DISNEYLAND!!

So while we were down in California we took Zach to Disneyland for the first time... we know he would either LOVE it or HATE it (he's fun like that) but it was hard to know ahead of time how he would actually like it... turns out he LOVED it!! :) And surprisingly enough he LOVED seeing the characters, he got the biggest smiles whenever we saw one, and would give them the biggest hugs and after the trip we would ask what he did at Disneyland and he would rattle off the list of everyone he saw. As for rides, they were pretty hit and miss. The first one we did was Pirates of the Caribbean and he really liked it until the part where you go through the fog where they have a video of Davey Jones projected onto it... he pretty much lost it after that and wanted off ASAP! Afterwards we tried the Winnie the Pooh ride, Pinocchio, and the Jungle Cruise. He was still a little leery during the Winnie the Pooh ride (it was the next one we went on after Pirates). He did really like the Jungle Cruise however, especially the Hippos and the Elephant's. It was such a fun day, and it was so fun to have my parents there with us to experience this "First" with him. I feel so sad they miss being there for a lot of those "firsts" being that we're a few states a part, so it meant a lot to have them there!!

(the pictures are all backwards in order & I ran out of the patience to re-arrange them all!)


waiting for the parade to start!
Zach's first pair of Mickey ears! (of course he picked the Lightning McQueen ones!)

he had the BIGGEST hug for Goofy, it was so cute!

Of course we had to get a family picture with Eeyore! :)

Zach was SO excited to see Eeyore, he ran right up to him!

right after we came out of the Pooh ride, Zach's poor eyes were still trying to adjust to the brightness outside!
