A day at Disney

We decided that since my dad has "connections" at Disneyland and we love Disneyland at Christmastime it would be fun to go for Blake's 1st birthday and my 30th. It was me, Dan, Blake and Auntie Laura. We weren't sure what to expect but Blake did a great job. He had a lot of fun, even though he wasn't quite sure what was going on.




We were able to get on a bunch of rides... Dumbo, the carousel, Alice in Wonderland, and a bunch of the rides at California Adventure. Since we were there on a Monday the lines weren't really too bad (for Disneyland) and California Adventure was nearly empty! The weather was great too. Blake started with a long-sleeve T-shirt and pants on but very quickly ended up in a brand new Disney T-shirt because it was warm.


We were even able to see some of the characters and Blake did okay. He loves stuffed animals so at this age I figure he still thinks they are big teddy bears and isn't too scared - YET!

We had a great day and it made our drive home nice and quiet because Blake was so exhausted from all the excitement that he slept the entire way!!! We hope to be able to take him back again soon. I grew up at Disneyland practically and have many good memories there and hope to be able to take Blake as often as we can... while we still have such great "connections"!

what a fun trip! We want to take the kids to Disneyland a few times while we're living here, but we don't have connections like you so we probably won't be able to go as often, haha. ;)
