A Day of Disney Firsts

What a wonderful trip to Disneyland we had. The only thing that could have made it better was if Zachary could have been there. It was an awesome fun filled 3 day trip. We spent every last possible minute at the park, came back to the hotel to crash and then did it all over again the next 2 days. So thankful that my parents could share in this time with us. I could not have done it without them. Pretty sure my girls wore them out but I am sure they will never forget it either.

Day one was filled with many first:

• Clara got her 1st visit pin
• Emily ate her first of many Mickey ice cream sandwiches
• Clara got her first pair of Mickey Ears
• We rode our first ride which also happened to be Clara's favorite (King Arthur's Carousel)
• We met our first character of the day (Pluto)
• Emily rode her first roller coaster and is hooked for life
• Clara met Pooh and fell in love

I was curious to see how Em would be with the characters because her last experience was not a good one. This time however she loved them. As long as they were not the mad guys she was happy to see them and get their autographs. I really wanted her to love roller coasters as much as her mom and dad and she absolutely loved them. Once she did her first one she was not that impressed with the rides in fantasy land. She just kept wanting to ride the fast ones. She loved thunder mountain, splash mountain but her favorite one of the whole trip was Goofy's flight school in Ca. adventure. I will save those pictures until the next post. My brave girl even went on Tower of Terror with me. It was not her favorite at all but I think if it wasn't so dark she may have enjoyed it more. I am so excited to have someone else to enjoy the roller coasters with. The day ended all to soon, as it always does at Disneyland but we had 2 more fun days ahead...
