On August 31st after Rick got off work, we loaded the kids in the car and headed south. We met my Mom and Merrie at the plaza hotel in Anaheim. We got in pretty late so we went right to bed. We had a pretty rough night Lilly has a hard time sleeping anywhere that isn't her crib, and rick snores pretty loud. I think the only person that got a good nights rest that night was Matthew (he sleeps like a log.) The next morning we loaded up and headed over to Disneyland.
We bought Lilly her first set of ears...she didn't like them.
Much happier!!
Matthew was so excited to be at Disneyland! He's been a few times before, but this time he was really excited. Every time we got in our car for two weeks before our trip Matthew asked if we were going to Disneyland. So he was super excited to finally be there!
I can't wait till Lilly is old enough to have an appointment at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique!
Our first ride of the day!! The Carousel!
Merrie had to have and wear this Cinderella tutu. lol
Matthew was so proud that he could ride all by himself!
Rick likes to "picture bomb" at Disneyland.

Ready to spin!
These pictures were taken while spinning in our cup!
This is what everything outside the cup looked like!
Lilly did so well all day she didn't get cranky she did great while waiting in lines and here she is still happy at the end of the day!
Waiting for the firework show to start. Matthew got a star wars gun and was trying to shoot everyone. Matthew loved the firework show!! It was priceless to sit there next to him and watch the excitement on his face as the fireworks went off! As soon as Lilly got used to the loud noise she enjoyed the firework show too!
By the time we walked down main street and exited the park both kids were asleep! We had such a great time!! The lines were short it wasn't too crowded and the weather was wonderful! We got to spend some time with my aunt, uncle, cousin and her family who were down from Utah to go to Disneyland! And we got to take my aunt home with us!!! It was so fun to spend all day together at the Happiest Place on Earth!!
