Disneyland - Day 2

This morning we got up bright and early and drove a few blocks over to check in to the Grand Californian for the duration of our Disney stay. We dumped all of our luggage (and other crap) and we were off to Disneyland, and through the gates by 8:15. Wow, it's so SWEET to be in Disneyland during the holidays. All of the decorations, so beautiful. Austin and Ryleigh were very excited to go on rides, and we started with Buzz Lightyear and the Matterhorn (2 thumbs up from all riders). We continued on with our day, were given "dream fastpasses" by the dream team so that we could go on any ride without waiting in line. Austin got to steer the Mark Twain paddle boat around the River of the Americas (a REAL treat). He got to blow the horn and ring the bell numerous times. We had the best time. On to Pirates, and Winnie the Pooh and more. Austin got chosen to be in Jedi Training Academy and then we rode Autopia. We came back to the hotel for a little spin, and when we got back to the room, we were suprised with two HUGE plates of treats and two HUGE glasses of milk. It has us wondering how a baby that is only 4 months old got a hold of her mom's credit card to place an order (Thanks Kathleen!).















Enjoy the pictures!

OMG! You guys are having so much fun; I can hardly stand it! I can't believe how much you did on your first day. The Jedi Academy looks so awesome! And the magic kingdom is all decked out for the Holidays. How cool! (I'll have to start locking up my purse I guess from now on!) Hee hee....Go House of Mouse! Btw...are those bunkbeds I see in the room? COOL!

I'm actually heading to Disneyland tomorrow! I'm gonna keep my eyes peeled for you guys. And maybe work up enough courage to say "Hi" and hope you don't think I'm a freak. LOL.
