The Happiest Place on Earth…

Spencer absolutely loved going to Disneyland. We were a little unsure how he would do at such a young age. We thought it was highly possible that he would be scared of the rides and frightened by the Disney characters but he is such a social little guy that he loved everything! He was enamored with so much constantly going on around him and got very excited whenever he spotted a character in costume. His favorite was meeting Mickey Mouse – he ran and gave him a big bear hug and as he walked away, looked back and blew Mickey a kiss. It was adorable! If you ask Spencer about Disneyland he tells you “Mickey hug me!”
With three full days we took our time and really enjoyed each moment. The crowds were a little thick on Saturday but thinned out tremendously on Sunday and Monday.
Day #1 – Daddy’s 31st Birthday
Cousin Addy, Aunt Marie, Aunt Sarah and a friend, Jen, joined us for the day.
Later that evening, Uncle Christian joined us and we had dinner together in Downtown Disney to celebrate Aaron’s birthday. They had great food!
Day #2 – We were on our own. We started off in Tomorrow-land with Buzz Lightyear astro blasters and ended up in Mickey’s Toon Town. Went back to our hotel for a nap and then stayed the rest of the evening to watch the firework show.
Spencer in his Mickey Ears – what a grin!
Day #3 – Aunt Marie, Cousin Addy and Uncle Christian joined us once again! We started off at the Tiki Room (they had never been!) and then took turns watching the kids so we could go on rides together as couples. It was a blast!
Disney does an amazing job decorating the park. I really enjoyed all the Fall pumpkins and colors…
