Disneyland.. Day 2

We headed over to California Adventure for our second day. It had been about 13 years since I had been there.. so a lot had changed!

 We started off in "Bugs Land" where we watched "It's Tough to be a Bug 3D" movie. It was so fun and the kids loved it! The rest of this "land" is wonderful because the rides are all so kid friendly. 









 Our next stop was "Cars Land' or Radiator Springs.... it seriously looked just like the movie. You really felt as though you were in the the movie! We went and talked to Lightning McQueen about 20 times. Of course he is Brexton's "best friend". 
 Mator was fun to talk to!!

 So all of a sudden DJ pulls up and starts a dance party! It was so darling and the kids loved dancing...especially Maci!












 The cars just drive up and down the street. 

 This is our favorite ride! Radiator Springs Racers!! The pictures don't do it justice! It was seriously the best ride we had ever been on! Highly recommend it!!



 We went and saw "Disney Junior Live on Stage" it was such a cute show. They got to see Mickey Mouse Club house characters, Sophia the First characters, and Jake and the Never land Pirates characters.



 It was also Bart's 30th birthday on the 25th!!! It was so much fun to celebrate his birthday at Disneyland. We headed back over to Disneyland and ate at Cafe Orleans. I had a cake delivered to the restaurant also. The cake was delicious!!!




 I had the Monte Cristo Sandwhich and I know it looks different, but it was to dye for!

 We ended Bart's birthday with the show "World of Color". It was amazing, complete with all the Disney characters and even fire.. all with water!!

 Happy Birthday Bart! We love you!!

Disneyland!!

We went to Disneyland September 23-29. It was an amazing trip. We met some amazing people and families. The rides and entertainment were spectacular, and everything went perfect, we miss it!
 "I'm leaving on a jet plane". The kids had fun activities inside their backpacks, which kept them completely entertained on the plane ride.
 They also got a plush toy before we left. Brexton got Jake and Maci got a Cinderella one. 
  Long Beach is an open airport, which just means a lot of it is outside. It was gorgeous! I loved seeing the palm trees, it really felt like we were on vacation!
 Brexton liked pointing out the palm trees too! First time he has ever seen those!
 Already for bed! I still can't believe they fell asleep. They were overjoyed about Disneyland the next day.

 Finally, the first day had arrived!! 
 Waiting for the gates to open!
 Maci slept in the stroller everyday.
 The "Finding Nemo" ride was a favorite!



 We went on 'It's a small World" so many times!






 We also went on the Disneyland train a ton because of the....
 Dinosaurs!!! Brexton was thrilled that there were dinosaurs at Disneyland!



 "Pirates of the Caribbean" ride made Brexton a little nervous....
 but it was all good when he got to pick out a pirate sword!


 Autotopia was hilarious for Brexton! He got to drive and because of that gave Bart a headache....Perfect! It was so funny!!

 The 'Soundsational Parade" was spectacular!! The kids have a whole new appreciation for parades!






End of day one!!
