Day 2: Disneyland!!!

The next day we went to Disneyland and had a magical time. It was all of the kids first trip and we were able to meet Brian's whole family there and spend some time with them. In the interest of saving $ we decided to only go for one day, but at the end of the day we agree that if we could have done it over we would have bought 2 or 3 day passes. There is just SO much to do! We were so glad we had my mom there, she helped take care of Emmett and Henry when there were rides they weren't big enough for, and was a great help!




A man and his map: Its a beautiful thing.



























The end of the night.

I am totally bummed, because my favorite picture from the day seems to have been erased. (Henry has recently taken an interest in the camera, or as he calls it, "the cheese" and I think he must have erased it.) It was MaryEllen asleep in the stroller with Minnie Mouse standing next to her. She had wanted to see Minnie all day and couldn't find her. We had a stuffed autograph dog we had bought for the trip to get signed by characters, but as anyone who has been to Disneyland on a busy day knows, meeting a character means waiting in a very long line! Anyway, we were headed out the gate with only 2 autographs on MaryEllen's dog when I saw Minnie Mouse! I thought I would have her sign it as a surprise while ME slept, but of course, Minnie's escort told me she was just going on break. I told her my sob story and she said if I gave her the dog she would take it backstage and get all of the characterts to sign it!!! 10 minutes Later Minnie came back and hand delivered the dog COVERED IN AUTOGRAPHS! MaryEllen was so thrilled when she woke up and it totally made our day! I just wish I had the picture so MaryEllen can have that memory also!
