Disneyland!!

Mickey's Paradise Pier breakfast

In February we took our first major road trip as a family of 5. We went to Disneyland with Grandma and Grandpa. The kids had a great time. We first stayed at a house not too far from Disneyland. The first day there was raining. We met Mickey, Minnie, Daisy, Pluto and Stitch at the character breakfast. DT was the most excited. When he saw the first Disney character Daisy walk up to our table, he quickly ran up with a huge smile to give her a hug. After a couple of pictures, Junior mostly just wanted to eat his breakfast in piece. After breakfast we spent a couple of hours walking around downtown Disney. The highlight of that area is the huge Disney-themed Lego store.

We picked a great time with low crowds, so we were able to enjoy our favorite rides multiple times a day. Junior really loved the Goofy Sky School ride. DT was still too short for many of the rides, but he loved the Mater's tractor ride. He would raise his little arms over his head during the fast spinning parts. Junior actually rode Hyperspace Mountain with Grandpa. Afterwards he said, "It was scary, but not that scary."

Whee!!

Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa, Mommy and Daddy got to sneak away on their own to ride Hyperspace Mountain and Radiator Springs Racers.

Little HMC was too small to ride most of the attractions except for a few. He got special attention from a beautiful princess Cinderella so his trip was also a success.
