5 so it was a much different experience. The girls were up for trying just about anything! We went every ride they were tall enough for. Perfect ages for Disney. There were only 3 rides Maycie couldn't go on.
We took it nice and easy. Had a few times where we just sat down for a few minutes. This was one of those times. Addy snapped this picture for us. This was our first trip without a stroller! It was so wonderful, I felt free! The girls were such troopers. By the fifth day on our way back to the hotel there were two girls who said my feet hurt...so did mine if someone would have offered to carry me I would have been happy with that!
The Rapids. This particular time we got soaked! It was our last ride of the day and we walked back drenched!


I was shocked that everyone loved all the "big" rides. Space Mountain was a favorite of everyone! We were lucky because there really weren't lines we had to wait it so we were able to go on lots of rides over and over!



The Jellyfishes





Pirates of the Caribbean. We walked right on to this ride anytime we wanted. It is a nice on to take a little break on. The first time on most rides Maycie was a little apprehensive. On Pirates she pretended her fingers were guns in case she needed to shoot and mean pirates. Adorable. After each new ride we would ask her if she liked it. Her response was usually I don't know yet. About two minutes later she would say... I loved it lets go again!




California Adventure
Adelyn's favorite ride-California Screamin'
Makenley-Tower of Terror
Alexiya-Muholland Madness and Tower of Terror
Maycie-Muholland Madness and Tower of Terror
The kids all LOVED Muholland Madness! There was on time we went on it 6 times in a row. Did not even get out of the ride! NO line is the best!
The few time we had to wait we played Jon-kim-poe! Pretty much rock-paper-scissors with a little twist. The longest line was for Toy Story Mania. About a 30 min. wait. Totally worth it!







The girls picked these huge suckers for their treat on the first day. It is about as big as Maycie's head!








Favorite rides in Magic Kingdom-
Addy-Space Mountain
Kenley, Lexi and Maycie-Splash Mountain and Space Mountain
The best trip ever. I will always remember it!
