Over the last year or so, Heather and I have basically become Disneyland buddies.  Once in awhile we get together outside of Disneyland too, but we definitely look forward to every trip there.  So I was so glad when on her birthday, she decided that’s where she’d like to be.  It was too hot and a little more crowded than we like, but as always, it was a fun day.  Thanks for letting me spend your “21st Birthday” with you!  ;)

Love,

Anyone who knows me (or follows my blog) already knows that I’m crazy about a few things:  My cat, my nephew and Disneyland.  Well combine two of the three and you have one of the best days ever.  My amazing sister just finished school with her Master’s Degree in finance (!!) and her graduation gift from my Mom was a trip to California with the family.  And of course the highlight of the trip was Disneyland.  Especially now that my nephew is getting a little older and kind of gets it?  Oh brother, it was so fun!  I thought these would be easy to edit and narrow down, but I had such a hard time!  I guess I’m kind of partial to the cuteness that is this kid…

Arriving at the park and riding the tram – high fives of excitement!

Waiting anxiously for the “choo-choo train“… Just being a cutie…These are probably my favorite pictures of the whole day – his first time on a roller coaster.  Oh man, it was so super funny.  It’s a kids’ coaster (the Gadget Go-Coaster) and he didn’t cry or anything, so it’s not like we were torturing him.  But his little face as we hit that first little hill was just too much!  

Teacups of course! Dumbo is one of the favorites, for sure.

We rode “Horsie-Go-Up-And-Down” twice:

Pirates of the Caribbean was a little scary, but he was still a trooper. He’s trying to look happy and cool, although he didn’t want to open his eyes.  Haha.  Eventually he warmed up and started waving hello to all the pirates.

Here are just a few more of everyone having fun, throughout the day… Can you see why it was the best day?  Love you guys!

Love,

I definitely think the Disneyland Annual Passport was a worthwhile investment – especially on days like this.  I was invited to spend the day with these sweet boys & family at Disneyland/California Adventure.  You may remember them from a beach shoot we did a few months ago.

What a great day!  Not only are the kids adorable, but the weather was awesome, the lines were short, and the snacks were plentiful.  The perfect type of Disney Day.  Thanks for letting me tag along and take pictures of you guys!

Love,
