Disneyland 2014

We have been planning our first trip to Disneyland for months and it finally is here!! I'm going to break the post up by days because we have so many pictures. Mallie and Dallie flew in and spent a few days at our house before we headed over to LA. We drove in Wednesday night and enjoyed a yummy seafood dinner. When we came back to the hotel, I had left some gifts for the kids out on the couch. They were so excited and thought the fairies and Mickey had brought them gifts. It was so magical and awesome to watch how excited they were. They had new autograph books, character t-shirts and a Mickey and Minnie ears. They woke up to a new letter each day from a different character. I loved doing this and hope it added to the magic of their trip! 
 We had a character breakfast, Goofy's Kitchen, scheduled for Thursday morning. It was so perfect and a great way to start off our trip! Anna loved Minnie more than I ever imagined. She gave her so many hugs and kisses, then set off to find her again in the restaurant. 
Peeking in to see Goofy
Sooooo happy!!
 
David got to celebrate his birthday there. They sang to him and he got a cupcake treat for breakfast! He was so excited.
And then we headed to the park
On our first ride, Dumbo. Anna loves to ride rides. 
 
Anna was a trooper (most of the time) and got in her naps in the stroller so we could stay at the park. 
 David loved the teacups, too
 
Then, it was David's turn for a nap in the stroller
She got to meet her first princess this afternoon. This is what she had looked forward to for months!! 
 And we got to meet some more characters
 And Anna continued kissing characters...
The parade was the big hit of the day!! Presley was literally saying "Just breathe, Presley, just breathe" as she was watching the princesses and characters go by. They both loved the parade. Definitely the highlight of our day!
Watching Elsa come down the street.
 Presley waved at every single character coming by! Her hand had to be exhausted! David was hilarious - he would just barely wave to everyone who came by. It was so precious.
It was a great day!!!

What a wonderful trip! The kids are precious with the characters. I can't wait to see all their autographs. See you in a couple of weeks!
Love, love, love, love, love, ( One for each of you!)
