Other fun at Disneyland

Here is the third and final part of our Disneyland Trip. Lots of pictures. Again this was such a fun trip. It was good to go with family and let the cousins play together. I did however feel we were just following them around when we were together. They however watched the kids for some of the rides me and Joe wanted to ride that the kids can't ride. It was great fun.

First Ride was the Carousal. Whitley and I ended up on the bench, kids have to be sitting on the seat to ride a horse.

Isaiah and Maleah.

Mad Hatter's house or the rabbits I can't remember.
It's a Small World, The girls smiled for other pictures but I didn't get Izaiah in them.
The best family shot, waiting for the Princesses of course.
Pirate Treasure on the Island. You can totally get lost there.
Winnie the Pooh ride for just mom and Whitley. Maleah was napping.
Princess float during the parade. The parade was really cute and the music was good and plays the whole time.
Free buttons. We all got Honorary Citizens of Disneyland. 1st visit for the girls and Joe. Then Celebrating button.
Minnie Ears, Yes the only time she would wear them and only for a couple minutes waiting for the parade to start.
Dinner at the rain forest cafe. Jordyn and Maleah running between our table and Jordyn's Aunt and Uncle's table. They almost caused several crashes before we could stop them.

Dumbo elephant next to the ride. Maleah refused to ride this one.


Casey Junior Train. We rode in the money cage.
In line for the new Ariel ride. It was really cute and the line went by fast. We rode it twice.


Ariel ride, you ride in a half shell

The Under Sea Carousel in CA. Maleah picked out the whale for her and the sea otter for Daddy and Mommy.
Whitley did like this ride the second time but not so much the first time.

Huge wheel in the sky as Maleah calls it. No fear being so high up.

Maleah liked some rides and hated others. Some she just refused to go on. This one which is really high to me she just loved. Every time it circled around she waved and had a huge smile on her face.
Start of the DisneyJunior Live stage show. Waiting was always the hardest part.

Disney Junior Live on Stage. Both girls sat through this and liked all the characters.


Dinner at Downtown Disney right outside the park.

Jordan and Maleah with their balloon crowns. They were great friends and play mates while at the park.

Whitley loved her Tinker Bell balloon.
Train around the park. I should have used this more to get to and from the Baby center at the end of Main Street.
We had plenty of nap times.
Princesses Maleah and Whitley. On the storytelling bench.
At the fantasy faire by where they do story time. There are very few places she could get down and play but there was some extra space here and she enjoyed being about to move about.
Playing at Goofy's house. Maleah would and could play there for hours but we only let her play 30 minutes or so. Some of my favorite times were just watching her play and discover something new.

Giant Jack-o-lantern to fun to resist getting on top of.

Whitley enjoying the big water hose.
House of Blues dinner the last night. Joe and Maleah didn't really want any more pictures.
Some other things we enjoyed but didn't get pictures of was the Fireworks one night. I had a few of the kids playing with glowsticks I brought with us, but you can't really tell what they are all about. The fireworks as Joe puts it were better than any we have here. Maleah loved seeing Tinker Bell and Dumbo fly. They also have great music with it. The next night we saw the World of Color. I hurt my back that afternoon pushing the stroller or packing a girl around so I got to set on a nice bench, normally it is standing room only. That show was amazing doesn't even cover it. It is totally worth getting fast passes in the morning and going and getting a spot when you can. The girls also slept so good our whole trip which was a great blessing. Also the car made it down and back without any trouble, we even avoided a few crashes that I knew at the time was because we were being protected and had prayed for a safe and good trip.

We loved our trip to Disneyland. Maybe or maybe not the girls will remember it but I will sure remember for them. It was a magical time and the best vacation we have ever had. The smiles and the experience of the girls was so priceless.
