Olsen's take Disneyland: Disneyland

Nov 18, 2015

We spent two days at Disneyland. The first day was all about the rides. We tried to ride as many as we could. My favourite is Splash Mountain. We went home and had supper at the Condo and when we got back everyone was saving spots for the parade and fireworks. The really good spots were already saved so we found some decent one's and took turns saving our spot. There was still two hours before the parade. Disneyland at night is so magical. Beautiful lights everywhere. They had some of their Christmas decorations out too which made it even more beautiful. The parade was amazing, so good that I knew we had to see it again the next day. We only had standing room so we were pretty tired after the parade. The kids didn't want to stay for the fireworks so we left after the parade. It was so busy and chaotic trying to get out of the park with half the other people leaving at the same time. I never felt so happy to get out of Disneyland:)

I love that these boys are not too cool to hold hands with their parents and sisters




Dole Whip pineapple icecream is the yummiest






The second day in Disneyland started with a visit to the Frozen Boutique where the girls got their hair, nails, and make up done. H had chosen Elsa, and M Anna, but H's hair was too short and the Anna hairstyle would hold better so they both got Anna Coronation hair. They loved it and looked so cute. The boys went into the park while we were doing that.

Sisters are even better then Chocolate:)






After the girls were done we headed into the park to meet the boys. Today was a really relaxing day. We didn't have my in-laws in the park with us so we brought Hayley onto Splash Mountain. She enjoyed most of it, but the big drop pretty much terrified her and she did not want to go again. We grabbed a bench to save for the parade very early, like 5 hours early so one of us always had to be sitting on the bench. It was actually really nice to have a set meeting place and Ryan and I would just take turns going off and doing stuff with the kids. The girls were all about the Princess meet and greets, especially Hayley, so we spent most of the afternoon doing that. I took all the kids to the Frozen show. It was so well done and we laughed through the whole thing. Nate even enjoyed it a lot. I also went on Big Thunder mountain railroad ride, it was closed last time we were there, and I loved it. It was so stinkin fun. One of my new favourites. We had prime spots for the parade and enjoyed it even more the second time. Then we took the kids home and had supper. They stayed with Roy and Connie while Ryan and I went back for the fireworks. Sadly, they were cancelled due to high winds, which is exactly what happened to us last time we tried to catch the fireworks without the kids. I think we're jinxed.





Ha ha ha. This is my favourite.




Hayley is obsessed with make up now

I absolutely LOVE Disneyland. We had so much fun. Even more fun then last time. The time that we have as a family is totally worth every penny we spend. The memories we create and hold dearly. The friendships my kids build with one another. It is the best. We will definitely be going again and again, and again, and is something I'm looking forward to sharing with my grandkids one day too. We had the most amazing time.
