Disneyland

The magic of Disney descended upon us! We went to Disneyland and fell in love with every square inch of the place. The boys made it fun, and seeing the joy, excitement and anticipation in every turn was priceless. It was even more special that we had this chance to share it with Emile's parents. I will take you on my tour of it... enjoy...

We actually started out at Santa Monica Pier. It was such a beautiful day, and the boys witnessing the rollercoaster was almost unbearable since they thought the pier WAS Disneyland. They had no idea how much fun really lie ahead...

We went star searching in Beverly Hills, Bel-Air, and Hollywood.
We did find a street that seemed pretty special to us.

Then we excitedly woke up to this...

family

flying Pirate ships...

silly hats...

trains...

smiles...
delicious corn dogs...

Roller coasters...

storm troopers...

long lines....

Storybook fantasy rides...

Mickey Mouse..

More rides...

Donald Duck...

Captain Hook...

Minnie..

Treasure hunts...

Flying Rides... (notice Emile with his arms out?)

Flying high....

Love that is real and exciting...

Aching back and feet... with a side of smiles....

Star Tours.. and the nausea that follows...

Jedi Training...

Darth Maul...

(Notice Simon using the force to be chosen... the force was weak with him that day)

At the end of it all... We will remember being together, laughing, eating,
screaming, and crashing at night from exhaustion.
We will definitely come back!
