day one: welcome courtney and emily to the happiest place on earth.


A couple months ago we came up with the genius idea of going to Disneyland for Spring Break. We planned everything all out, and got in my baby car and were on our way. We had to drive ten hours straight to get there. But we had such a great time!


Living the dream.

Disneyland=lines.
  

So excited to be there!
 

Yay!



Hanging out on Main Street.
 


The first ride we went on was Space Mountain, one of Emily's favorites. It was all downhill from there.
 
 We spent some time in Toontown next, which is one of my favorite places in Disneyland. It's just so cute.

Their fire station. Hopefully this will never need to be used.

The waterfall from the boat.

So so many people. The first day was just crazy. You could hardly walk around. My dad would have freaked! Haha. Look at all the strollers!

Just us living our awesome lives.

Waiting to get on Indiana Jones. One of my favorite rides for sure. We fast passed it, which was sooo smart cause there was a 120 minute wait for it!!

We rode the Monorail so we could see everything that we wanted to do. But we did it all anyway.

Woody and Jessie were just chilling in Frontier Land.

And then we found the Animation Academy. We were obsessed. We learned to draw a ton of Disney characters. So fun!


And most importantly, we met Mickey!

=)


day two: screamin' and terror

Wednesday we spent most of the day in California Adventure. I had never been there before. And it was an awesome time. Emily made me go on all the scary rides and even some that neither of us wanted to ride. Haha.
The pier at California Adventure.

Old movie signs.

Us with the cars.

View from the ferris wheel.

The Golden Gate. They moved it temporarily.

The ferris wheel was frightening. And cold! And we didn't even sit in the scary gondola.

The worker at Tower of Terror decided to jump in. I thought this was literally the funniest thing.


Toy Story. Such a long line, so much fun.

Hollywood. Also relocated.
These little girls were so cute with their umbrellas. It rained so much that day. We had to go home early. Stupid weather.

=)

day three: last little bit of magic

Thursday was our last day. Time went by so fast! It was also our Magic Morning, but Starbucks took forever so we didn't get too much extra time. But we did get in line for Peter Pan, which always has crazy long lines. We tried to get in everything that we hadn't done yet, and have a great last day.
 
We rode the teacups. A classic. The only ride my sister would ride when we came to Disneyland when we were little.

It's a small world. Indeed.

Me and Emily. Waiting waiting waiting.

Emily!

Yikes. We're so funny.
 Our goal was to meet as many characters as we could so we went to the Fantasy Faire to meet the princesses.
Jasmine. She is sooo happy to be with us. Hahahah.

Belle. So pretty.

And ariel.

Then we saw the other three in a show. The little girls were loving it. And so were we.
 We went back to Toontown to visit the character houses. We had so much fun. We took pictures with almost everything in each house.
The Toontown Train.

We met Minnie at her house. Cutee.

Getting ready in Minnie's mirror.

Roses.

Such a cute kitchen.

Minnie's dishwasher.

These chickens were the coolest. Probably.

Disneyland is the best.

I traded my car in for this.

The city view.

Fireworks shop.

This is how I feel about people.

The churros in Disneyland are amazing. They are so delicious. Ahh.

Last night.

P90x didn't pay off.

Emily on her elephant ride.

Fantasmic was so sweet. It was a great ending to the trip.

All of the characters at the end of the show.

Right before we left the park, we ran into Pluto!
We were so depressed to leave. Sad.

Bye guys!
