Wednesday morning we got up and got ready, ate breakfast and then took off to get to Disneyland on time. We wanted to make sure that we got to the park on time so we could have the whole day to get on everything we wanted to. We were really hoping that it wouldnt be too crowded and our wishes came true. We were able to get on most rides in about 20 minutes. The longest we waited was probably 40 minutes for the Toy Story ride and Brandon took the boys on Peter Pan which is always a long wait. Other than that we got on rides pretty quickly which was great except that it made it a super crazy day. We were go go go until the end of the day. We had time to stop for lunch and grab some corn dogs and then we just ran from one line to the next. We didn't even stop to get dinner. We figured we would just grab dinner when we were heading home so we could get on all of the rides that we wanted to. It made for a super crazy day. We got a dole whip float at one point and a churro but that was about it and we didn't even have time to really eat any of the snacks we had brought because by the time we would even think of eating something we would be on the ride. It was great because we got to go on pretty much everything we wanted to but not very good for what we all ate that day. It was not a relaxing day at all. haha So much fun though and the kids had a blast!
Waiting to get on the tram. They moved the security lines to right before you get on the tram and so it looked like the park was going to be super busy from the get go. As soon as we were coming down the escalators to get to the tram there was a massive line. It made us all really nervous for how busy the day was going to be. Luckily it was just a little congestion and we got on the first tram to the park and the lines to get our tickets had like 1 person in it. So once we saw that we were a little more excited and relieved.
All of us were super excited to be on our first ride of DisneyLand, the Tram!! haha :-)
Emmett thought the Tram was so much fun!! His face of complete excitement made us super excited for how the day was going to go!!
We hit Cars Land first so we could go on the cars ride with Ethan and Wyatt. They were so excited to go on the cars ride especially since this was Wyatt's first time being able to go on the ride now that he was tall enough.
It was so much fun taking the boys on their first ride of the day!!! Seriously the best times with our boys!! Wyatt really liked the ride but got a little nervous when it was dark and there were loud sounds and then liked it when the ride went fast but you could tell he got some tummy butterflies and they were not fans of those feelings. Ethan really liked going on it again. After we got off we switched with Grandpa and GG and we took Emmett on a couple rides while they took Ethan and Wyatt on the cars ride one more time.
This cotton candy was given to Emmett by a lady standing in line behind us. While we were standing in line I forgot to grab our bag with all of our snacks in it and Emmett was obviously hungry. He was starring at the lady behind us who was eating cotton candy and held his hand out so he could get some. The lady asked us if he could have some and we told her yes he could. She was saying how she couldn't resist his little face. haha That's right work that baby face!! haha He was sure happy after getting some cotton candy from the nice lady!
Emmett was loving the ride we took him on and was laughing for most of it. Then the cars started spinning pretty fast he wasn't as much a fan of that. You could tell he was getting the butterfly feeling in his tummy and he is not a fan of that at all. He started to hold his breath and make little gaspy breaths. haha Silly kid!!
After those ride Tif and Q arrived and we met up with them. The boys were so excited to see their cousin Ryan!
We all rode on the Toy Story ride and Remy was asleep for almost the whole ride even with all the jerking around. Then at the very end he woke up and just looked at Tif and smiled, it was so cute!! He sure is a happy little guy!
Then of course the kids wanted to ride the carousel.
After that us adults hit California Screaming. It was fun to go on that one again. It had been quite a while for me since the last time we went to Disneyland I was pregnant with Emmett and couldn't go on it.
Our awesome faces!!! haha
We took the boys on Big Thunder Mountain and they LOVED it!!! It was fun being able to take them on all of these fun rides with them being older now! :-)
Emmett kept wanting to go on the horsie so I took him while Brandon took Ethan and Wyatt on Peter Pan. Emmett was supposed to be napping but his nap didn't last very long so I took him on the other carousel. He was so grumpy because he had not gotten a long nap so he was still tired. So when I was standing in line with him to get on the carousel he was being super impatient and kept screaming and crying and trying to get down so he could get on the ride. I had to keep telling him that we had to wait our turn. He was so upset with me and was so happy when we finally got on the ride.
The day just flew by and before we knew it the sun was going down. We were able to go on a ton of rides and all the boys were troopers with how busy it was. We had fun taking them on as many rides as we could.
Emmett got to drive for just a little bit on Autopia! Both Ethan and Wyatt got to drive their cars too and they LOVED it!!
The Finding Nemo ride was the last ride that we all went on together before Tif and Q headed home. Emmett kept saying, "Nemo!! Are you??" it was so stinking cute!! The boys really seemed to like the ride too. It was a cute ride.
Before calling it a night the boys wanted to hit Big Thunder Mountain again so we ran over there and my mom and dad took Emmett with them so we could go on the ride with the boys. We went on Big Thunder Mountain 2 times in a row with them and then went and found my mom. We were hoping to be able to go on Indiana Jones with the boys to end the day but as we got to the line we found out that the boys were not tall enough. So we had to go find my mom again and saw her run into the Tiki Room. So we headed into the Tiki room to watch the little show. I figured Emmett would like it because of all the birds that sing and holy cow was I right. He was spazzing out the whole time dancing and copying what the birds were doing. My mom almost couldn't keep a hold on him because of how much he was moving. haha Then when we left the room and were waiting for my dad you could hear the music outside and Emmett started dancing again. It was so.. cute!
Ethan was completely exhausted by the end of the night. He looked like he was going to fall asleep on the Tram ride back to the cars.
We were all tired from the long day and we still had to stop to eat some dinner. We were tired but also really hungry. The boys were out not very long after getting in the car. We stopped at Chick Fil A figuring that they would at least eat that. Brandon wanted to go through the drive threw but I figured they wouldn't eat anything if we just stayed in the car. So we got out of the car and had to wake them all up.
As you can tell they all were not very happy about being woken up to eat dinner. They could care less to eat, they just wanted to sleep! We had to force them to eat there food. Emmett was then all of a sudden super hyper and wanting to go play in the play place and not eat his food. He would scream when I didn't let him play. haha
I guess Emmett realized that even when you are tired you have to stop and smell the roses! :-) haha
After trying to get some food in them and not really succeeding that well we headed the rest of the way home. It took them a little longer to fall asleep after that but they did and then we just put them right into bed when we got home. It was a long day, but, it was so much fun and we made lots of good memories with our boys and with their Grandpa and GG.
