DISNEYLAND 2015

Disneyland truly is the happiest place on earth! Brooklyn has been Disney World twice but this was the first visit for both girls to Disneyland. Brooklyn is just old enough (we think) to really appreciate all the characters and attractions. I know she won't remember this trip but we always will. Brooklyn and Lydia's faces were just the best throughout the day. Everyone was happy, including Rob(!!) to be there. It really was just the perfect day. The biggest highlight for me was the Enchanted Tiki Room. Watching that show always makes me really feel like I'm on vacation. Brooklyn and Lydia were clapping and dancing along in their seats the entire time. Brooklyn's highlight was the Dumbo the flying elephant and the Casey Jr Circus train rides. Rob's highlight was that Brooklyn's favorite ride was one with him! Lydia's highlight was probably the pink cotton candy. We drove down from San Jose Thursday night and didn't get to the hotel until 2AM! Friday morning we slept in (hallelujah!) until 11AM, ate lunch and casually walked over to the park. We knew the girls wouldn't last all day and we only had to pay for two tickets (everyone is still under 3- score!) so rushing there wasn't an issue. We stayed until about 6PM and felt we had seen everything we wanted, without any meltdowns! Rob insisted we go on Its a Small World before we left. I was resistant because I thought the line would be wrong but to my surprise we walked on! The dancing dolls are so incredibility cute. It was the perfect ending to the perfect day.
