Disney Vacation Part 1

I cannot even tell you how much FUN we had!! My kids were so excited just to fly on an airplane, that we could have flown there and turned around and just have come home. We got to the airport in plenty of time, not knowing how long it would take us to get checked in with all our luggage and with 4 kids. So once we got to the gate we had 2 hours to spare. We took our laptop to watch movies at the gate and the kids also played games on mine and Richs phones.
Brylee did so good, I was so proud of her. She just played and was so happy at the airport. She found this cute puppy by us, and she is fascinated by animals. She just loved him and crawled after him on the ground.
The kids did so great on the plane, the stewardess even commented that Brylee was so well behaved. She didn't fuss or anything. The kids loved looking out the windows at the clouds and seeing the tiny towns! The flight was about 1 and a half hours. It went a lot more smoothly than I had hoped.
We got to Disneyland Tuesday afternoon, and the first ride Rich decides to take the kids on is the Matterhorn. All 3 come off of it crying. Awesome. So we went to look for something a little more low key. We spent the rest of the evening going on little rides that we could all go on.

On our way out of the park we found Mickey Mouse!! The kids were so excited to see him, especially on the first night. We headed back to the hotel (it had been a VERY long day.) Our hotel was perfect for us. We had a room with 2 queen beds and then a separate room with bunk beds and their own TV and table. It was perfect. The kids liked having their own space and watching the shows that they wanted to watch.
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
We found Pluto in Toon Town, the characters there are amazing. They all take time for each of the kids and interact with them. They will sign autograph books and pose for pictures until moms are satisfied!!


This is in Mickey Mouses house.
Another one with Mickey!
