THE Only thing that got us out of bed on Thursday morning was knowing that Than would run around and get fast passes for us all day and ultimately make our day better and more fun and max out our rides. So we got up early and walked to the gates. We got there right at 8am when the crowd was let in.
We met the Hancock’s at the princess castle and met Aurora, Ariel and Cinderella.
There was no line for the Tea cups so we rode those 2 times. I was surprised how much Rose loved those spinny rides.
We rode the Small world boats. The Girls and Ray and Packer loved it.
From there we entered Toontown  and rode the roller coaster. Packer did not like it. Rose was sad she couldn’t ride. They played at a few of the houses and then we went to the Rapunzel theater. The girls were very Happy and waited to give Rapunzel a hug.
Boys stayed in Toontown and rode the Roger Rabbit and then the Boys went to space mountain.
We took a Pretzel break and the Girls rode space mountain. After that was what I call Bathroom Hour – everyone needed diapers and drinks and toilets and it took a good chunk of the afternoon to get everyone taken care of and ready to walk over to California Adventure.

Cali didn’t even need to sit with me – She’s only 4!

At California adventure Benji and I went on the Grizzly Rapid ride with Pacen and Than. Ben took the kids to bugs land and killed time. The Kids played in the water because Ray was asleep so they couldn’t ride with Ben. When Benji and I got back I took the kids on the lady bugs and balloons. Rose loved it again.

love that face!! this is the magic!

pure joy

and Benji’s priceless smile – or at least the one that made the price worth it.

We went to lunch with the Hancock’s over by the Muppet show. Chilled and then went to ride california screamin. Benji loved it.

screamin!

We stood in line one more time for toy story mania for over an hour but it is a FAvorite so it was worth it. Then we ran as fast add we could to Soarin over California to use or fast passes and we got on but then the ride broke: (

Toy Story Mania!

So around 6:00 we left cal adventure and went back to Disney. We went to the emporium and let all of the kids pick a toy. Cali picked Minnie mouse baby. Rose picked Rapunzel baby. Benji picked Pegasus baby. Packer found a bucket of toy story aliens. They are all obsessed with these toys. Honestly might be their favorite part of the trip. The Hancock’s also spoiled them with swords. Buzz guns. And an Ariel. And tons of food stuff.

Packer and his Aliens outside of Star Tours

That night we went on the jungle cruise with everybody in the dark and then we ran over to Star Tours one more time. Cali went and loved it. Pack and Benji to. Rose and Ray hated every time that Ben and I left together but they survived. We all survived! By 10pm we had done everything that we had come to do. We were done.
So we went across the street to IHOP and ate and chilled and enjoyed being with the Hancock’s and enjoyed the success of our 3 day disney trip. So much fun. Lets do it again in 3 years!

We LOVE Disney Land!
