Disneyland October 30th - November 1st 2008

We were really excited to go to Disneyland, it had been two years and for our family, that is a really long time. I was most excited to watch Cashy there, because he is such a big Mickey fan. Grandma and Grandpa came with us and we are so glad that they did (even though it took a little twisting of Grandpa's arm to get him there). We spent Thursday at California Adventure Park and our very first stop was the Playhouse Disney show where all of Cashy's favorites were from TV. He had the same expression on his face as he does at home when he's watching TV. Cash really liked all the rides in California like the Monsters Inc. ride and The Bugs Life world.

I love all the Halloween decorations that are out.


Playhouse Disney




Our first ride of the trip, Monsters Inc.


Cashy Loved it!


Connor's surfer moves...




Our Grandma and Grandpa


Cashy the fire fighter!




One of Kenna's favorite rides...the carousel.

Grandma and I took Connor and Kenna on The Tower of Terror. Kenna sat next to me and bless her little heart for being so brave. I know she didn't really want to go on it because her little hand was shaking while we were waiting in line. She hated it and it took her a good ten minutes to calm down after the ride. She wasn't hysterical but she was quietly crying to herself.


Coco after Tower of Terror (don't let him fool you though, he was holding on to Grandma's arm for dear life!)


Kenna after Tower of Terror (isn't that so sad?).


I think this guy is from Pinocchio?


The next day we went to Disneyland and met Min and James there.
We had a great time together.

Yes! It's Mickey and Minnie, I was so excited for Cash to go and meet them;
I go to get him and this is what he is doing.

He had fallen asleep in the first ten minutes of arrival.


Kenna and Lillie




Mary Poppins and Burt




Johnny's favorite ride.




Taking a stroll in Toon Town, he thought he was by himself and so big.


Cash gave Mickey a big hug when we went in to see Mickey.


















We had a good time and plan to go back in a few weeks to see all of the Christmas decorations, we haven't been to Disneyland at Christmas time. Woohoo!

I am so jealous!! Looks like you guys had so much fun. How sad for Kenna, I'd probably react the same way :)

LOVE Disneyland and we will be there next week and looking at your pictures just put me in the mood. Paul's favorite ride is also Buzz Lightyear's and bless Kenna's heart, I won't even get on Tower of Terror! Going around the holidays is a blast, but I've also gone when you went and that is also so much fun. Glad you had a great time.

I too love Disneyland and I haven't been there all year and I'm not sure when I'll get to go again. Eric took Caylin on Tower of Terror last year and she surprisingly did well for a 4 year old. She always tells us that she does not want to ride that again. Love all the pictures!

We were thinking of going to Disneyland the few days after Christmas but sigh, decided to wait awhile. We haven't been in 3 years so I'm anxious to go back. It's wonderful at Christmas time - you'll love it!!
