This year was especially fun at Disneyland, for many reasons. One of which was now Drew is 4 he is at a perfect height to ride most all rides (excluding Indiana Jones & California Screamin'). It was SO nice not having to do a baby swap, and our entire family could go on the ride together.
We had such a fun day. We took it easy today and only spent 12 hours at the park. Tomorrow we'll go crazy. We got a 2-day hopper pass, so we went to both Disneyland and California Adventure. We spent most of the morning and night at Disneyland, but most of the day was spent at California Adventure.
Our Family at Disneyland
Our first ride of the day. Only a 20 minute wait!
Our family on the ride
Our family on the rideWe met some of our good friends, The Moore's at Disneyland. They were there the same days as us. We hooked up for a little while. Here my kids and two of theirs on Pirates of the Caribbean.
Waiting along the Rivers of America
One of our favorite rides The Haunted Mansion. Mostly because they changed it to The Nightmare Before Christmas. We loved the seasonal makeover. Haley and her friend, Carter went on the ride together. While waiting to get on the ride they were holding hands. So cute!
On Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (Sydney's Favorite)
Kristen & Haley on California Screamin'. It is a big roller coaster and it goes upside down. Last summer Haley chickened out, and she tried to this year, but we told her that she had to go because her best friend Caitlin went on it. Once the ride was over, she LOVED it and went on it a second time.

The kids on the Ferris wheel. It was a moving one, and they provided barf bags for queasy stomach's. I was getting sick to my stomach, but thankfully I didn't need it.
Sydney on Jumpin' Jellyfish
Jeff and Sydney on Mulholland Madness
Drew on Mulholland Madness. He loved all the turns. What a brave boy.
All of us on Soarin' over California. Everyone loved it, but Sydney was in one of her moods for the picture. Thankfully that changed once the ride started. The kids loved smelling the orange trees as we flew over it. Drew talked about it all day. He said, "I want to go on that ride and smell the oranges again."
