Pictures from DISNEYLAND!!!!

Well our little two day excursion to Disneyland is over but we had enough fun to last for a long while!! We were really lucky to be able to go because of Jeremiah's conferences for work on Thursday. We got up bright and early on Wednesday and went right over to the park. With some cash that we've been saving from selling stuff on Craigslist over the last few months we purchased our tickets. Jeremiah purchased 2 day park hopper tickets for the children and I. He purchased a one day Disneyland only pass for himself, since he would not be joining us the next day due to the conference. The kids were a little because this meant they wouldn't be able to ride a lot of the fun rides at California Adventure because Julianna would not be able to go and with only one parent-ME-it was impossible. We made our way into the Magic Kingdom and went to Pirates of the Carribean first. I love the changes they've made! So great!! Next on to the Haunted Mansion...where we recieved a wonderful gift! As we walked through the front doors of the mansion we were quickly closed inside the doors and a lady appeared from out of nowher and said "CONGRATULATIONS! YOU'VE JUST ONE DREAM FASTPASSES THAT WILL GET YOU RIGHT UP TO THE FRONT OF THE LINE ON THE SPECIFIED RIDES! Woo HOO!! omg..... Well an added bonus was that this included California Adventure Rides and because we won these passes for the whole faamily Jeremiah now had a free pass to park hop, too!!!! Yay the kids got a chance to go on all the rides they wanted too...including the Tower of Terror (which all of them...even Elise rode...you can't get me near it!)













Poor Julianna got stung by a bee it was so sad. Interestingly she didn't cry though she just kept scratching it and scratching it. They put somee medicine on it and gave her a Snow White bandaid..she was very happy.



The next day was great...really it was...4 kids, one parent, running around disneyland...what could be more fun?? But really the day turned out fun. While Julianna took a nap the kids were able to do the little crown craft at the Disney Princess Faire. They provided the stickers and the crowns and the kids spent the next half hour decorating. It was a great little break for me. All in all the day was so much fun. We had a few little quarrels and such and for a minute I thought...this was the craziest idea we ever had. But really it was a fun experience and it made me feel empowered as a mom. If I can take 4 kids to California Adventure and Disneyland all by myself, I can do just about anything right?! LOL! Enjoy the pictures!
