On March 4th, 2011, Disneyland proved to be a magical place! We have been waiting until the girls were old enough to enjoy the rides & entertainment and we thought it would be fun to plan the trip when Phil's parents were in town to join us.
As you can see, Ashlyn chose to wear her Snow White princess dress for most of the morning.
Above, here are the girls with Grammie Mary Ann, preparing for a fun day of adventure.
Ashlyn meeting Snow White was a precious moment. Believe it or not, I got tears in my eyes. It was beautiful watching my little girl's dreams come true as she got to see, talk with and hug Snow White. Plus, those Disneyland princesses are so skilled in knowing just what to say to make the experience special. It was a magical moment for sure!
Now on to the carousel...always a favorite for everyone
Jace had his first Disneyland photo posing with Daddy in front of the giant whale from the story of Pinocchio
The girls loved the Dumbo ride, especially Kailey. She just giggled the whole time.
Enjoying the tea cup ride with Grandpa
On our way into "It's a Small World"...mommy's favorite
Kailey's face was just precious as she tried to take it all in...so much to look at!
Both girls walked the entire park from 9:30am-5pm. They amazed us with their stamina, which was fueled by pure excitement! Time for a break and some yummy popsicles!
Ashlyn's favorite princess is Sleeping Beauty (whom she still refers to as Sleeping "Deauty" or however you want to spell that:) We could not go another step without meeting her. By then Ashlyn had taken off her Snow White dress and was conveniently wearing this pink dress to match Princess Aurora. Another very sweet moment!
Kailey finally took a short in the stroller, which gave her just enough energy to make it through the rest of the day. Here she is sleeping, with her hand still in the popcorn bag.
There was a fun playground at Toon Town that both girls really enjoyed. Here is Kailey with the cute Disneyland hat that Grammie bought her.
We stood in a long line to finally see Mickey Mouse, but what a fun treat it was to get our picture with him.
Hi Everybody! Just wanted to remind you that I'm here too and having a great time!
The girls holding up their new Minnie Mouse stuffed animals, still not quite ready to leave the park. What a wonderful day we had...an adventure for the memory books.
We hope to see you again soon Disneyland! Thanks for a fun time!
