We made it to Disneyland after we took our family pictures. It was nice being able to see all the holiday decorations up, I love the castle at Christmas time! We did our usual rides and finally made it on Peter Pan for Claire's first time...
Buzz Lightyear
the Carousel
and Small World
(Cute little touch, they added a small statue of Elvis on the surfboard by Lilo and Stitch)
We went and had lunch at the Hungry Bear and watched the ducks and the boats go by.
So much easier than waiting in the 30+ minute line, she got her picture with Tigger... in the background
We watched the new show, Princess and the Frogand watched the Christmas Parade, Claire did really good waiting an hour for the parade to start. She ate some popcorn and chatted on the phone with family. We loved the Christmas parade, I videoed it so she could watch it once we got home.
We then went to find a spot to watch the firework show up close. Found a perfect spot but the bad news was that we still had 1 1/2 hours until the show started but just then they had this small 'show' where they lit up the castle (so pretty) Claire was then saying she was freezing and tired so I couldn't force her to stay so we started to make our way out of the park
We went to check out our brick and Claire laid down for a picture.
We took our pictures
by the California sign, well one of us and the rest of Claire. We love living so close to be able to make these small trips to California.
