Disneyland

A few weeks ago we took the kids to Disneyland. Rick had meetings in Anaheim and I didn't want to single mother it for 4 days. So we met him down there and hung out at the hotel.As we were standing in line at Disneyland a girl came up to us and offered us a free ticket. Cool! Then a few minutes later another lady offered us another free ticket. AWESOME! We paid nothing. We got there just in time for the parade.Liv was not a fan at first. The music is loud, the crowds are overwhelming. But then she started recognizing characters. She was enamored with the princesses and so excited when Cinderella blew her a kiss. She loves Cee-yella. When the Tinkerbell float came by she couldn't have been more excited. We walked along side it so she could see Tink-bell for a while. She waved and yelled "hi Tinkbell" as we walked.We went on a few rides. I haven't been on its a small world since my nephews were tiny. It's kind of a creepy ride, but little ones love it. Liv was adorable, staring and pointing. Even Tucker seemed to like it as he stared with his big eyes.We let Liv drag us around Toon Town and toured the houses and treehouses. And of course she had to climb in all the cars.We met Mickey. She wasn't thrilled. She loves Neckey, when he's on tv or her toys. But the real thing freaked her out. We watched the fireworks, rode the Nemo ride and bought Liv an overpriced, but incredibly loved, princess nightgown. It was a really fun trip. We saw a new side of Disneyland, through the eyes of our little girl, and it made it one of my favorite trips ever.
