It had been a long, long time before we have gone on a family trip due to lots of medical issues these past 2 years. We started planning a trip to Disneyland 6 months ago and I just kept hoping and praying that all would work out for all of us to make it. AND the best news is, WE ALL MADE IT!
We had an awesome 3 days at Disneyland filled with lots of fun and adventure. It was great to spend some quality time together and so fun for the kids to be able to experience Disneyland with their cousins.
Here are some of my favorite memories from our trip:
Roman was so excited for the plane flight. We haven't flown with him for over a year. He immediately got in his seat (with his elephant) and put on his seat belt and just wanted to look out the window the entire time. My favorite quote from him, "Look Mom the clouds are in the ocean." Love his innocence.
We got to the hotel and all the kids wanted to do was go to the pool. Thank you Grammy and Papa for swimming with them.
These 4 rascals are just too much. They all wanted to take a bath together. Pretty hilarious and so sweet!
Roman's Mickey Mouse Ears. Balloon Artists are the BEST entertainment at restaurants.
My mom rented a scooter at the last minute and it was such a blessing. It gave her freedom and the energy to keep going. The kids loved it too!
Goofy and the boys
Minnie and the girls. Paisley was starstruck.
We've never been to Disneyland during Halloween, so I loved seeing all the decor. They do an amazing job making everything so festive.
The castle is always so magical.
My loves!
Always a favorite with my kids
Love this pic of Paisley and her Grammy
Scott is so adventureous. Love this pic with him and Uncle Jay's hands up.
Most random moment...meeting Aladin. He is in this random room and not a very popular attraction. We tried to keep in the giggles
Got in a few adult rides with Jay. Thank you to Grammy and Papa
for bringing the kids back to the hotel for naptime.
Kira LOVED the teacups. The faster the better.
It's A Small World with Blake
Cars Land is AWESOME!
Dinner at Flo's V-8 Cafe was great
Luigi's Tires
Bumper Bugs
Pop and Tyler are always a good team
These 2 are the best pals. So nice for the girls to have each other among all the other boys
One of my favorite rides, The Little Mermaid
Ice cream break in Toon Town
Mickey walked by and stopped to give Roman a kiss on his nose. He was in heaven
My kids favorite, Pluto
Tom Sawyer's Island is the coolest! The kids loved the treehouse
Winnie the Pooh
Small World
Roman's favorite ride, The Haunted Mansion (surprising)
Least favorite ride, The Jungle Cruise. It was the only ride he got scared on. Something happened at the end where the driver yelled as something jumped out of the water and he was freaked out. So happy that he enjoyed everything else.
Another favorite with our kids, Buzz's Astroblasters
We got front row seats to the parade. We loved it! SO magical
Until next time Disneyland.
We just love it here and can't wait to head back.
Going thru all these photos makes me want to book another trip soon.
THANK YOU Nana and Pop for the vacation.
It was so special and something we will remember forever.
