Disneyland - again!!

We went to Disneyland again a couple of weeks ago!  We feel so darn lucky to have gone a few times this year!

We went during Halloweentime - so awesome to see everything decorated!
We also went to Mickey's Halloween Party and Trick-or-Treating, such fun!

Happiest family at the Happiest Place on Earth!

Maya loved all of the rides in Cars Land

Our little beauty

Maya loves seeing all of the Disney Characters!

Maya's most favorite character this time was Chewbacca!

We couldn't believe Maya was tall enough to ride some of the
'big-kid rides' like Splash Mountain!  And, although her face may
say otherwise, she loved it and kept asking to go again!

Another favorite Disney Character of  Maya's right now is Baily
from 'Finding Dory'.  She was all about the Baily stuffed animal!
And it's not a Disney trip without a yummy churro!

 We don't know when our next Disney trip will be, but we sure have lived it up so far this year!

Happy Holidays!

We had the BEST time celebrating Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years!  The best part of it is the extra time we get to spend together and with family!

Happy Halloween

Thanksgiving

Merry Christmas

Happy New Year

Halloween Time

We had the best Halloween!

We took a fun day trip to Gardner Village for Witches Night Out.

We had a FUN birthday party for Grandpa!
All of the grandkids dressed up, we carved pumpkins, played
games, and (of course) at cake and ice cream!

Halloween was a blast! Maya got to trick-or-treat at Daddy's work!
She walked the whole way and got a TON of candy!
After, it was so nice outside, Maya had to lay in the grass to eat some treats!

Happy Halloween!  We hope you had a fun Holiday too!

Happiest Place on Earth!

A few weeks ago, we took a little family trip to Disneyland!  Oh what fun we had!  We spent 6 days at the Happiest Place on Earth and we were ready to go back as soon as we got home! ;)  Here are some fun pics from our awesome trip.

We went during 'Halloween Time' - so fun to see it decorated!

In front of the castle. It was hotter than blazes the first couple of days. 

Maya - with her face painted.  So excited to have makeup, and especially glitter!

Maya's not too impressed - but we sure are! ;)

Maya had the time of her life!

Donald was so cute with Maya!

Maya got to pet Pluto and kiss Mickey's nose!

And we already can't wait to go back! ;)

Our whole world!

Waiting for our flight home.  We could have stayed forever!

We had so much fun on our trip!  It was so fun that it was hard to come back home!  It was a great way to spend our 4th wedding anniversary and celebrate our family!  Get ready for a picture overload!

Disneyland:

Maya was a great little traveler, the weather was perfect and we had a blast!

In front of Sleeping Beauty's Castle and at the Entrance to Disneyland. 

Me, Maya (as Tinkerbell), and Dumbo.

Us with the Walt & Mickey statue, and ToonTown

Our all-time favorite pic!  Makes me cry!
We hoped to find Princess Tiana and there she was the first day - they loved each other!

Disneyland was all decorated for Halloween!

Pluto and Maya loved each other!  He came over to her and got her attention,
she was so excited -- and he was so cute, let Maya grab is nose and face!

Maya got all dressed up for the Princess Lunch -- it was a riot!  Maya could spot the
Princesses across the room and complained until they got to her - then she was happy!

Shopping Fun!  You can't go to Disneyland and not shop your heart out in the great stores for all of the fun Disney items!

Of course we had to get Maya her first set of Disney ears!

California Adventure:

Maya was a good little napper - I think we wore her out good each day!

Cars Land was AWESOME!  Looks straight out of the movie!

I love our little family!

There were a lot of rides Maya could get on!  Maya thought she owned the place!

Our little Sleeping Beauty had no idea that Donald Duck came to say 'hi' to her. 

All-in-all it was a perfect trip!  We can't wait to start planning our next visit to Disneyland!
