M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E

I was so excited for my girls to go to Disneyland. I was not disappointed they had so much fun. Kennidee loved taking pictures and looked at the characters as if to say "what is up with you"? Here is a sample of all of the things we did. McKell was just barely to short to ride most of the rides. We got to take her on Pirates of the Caribbean where she got really scared because of the drops in the dark. We rode it a few more times over the next few days and she liked it more and more. She would tell me to lift my arms. This ride was the perfect chance for Kenni to catch a cat nap which she did each time.
McKell and I rode on the matterhorn together and she yelled at me the whole time. Saying "Mom I told you I didn't want water" for any of you who have not been to Disneyland in a while the matterhorn has a waterfall that you don't go through but you can see and maybe gave us a few water droplets. I was just laughing because I told her we were not going to go by the water and I lied obviously.
We couldn't be in Disneyland without having at least one catasophre. We rode on Toy Story which is a really fun arcade shooting game that McKell really liked but the second time we rode it she wanted to ride with me and I rode with Kenni. BJ says that she cried the entire time and stood up because the lap bar only came up to his knees so he was holding on to her the rest of the game. He said that she started playing the game towards the end and was really mad when the ride was over because she hadn't been able to play the game. The ride operator came over to us and said that she needed to talk to McKell. I walked over with McKell and she said no just her. So I put McKell down and the lady says why are you crying sweetheart? McKell starts crying again and says I want my Mommy. She gave us a card for an immediate re ride. We went on the ride and I had McKell go tell the lady thank you. This woman told McKell not to cry at Disneyland anymore. We had so much fun on this ride and Buzz lightyear which was another shooting game. The adults and the kids alike loved thes games and TJ was always the high score.
McKell had so much fun getting the Characters autographs. When she saw a character she would yell "Mom my book". It was so much fun to see how excited she got. She is still talking about seeing all of the people.She loves Tinker or Tinkerbell to everyone else. So we waited in line for about 30 minutes to see Tinker. I was getting very impatient because that is a long time for a little kid to wait. They did such a good job of making up for our wait. The fairies got down to her level and had a conversation with her. I was so impressed.
This was the perfect ending McKell was zonked Kenni stole McKell's sucker and BJ well what can I say he was done! We had such a good time that we are already thinking of going next year with BJ's family.

It looks like you had such a fun time. I am glad you guys got to go. I have to say I love the picture of BJ at the end. I think every parent probably feels like that after.

I am so jealous! It looks like a fun time. I love the last picture. I know when we went, having our double stroller saved our lives. And btw, also so jealous you have a hook up for hotels! That's awesome!
