Abby spying on Princess Ariel. The line to meet the princesses was so long and slow, that I took her around the back to the exit while Brandon stayed in line with all the little girls.
Two little Mouseketeers on their way into the Magic Kingdom. Notice the banner says "Celebrate Today!" It was a command to celebrate and we obeyed.
On our shuttle ride from our car to the park. Abby was super jazzed and so were we. Taking a kid to Disneyland is awesome!
We stopped to smell the flowers.
Our hotel. We loved it. It was so modern (which is my thing lately). And, every time there is a free breakfast I fall in love with a hotel. Not like one stale donut and a box of Frosted Flakes breakfast...but like BREAKFAST. It happens to be my favorite meal of all times and I never leave myself enough time to eat anything but cereal. Oh, and don't worry, that shirt of Brandon's was left behind in the Hyatt's trash can. You can't tell from this picture, but it's basically a badly laundered belly shirt.
Carousel. This is the same ride that Brandon, when Abigail's age, broke free from his parents to ride for hours. His poor parents had lost him and he was playing cowboy.
Small World boats. Love it! It's so culturally sensitive!
The lovely (and I believe Hispanic with a spray-on tan) Princess Jasmine and Princess Abigail.
Princess Sleeping Beauty signing Abby's WAY over priced but COMPLETELY worth it autograph book.
This Snow White was a class act. She was completely believable and even got my super-shy daughter to say, "My name is Princess Abby and I have seen you on a movie."
We stayed from 9am-10pm. The last firework went off and literally half a minute later Abby fell into a coma. We got back to our hotel and declared that as an entire family we have never smelled so bad in all of our lives. We were ripe after a full 13 hours of sweaty, theme park fun!
The next day we hit up the LA Zoo! Thanks for the tip Chatwins!
This little girl loves the zoo!
I'm not a National Geographic photographer...but not bad, right? The animals at the LA Zoo are awesome. I thought I would spare you my incredible flamingo and rhino pics. You are welcome.
"Dad, why are giraffes so tall?" Best vacation ever! I know I just realized there is seemingly no pictures of me, but I promise! I was there! And I had a blast!

Seriously....where are you? Looks like a blast! I am so happy that Abby was able to be nose to nose with all of her princess compadres, I am sure she was in heaven!
ReplyDeleteYea, I'm so glad you had a good time! It looks like the weather was perfect.

ReplyDeleteThat is a fun age to go disneyland (I am talking Abby's age, not your age). I bet it was so magical for her and I am sure you had fun watching her enjoy everything so much.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had fun!
ReplyDeleteSo... are you saying you now lead a "charmed life"?
