5 glorious days at the Happiest Place on Earth!!! Yeah, we're Disneyland F-R-E-A-K-S!!! So if you really know us, you already know that little tidbit of information. Going to Disneyland on Tuesday's and Wednesday's are the BEST. No crowds at all. I think the longest we had to wait in line for a ride was 15 minutes and that was for Space Mountain or Indian Jones. It's GREAT!!! Thursday more people showed up but it was manageable. Friday and Saturday was N.U.T.S!!!!! Very crowded but we still had fun.
It is a tradition (ever since Amy's been a kid) to start your first Disneyland Day on the Jungle Cruise.
"Aw, look at those sweet lions watching over that zebra. He's dead tired."
And we get to see the 8th wonder of the world
The Backside of Water!!
Here's what happens when you go down this drop!
You get wet!!
Awesome entertainment through the park:
The Trash Can Band
Very "stomp" like. They were our favorite!
The Pirate Band
The New Orleans Square Jazz Band
LOVE this pic of Rob & Amber
This was our matchy, matchy, dress like a tourist day.
Oh dear!!
King Arthur's Carousel
Oh yeah!!! The front is the BEST place to ride!
Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters
Tea Cups!
Proof! Amy went on the tea cups. Rob, my engineering husband, made sure the cup faced in the same direction the entire time. I'm sure people thought we were strange!
California Adventure
Rob, David & Mason Loveland
Grizzly River Rapids ~ a ride that Amy just "holds the purses" or she'll get sick.
Our Hats!
Rob bought a shirt instead of a hat.
The BEST breakfast in Disneyland ~ The Carnation Cafe
Classic!
Me & Rob on the Disneyland Railroad
On Saturday our dear friends, Bob & Cathy Conway joined us for some fun. Cathy and Amy have been friends since their Sophmore year in high school.
David, Seth (Amy's brother), Bob & Rob
The REAL reason for our trip!
While we were waiting for the fireworks show on Saturday night, we were able to witness the sweetest thing. A wedding proposal!! Right in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle. With the help of Disneyland Cast members it was a surprise as well as successful! She said YES!!! Of course all of us nearby cheered!
And our vacation ended with a bang on Sunday. I'll fill you in tomorrow!

I swear are you always at DisneyLand? that is awesome I love the rides cool that your whole family goes on them :)
LOVE your pics!! Looks like so much fun! I haven't been in over 20 years! need to take the kiddo! Thanks for sharing!
I especially love the announcement about Lynden's band. Awesome. The Disney pictures just make my feet tired looking at them. It's been too recent! :) I may need a wheelchair if I ever go again!
You got some great pix! We had so much fun! I love the picture of David w/ his hat. :) I hope we can do it all again soon!
How fun!! Have you guys been to Disneyworld yet? I used to love Disneyland but now that I've worked at Disneyworld, that's the place I want to vacation ALL THE TIME. Well, it looks like you guys had fun!! And cute hat :)
You ACTUALLY went on teacups!!!!! WOW! You all look cute in your shorts and hats. :)
On a business trip to Florida, Rob went to the Magic Kingdom for a day. He said it just didn't feel "right". Some slight diffences that made things odd since we grew up with the West Coast Disney. We want to go and see the rest that Disneylworld has to offer. Looks like fun!
It's funny you start your vacation on the jungle cruise b/c Hunter will never go on that ride ever again. He cried the whole ride :)
