Crazy Creps Clan: Disneyland 2013

ok sorry but i need to catch up a bit... ha ha so i will have posts from some important memories through out the year!!

So to start will be our trip to Disneyland in September.

It was an amazing trip we went with just the 4 of us and then Grandma Susan and Grandpa Bill and Kate flew in for a couple days to join us. We were gone from the September 27 through October 2 and did a 4 day Disneyland pass.

Friday- We left super early in the morning because we drove and wanted to make the trip easy, but when we go to Vegas and realized we were going to arrive in Anaheim about 4 hours before we could even check in we decided we should take a detour up to Bakersfield and visit with my grandparents for a bit. It was really nice to visit with them since they never met Brad before then. We stayed for only about 3 hours and it was nice to get out of the car for a while and let the kids run around. We left there house around 5:00p.m. and realized we were going to be driving through downtown LA during rush hour on a Friday night. We were really nervous about it but we got super lucky and didnt hit any worse traffic then what there normally would be! We reached our hotel about 8:30 that night and man were we happy to go to bed and get out of the car.

Here is a picture of the kids with my Grandparents, their Great Grandparents

Saturday- We got up early and headed to Disneyland. Now Disneyland added this amazing land called "fantasy faire" It was every little girls dream it was nothing but princesses and play and princess shops. They had one area where you waited in a line and then once you got inside the "princesses area" you were able to meet 3 princess with one on one time. It was AMAZING!! we were able to see Ariel, Cinderella, and Aurora. Then they have a theater and do two different kind of play they do Rapunzel and Beauty and the beast and they do just little plays and then you can visit with the princess afterwards... We were able to see Rapunzels play and both kids loved it. We also watched the "soundsational parade" (we saw it 3 different times while we were there). We also just spent a lot of time visiting with Characters and riding small rides.

Anna got to see Belle mind you we had to wait in the

hot sun for about 45 mins eating our lunch in line so we could

be the very first to see her but it was so worth it. Anna just

couldn't stop screaming she was so excited!!

Buzz lightyear ride!! Brad loved it

Anna wanted a picture with the Pink Castle

so back story Merida could only be out for like 20 min

then she would go back to get a drink and cool off

well we were the last ones to see her and she held annas

hand and anna got to walk with her all the way to were she

get a drink. it was so amazing!! definitely something

we will never forget!!

Riley also had to leave me early that night so he could go pick up Susan, Bill and Kate from the airport but one thing we didn't realize is he took the hotel keys and left me to get on the bus to the hotel with both kids a stroller and all the stuff. It was great!!

Sunday- We were able to take Anna on big ride because we were switching off with Brad between susan and bill. So we spent the day riding big rides, eating, seeing characters and then watched the fireworks.

Monday- we went over to California Adventures. once again we rode the rides and watched shows. We were able to get a fast pass for the the new Cars ride. Anna and Kate loved it and were able to ride it twice. We tried to watch the World of Color with them but it was supper crowded and people kept standing up and putting kids on there shoulders and made it really impossible to see it at all, next time we go we decided we will get a fast pass for that.

Tuesday- our last day. Riley also had to take them back to the airport so they could go home. while he was gone i got up with the kids and got ready for the day. We went back to Disneyland and saw Characters that we had missed and rode rides we weren't able to get on when it was busy and just had a really relaxed day it was super nice and 4 days was perfect for us. We did decide its not worth it to do a park Hopper and just do one park a day pass because with two kids and all there junk you really don't want to travel between parks.
