We started the day before the sun came up by leaving Arroyo Grande at 4am to drive down to Mickey's house. It was a hot day, lots of people and long lines.
In the below picture Connor is riding It's a Small World with me.
Connor and Ryan are 41 inches tall, so they can ride everything at Disneyland except Indiana Jones, which requires a height of 46 inches. The boys loved all the rides. The biggest complaint was Splash Mountain. They liked the ride, but Ryan (and Granny) got COMPLETELY SOAKED. Luckily I brought the boys a change of clothes.
In the above and below pictures, Chris, Ed and Ryan are riding Matterhorn.
On this trip to Disneyland, the boys absolutely loved the characters compared to last time when they were scared of them. Pluto was the first character we saw.
Connor, Ryan and I are riding Roger Rabbit. I am being goofy while the boys are just taking in all the sights.
Mickey Mouse! The boys had to give Mickey a big hug. But, boy, doesn't Mickey have a big head!
We actually got a picture of all of us together!
We weren't going to stand in line for pictures with Minnie Mouse, but Ryan started throwing a fit because he wanted to see Minnie. So, we waited in line....
We signed up for the Disneyland birthday party to celebrate the three birthday. Here we are waiting in line (yup, another line!) to go in to the party. Don't you like the pointy hats?
Connor and Ryan wouldn't wear their pointy hat. Maybe they were the smart ones?
The three birthday kids get to meet Mickey and Minnie Mouse.
Everyone got their own birthday cake to decorate for the birthday party. This is the "before" cake.
Connor and Ryan concentrated so hard on decorating their cakes.
We managed to get a family picture.
Connor and Ryan pooped out by 4pm and were begging to go home. Granny and Grandpa took them back to the hotel while Chris, Ed and I stayed at the park battling the lines and crowds. The castle was pretty lit up at night. We watched the fireworks show by circling the walk way in front of the castle to see the light show and fireworks. We didn't want to wait hours to get a good seat, so walking in front of the castle worked well. We kept getting yelled at to keep moving, but we could only walk as fast as the people in front of us, which wasn't very fast.
