Disneyland for Emilie and Steve's birthdays!

What better way to celebrate birthdays than going to Disneyland? (Steve can think of many, but he was a good sport!) We had a great time this trip- all of the kids could ride almost all the rides (thank goodness Sebastian is so tall) and it made it so easy to get around). We stayed at the California Grand- and although the hotel isn't all that special, the location was killer. Was nice to wake up and walk downstairs and be a couple of feet away from California Adventure. We spent three days at the park- Emilie found her love of rollercoasters, Maddie thinks she is too old for them and Sebastian was right in the middle :) And of course, they are so burned out from Frozen, they refused to do anything related to Frozen except meet the princesses...these are our memories in no particular order :)


Smiles were very big from Sebi at Disneyland- he loved it. 


It just so happens our cousins were at Disneyland at the same time we were! It was hard to catch each other since our days were mismatched, but we managed to squeeze in a lunch before they left!



Silly faces in tomorrow land.




After some prodding, we went over to get some "Frozen" signatures.




Pirates is my favorite ride, and these guys were awesome... 




Sebi and mom rode Dumbo while the big kids went and did Thunder and Splash mountains.



The pool at the California Grand was a nice break from the crazy. And it was in January?! Awesome.





Character breakfast at the Disney hotel... mickey shaped waffles were a big hit.





I thought he would be scared, but he loved them!





The lines weren't that bad... we were still smiling!



Cars land was one of our favorites.


Toy Story...















The famous Dole Whip drink. It was good, not sure why it is so famous?!



Stroll'n down the street in California Adventure.



Super fun little slides for the kids.









The New Orleans restaurants were awesome... this lunch was probably about 10,000 calories, but definitely worth it once in your life!



A perfect birthday mickey for the perfect birthday girl!





The best ride.















A super cute shot.








The thrill seekers! (I wanted to go!!! But was pregnant :) )





I love Peter Pan, but sadly so does everyone else. This was the longest wait in the park?














We had an awesome breakfast in radiator springs.
















This ride freaks me out when the cage goes from one side to the next... ah!








The parades were awesome as always. The fireworks over the castle with Tinkerbell flying was seriously impressive. Even Steve almost shed a tear!!!


Thank you Disneyland for a great trip.
