Disneyland - Day 1.

We have lots to celebrate this July... Abue turned 50! Our baby cousin, Lia, graduated high school and is headed to the prestigious St. Olaf in Minnesota.

Naturally, a trip to Disneyland was in order!

Makani insisted that the first ride we go on should be Buzz Lightyear. Fast line, so why not?



I carried Ellie around in a Tula carrier. She was safe and snug while still able to see everything.



Yes, that's Lia with a Mickey/Perry hat.



So excited to see Buzz!



Very serious work.



When you attempt Disneyland with two young kids, I'd assume that you generally look for rides with the shortest lines. That was our strategy and it worked really well.

Small world was next. Huge plus that it was air conditioned inside!



Ellie fell asleep. Disney is sooo relaxing when you're being carried by your mami.



Boys in wonder.



Kind of hard NOT to wake up when you hear loud music playing. This girl didn't cry once!



So happy.



Family photo attempt...



And again... Fail?



Brad took a turn in carrying Ellie with the Tula.. On his back!



Lunch was followed by Mickey shaped beignets! They were delicious!



After a failed attempt at naptime in the hotel room, we went straight back for more Disney fun.



Carousel ride!



That really ended up being all the Disney we could handle on day one. Had some lovely dinner, then back to the hotel for some quiet R&R so we could be ready for day two!

Much love,
The Dolfos.
