Yes we really did it! We went to Disneyland the last week of February and it was a great experience. I don't know if I'd call it the HAPPIEST place on earth, but that is because even while in Disneyland children still tend to whine, complain of hunger, and need frequent potty breaks. But sitting on the rides next to my kids was really, really fun. Except It's a Small World. That ride is extremely annoying and creepy. It also rained most of one of the days, and I never expected to be cold and wet at Disneyland. But enough of that. All in all.........FUN!
This was SUCH a fun little studio we stayed in. It had a little kitchen too.
One thing about going in February....it's still a little chilly, although not freezing like in Utah. So getting into the pool was brave, but once in it wasn't too bad.
Sacked out after a long day. I loved that part of the day, when the kids were sacked out :)
Spent a day at the beach. Again, a little chilly but the kids first time so very fun!
Riley had one focus: collect seashells, no matter how big or small, and broken was okay by him :)
A little cold Malia?
We saw a sea lion in the water near the end of this pier. It kept popping out of the water and "barking" at us!
I really appreciated when the long lines for rides at least had some entertaining aspects to help distract kids.
I took this before the kids woke up for the day. They are spooning! They would never knowingly do this :)
Ben is showing off Malia's "cheater" shoes we put on her whenever we wanted to go on one of the rides she was an inch too short for. She hated those shoes, they were to small, but the big heels plus the little foam inserts I put in helped her pass the height test. Unfortunately they gave her a blister and then we paid the price for our sneaky ways. But seeing her excitement on Thunder Mountain Railroad and Space Mountain was WELL worth it!
In line for space mountain.
Can't go to Disneyland without the classic castle picture.
Malia finding ways to stay entertained in line.
My two guys. Two very masculine males....sitting in a teacup.
I wish my camera had captured this better. It was a night time parade, and like everything at Disney it was very cool.
Finally home. The least fun part! For the last 40 miles or so we drove through a TERRIBLE snow storm. It was not awesome.
