Tons of Disneyland pics (finally)

Well I am finally getting around to posting pictures from our Disneyland trip. We went with my whole family for 5 days and we all had a blast. We spent every possible minute at both Disneyland and California Adventure. Because we were there from open to close everyday we were able to got on pretty much every ride and some more than once. There were even quite a few rides that the babies could go on, although Ella was not a big fan of them. She was content to watch the swarms of people from her stroller. We got to stay in one of the Disneyland Hotels so we were only a 5 minute walk to the parks and it was really nice. Thanks Mom for such an awesome family trip! Here are a lot of pictures, some are from our camera, and a few are from my sister's and brother's cameras.

The first day started really early, as our flight left around 7:00 am. This was Ella on the shuttle to the airport not quite ready to be awake.

Ella on her first plane ride ever. She actually did really well, and it helped that the flight was pretty empty so we had plenty of room.

Me, Ella, Amy, and my mom on the train ride.

We went to a dinner where all the princesses come to your table. Ella was still a little young for it, but it was fun to watch her meet them. Unfortunately I only got pictures of a couple of the princesses.

Ella with Cinderella.

Ella with Snow White.

My nephew Josh got to be in a Star Wars show. They get trained and then get to fight Darth Vader.

Ella and me with Minnie in Toon Town.

Ella with Daddy and Goofy.

My Mom and me with the boys.

My strong husband.

My very pregnant sister in law Lucy. She did awesome walking all day for 5 days straight.

Ella in the jail.

Us on a Bug's Life ride. Ella wasn't so sure about this ride.

We were on Space Mountain when something went wrong with the ride and the whole thing got shut down. All the lights came on and we had to get escorted out. This was a shot of all that. Fortunately it opened back up later and we were able to go on it twice.

Ella and Riley all cozy one night in the park. These two did great the whole trip.

This is what Ella did each day. She loved sitting forward in the stroller and watching everyone.

Playing in the water with Daddy.

We went to a Pluto breakfast and got to meet a lot more of the characters. By now Ella was used to them and she really loved them. I wish I could have gotten more pictures to show how excited she would get. This is the whole group.

Sam, Alex, and Josh.

Dustin with Goofy.

Grandma bought Ella this Winnie the Pooh in the park that she fell in love with. This is her with him the day we got home. She still holds him all the time.

FIVE days of Disneyland??? Sounds exhausting but it looks like you all had a great time!

I noticed you are wearing those Croc mary janes in some of the pics. I thought about getting some. Do you like them?
