Fireworks and more from Disneyland



Happy Haunting everyone! So they are starting a new HalloweentTime Fireworks show, but the decided to practice it after the park had already closed. But we could see them from our hotel really well. So of course I grabbed my camera and headed to the balcony. I caught just the very end of it, but it was still really cool! Can't wait for the full show tomorrow night, with music and everything! It will great!

In other Disney news, the week has been very HOT!! Like in the upper 90's and 100's. It has made being at the park sort of hard. You have to plan where you are going very carefully. Ride first, then a show, or someplace to sit down, then another ride. The big hits have been Splash Mountain and Grizzly River Run. It is amazing how much easier it is to handle the high degree weather when you are soaking wet!! But we have managed to have a great time, despite the weather. We have hit all the rides we wanted, seen several shows, managed to watch fantasmic and the fireworks, hang out with family, gone shopping and ate at the CheeseCake Factory. It has been a really relaxing time. That is what is most important.

Me with the Villians, errr, some of them.

I just love Disneyland. Tomorrow is breakfast with Goofy at Goofy's Kitchen, then to the park. We might come back for a little break, but then we are closing the park down! They may have to drag us kicking and screaming, or maybe I will just have to bring the park back with me. I mean mom has alredy, you should see how much she bought today at the World Of Disney store. Dad is gonna pitch a fit, although a great deal of it is headed down to the new home of Doug and Angie in South Salem! Let's just say I know of two very adorable little girls who are gonna get a big kick out of their Disney Treasures. And at least one is going to be the cutest Minnie Mouse ever for Halloween!

Hope to see you all soon, and Congratulations are in order to my Brother Doug and his family on their new home, and to my cousin Annie and her husband Matthew who just welcomed their brand new baby girl, Liberty! Can't wait to get home and see you all!

Disneyland.....So Far

I know it has been a while since I updated the blog, but I have had a boring life for the most part. Well excpet dog shows, but those are probably boring to everyone but me! But this is most fun! I finally got my much desearved vacation at DISNEYLAND!! Yes those who know me well, know that I love all things Disney and pretty much only go to Disneyland for my vacations. One of these days though, I will make it to Disneyworld!

I got here Saturday morning and have been enjoying it ever since then. Only one small problem, it is stinking hot this week! Like 90's today! It wears you out a little faster. But so far with the help of my trusty hat and a gallon of sun block, no burns yet! I'll keep my fingers crossed for that! We all know I am nothing but white down to the core and that I burn like nothing else! In Sunblock I trust!!
So I am here with my mom, her friend Linda, my friend Danita, and on this day Danita's friend David joined us. We really had a great time, and David was a good sport with several of the pictures, as you will see! We did a lot in California Adventures this day, and then spent some time at Disneyland before the park closed. Later in the evening we met with my cousin Josh from Texas. Turns out he is here for a trade convention! It was so fun to hang with him in the evening and to get to see him again. Sadly I forgot my camera to take a picture with him. Oh well!
Hope you all enjoy the pictures! I am gonna get ready to go and head to the park now!!
