First time @ Disneyland

Today was Audrey's first trip to Disneyland. Weren't quite sure how it would go, but since we have annual passes, there was no pressure to stay more than a couple of hours. We waited until an opportune day when we were all feeling healthy, she'd had a good night's sleep, etc.


In the parking lot, ready for blast-off

It simply could not have gone better. Thanks to Rodney Bissell (of Bissell DesignStudios), we had a 'toddler Disneyland gameplan' in place--thanks, Rod! Per his strategy, we headed straight to the Merry-go-round...


which was quite a hit


If you ask the three of us, the Storybook ride is 'just ok.' You gotta do it once, but it's not worth the wait. Still, we did have fun in line eating raisins.


Guess where Waldo is here?


The look on her face in 'it's a small world.' Priceless.


Candy Corn Acres....


Bug's life...







Mommy is clearly a dork; Audrey is too cool for bug-school.

BTW-not a ride we recommend for little kids. The signs did warn, but forgetting the level of entertainment that modern children crave, we thought it was probably exaggerated. Let's just say that although she did well, we cringed the entire time and her hearing will probably never be the same.

Ah! So sweet. She looks so stunned and in awe in Its a Small World. Priceless indeed!

Sarah's favorite was Small world too. Even though it was first ride of the day (and we stayed all day), it was the thing she talked about most. Can't wait to take her again - maybe we'll have to team up for that.

Fun stuff for the memory book to be sure!

Ah, cuteness! We may have to reconsider renweing our annual passes just to have the opportunity to go with you guys next time.....Kids have a way of making Disneyland so much more fun.
