Disneyland Vacation

Oh my lands! I don't know where to begin. Like, at all. We had so much fun, we saw so much, did so much...
So we left at o'darkthirtyearly in the morning. It was so sleepy out. Baby G was up at 4am and didn't really go down until 8:30pm. Oh my yes.

The kids were absolutely perfect travelers! I was amazed. I expected some whining or perhaps a meltdown provided by baby G. Nope, nada. They were just perfect.

They were all so cute on the plane. You could definitely tell they'd never flown before. Little G upon take off says, "Everything looks like toys!" and once landed and looking at all the palm trees Georgi says, "I didn't know they had palm trees in Alaska!" (we flew Alaska air...:) And on the cab ride to the hotel she tells the cabby (who's Middle Eastern), "Well in OUR country, we don't have palm trees." I love kids.
At 6:30am, it just doesn't get any more exciting.

 First stop, Disneyland (well maybe hotel, briefly). Favorite thing so far, the ducks.



 The kids' favorite cartoons are Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers. Needless to say, this was exciting.

 Baby G love Mickey Mouse.
 Mama's favorites.
 Celeb siting #2. Tom Bergeron. It was so exciting. Lyd has the video I must confiscate. Sshh...

 My favorite ride. The kids changed daily. Georgi is our brave one and will go on anything you let her (mama had to put her foot down a few times as daddy is a thrill seeker too), Gid would rather know exactly what it does and is before he commits. So occasionally needed a little encouragement. Baby G's favorite would probably be Small World.
 Pixy Hollow.
 Pirate ship that we rode on.
 My three. I happen to think they're awesome. There were no tears (out of normal, probably less actually), no complaining...They were great. We did a TON of walking and they trooped on through. You can tell I'm amazed. Blessed really.
 Late night eats. We did DL with my sis (her hubs and fam) and my little bro and sis. My other sis couldn't make it, and that was sad:(. We really had so much fun and we all get along well. It was just perfect. 'Cept the part where they got sick (then we got sick), but we love em anyhoo.
 Matchy matchy. They totally love each other, it's so sweet.
 Best in character had to be the MadHatter. Hilarious. Little G was too nervous to talk to him. 
 It was the perfect time of year to go. Weather was perfect and everything was decorated for Christmas. Absolutely gorgeous!




 Baby G's favorite character, Sully. He kept making doggy noises at him. So funny.
 Mr. Incredibles

 Sacked out. We were all jealous.


 Airport waiting...
 Kisses for Auntie
 The boys are sleeping.

So all told, the trip was amazing. We did CA Adventure and Disneyland. Multiple times. It was so fun. Everyone had a great time. I kept telling MacDaddy that I wish I could capture (picture) everything my eyes were seeing. It's all in the details folks, there's nothing that wasn't thought of. No garbage, no smoking, no shoving, I actually can't even recall hearing any foul language (not that there wasn't any!). The parks were just pristine. Sure there were lines, but you can work around that too...Then seeing all the Christmas decor and parades...I could go on. You really should just see for yourself, just don't wait 3 yrs like we did, unless it makes it that much better.
