Disneyland

This past week I had the opportunity to take a little DREAM getaway to Disneyland With Kenedy, Tenille and her two kids, Grandma Jo, and Jake and Chelsea. I hadn't been to Disneyland in such a long time I didn't quite know what I was in for. I knew that we were mainly going to see the princess', but there was so much more that was in store for us.
At the last minute we decided to pack the kiddos in the car and drive. We told ourselves we were in for a long journey and prepared ourselves to leave Sunday night. We made it to Las Vegas that night and then continued on to California the next morning. I must say the kids were great (thank you to Tenille's DVD players).
We arrived at our hotel and dropped of our things and headed straight to the park. We packed 5 full days of Disneyland and by the end of the week we still hadn't seen everything.
So here is just a recap of some special moments and fun times with the cousins throughout the week.

Tenille, Bo, and Rylee getting a fresh start with the Tea cups.

Passing the time while waiting for Aerial the mermaid with their "Funny Faces".

Is that really my cousin Rylee?

Princess Belle and Princess Aurora

We attended Goofy's kitchen dinner where the kids got to dance, bang pots and pans and be silly with their friends. Did I mention we ate lots and lots of yummy food.

Wednesday- This was our early entry day where we were able to hop right onto any rides we wanted 1 hr. before the park opened. So we hit up our usual Dumbo, Peter pan, tea cups, etc... we also wanted to go Tomorrow land to see buzz and ride his ride, and then venture off to Toontown. Kenedy loved the buzz ride because she got to shoot at anything and everything, and the lights were beaming all around her. We also attended a Jedi training where Boston was chosen to become a Jedi. We were so proud of him and admit it was a little scary to face all those bad guys. We then had lunch at the Rain Forest Cafe where Jake and Chelsea entertained our children while we waited for our meal.
Later that evening we attended the Main Street parade and staked out a great seat so the kids could be up close with all the entertainment.
Kenedy and Grandma Jo anxiously awaiting the princess' who were making their way in our direction.

When Kenedy met her "Favorite Princess Friend" Belle she was completely start struck. she couldn't stop staring at her. When Belle asked Kenedy what her name was Kenedy simply looked down at her dress and said "Well, I am Belle of course" DUH? She couldn't figure out why Belle would ask such a question didn't she notice her gown?

Cooling off after a lot of walking and playing hard.

By the end of the week our kiddos were showing little signs of wearing down, so we decided to head home to anxious Daddy's awaiting our arrival!!
Thank you Everyone who came for such a wonderful time and even better memories!
