Disneyland!

About 2 weeks ago, we spent a lovely little 2-day family trip to Disneyland & California Adventure.  Just like last year, we did this to celebrate the end of another tax season and we really enjoyed the all-day together family time.  

 The kids did really well and loved all the rides.  Sam's favorites were Peter Pan & Autopia.  

 Samuel was super excited to meet Peter Pan himself after riding the ride!  

 The boys also had the chance to meet Tigger & Pooh.  Micah did great and walked right up to them when it was his turn.  :)  (I wasn't sure how he'd be, considering just a couple weeks prior, he started crying when the Chick-fil-A cow came up to him.)  But, at Disneyland, he didn't seem to mind the characters at all!  

 Day 2 was spent at California Adventure.  We spent most of the day with our good friends, and the kids had a blast hanging out and riding all the rides together.   

 One of the highlights for Samuel was watching the Disney Junior Live show, where he got to see Jake & the Neverland Pirates.  :)  Micah's favorite part, I think, was riding Tow Mater's Junkyard Jamboree, pictured below.  He LOVED to watch the tractors and couldn't wait to ride this one.  

Ready to go!  

 

I can't tell you how many times the kids rode the carousel...  4 or 5, maybe?

And this was my absolute, most-favorite ride.  :)  Hollywood Tower of Terror... highly recommended!  For some reason, I can't help but smile & laugh the entire time.  :)  

 On our last day, we dined with Mickey & friends for breakfast.  

 The kids had fun playing & dancing with Mickey, Minnie, Daisy, Pluto & Stitch.  

Don't you just love Micah's smile?  SO great!  

 And this is how we all felt after our trip was over...  thoroughly exhausted!  But what a great trip it was - can't wait to go back!
