Disneyland!

Last month we got to go to Disneyland! We'd been talking about it for a while and it finally all came together. I've been wanting to edit our pictures before I put them on here, but my program isn't working, so I'm finally just posting them as they are. Half of them are from my camera and half from my sisters, so they are kind of out of order.

We left Utah on a Sat and drove to Davie's brother's in Vegas. The boys had a blast playing there with there cousins, they loved their room and all their toys.

The first character we met in Disneyland was Pluto! Johnny was SO excited he couldn't contain himself!


This is my favorite picture we got in Disneyland! Look at Johnny's face! He was so so happy, I thought he might cry tears of joy!

Natey wasn't sure what to think and is pouting in this picture, but he's been saying Pluto ever since he met him!

Both of the boys really liked meeting Minnie, Johnny talked about her all day because she kissed him!

Meeting Mickey did not go as I thought it would. Natey's favorite thing ever is Mickey, so I thought he'd be way excited, but he wasn't. I think being in the small room with a bunch of people and being rushed around scared him. Davie took Johnny on the Toon Town Rollercoaster, so my sister and I did a couple things with Natey while we waited. First we met Goofy! Nate liked his nose and played with his wiskers. We went to "Goofy's House" and Natey played his piano, it was so cute and actually played music.
He also played in Goofy's yard!
Johnny saw Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty and had to meet them, yes, he has crushes on the princesses!
These next few picutes are from our 2nd day. We started out in California Adventure Park that day and met Jessie!
Johnny was being so shy with her, and told me later that he didn't want to talk to her because Woody wasn't there.
Johnny was way excited to meet Sully, but he and Natey both fell asleep in the stroller right before he showed up. So here's a picture proving he was there, they just slept through it!
The highlight of our 2nd day was Playhouse Disney Live! I heard about this from my visiting teacher and knew our kids would love it! Here's Johnny's face lighting up when he realized what was going on!My kids were on their feet jumping around throughout the whole show! I think this was their favorite part of the whole trip. They perform Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Handy Manny, My Friends Tigger & Pooh, & Little Einsteins live on stage for you! (Pretty much the only shows we watch) Later the 2nd day we headed back over to Disneyland, and Johnny and his cousin Miriam got to meet Goofy. Not a great picture, they were trying to get him to the parade. Johnny's favorite ride was the Buzz Lightyear ride! I think he went on it like 10 times! He still talks about it every day and how he helped Buzz defeat Zurg! He's way excited to go on the ride, again! Getting ready to fight Zurg! These next pictures are from my sisters camera. This is the first day as we're walking into Disneyland! I love how Natey's sticking his head out trying to see everything!

Still making our way in, he was jumping around in his seat, he was SOO excited!
Toon Town was our first stop because we knew the kids favorite characters would be in there!
This was on Natey's very first ride, the Roger Rabbit one, he did not know what to think!
I love this picture too, this was on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, right after you go down the big drop. Nate slept right through it, it didn't phase him at all!
Captain Jack Sparrow!
This is from the second day, Johnny and Miriam dancing at Playhouse Disney Live!
Natey waiting for the show to start!


Johnny's all time favorite show is Little Einsteins, when he saw them and the rocket he started screaming with joy!



Natey spilled milk all over himself at dinner, it was pretty cute.
We were all waiting in line to go on Nemo's Submarine ride, and Emily and I got bored, so here's one of many wierd pictures, I won't share the rest. BTW, don't ever go on that ride, we waited in line for over and hour, and when you get in there it's so claustrophobic! It's not that cool, it's too long and just shows little clips from the movie, but you feel like you're going to die in the little submarine.
Johnny joined in on the silly faces!
We had a really fun trip, Davie's brother's family came with us to Disneyland, the kids loved having their cousins there with them. We stayed with some family, Mary & Leo, and that was a blast. It was their first time meeting our boys, and the boys LOVED them, Johnny keeps saying he wants to go back to Leo's. We all miss them a lot! Our last day in California we went to San Clemente beach for a few hours, the boys loved the ocean and playing in the sand, they cried when it was time to leave. Those pics will be in another post though.

That is awesome! We have a little over a month until we go. Asher is so excited for his birhtday trip. I can't wait to go see world of color. Asher can't wait for Dumbo, and Autopia, and probably the biggest would be Buzz as well. It looks like they had so much fun!
