Disneyland

Matty and Lexi love Mickey Mouse and we decided to to use the promotional offer at Disneyland and take them on their free birthday in 2009. We all had a great time. We started Saturday at California Adventure. We went to the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Show. It is the perfect little one show...fun, interactive, and you sit on the floor, so no falling. Lexi liked it...but Matty was in heaven. He kept turning around and would look at us with a huge grin. I am not sure I ever so him smile so big (what a great smile!) We went on a big Mickey Ferris Wheel and some kids rides in Bug's Life. We stayed for a little bit of the Light Parade, until Mickey appeared and then headed back to the hotel. We were all wiped out and ready to get a good night's rest for the new day.

We began Sunday having a nutritious breakfast and headed to the fabulous Disneyland. Matty and Lexi beamed as they hugged most of the characters. They wanted to go on rides, and especially head to the princess castle and took turns waiting in the line. we went to celebrate at a birthday party to decorate cakes and see Mickey and Minnie. We went on some rides and headed back to the hotel to rest and return later. We hung out at night and searched for Donald Duck, without any luck. On Monday, their birthday, we headed back...determined to find donald Duck and do some more fun things. We went to watch the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse show again. We found Donald, but were unable to take a pic because the lady decided to cut the line we were in waiting. I was really annoyed, but the kids were glad they found Donald...oh well.
We left the park at about 1:45 to head home because they were wiped out...in fact as soon as Jeff strolled them to the car they were asleep.
I am so glad they had a good time, chasing around 2 three year olds can be some work--but their happiness makes it all worth it.
