california day three



























this day, we travelled to the magical world of disneyland. it was such a treat to experience the park with my children, as i have many fond memories of it from my childhood. it was a HOT day, with LOTS of people (we later discovered that the all star game was that night...in anaheim). we had a great day...and enjoyed fairly short lines, considering the overwhelming traffic! hampton enjoyed bibbity bobbity boutique, where she was transformed into the princess of her choice by her "fairy godmother." the transformation was completed with a sprinkling of fairy dust, before she was twirled around to see herself in the hidden mirror. a magical start to the day, followed by breakfast with minnie and friends (yes, for hampton...the boys were good sports). our first family ride was space mountain, during which hampton held on for dear life...screaming "save me daddy!" at the conclustion of the ride, she said, "that was sooo fun...let's do it again!" she later rode the matterhorn (which she enjoyed as well). after lunch, the boys ventured over to california adventure to enjoy a few more big boy rides. i stood in line with hampton to see mickey and minnie (again), and then in additional lines for a few more rides. although we planned on making a day of it...we exited the park with the boys at 6.30. we were completely and utterly exhausted.
