Fall Break Disneyland Trip - Day 2

We were up bright and early for our big magical day. We were one of the first cars parked and we headed on the tram to Downtown Disney for some breakfast and to meet up with Logan's teacher who was also at the park for a couple of days. We met Grammy and started the day in California Adventure. We went on the new Marvel Guardian's of the Galaxy which the boys loved. Then we headed to Mater's, Cars Racers, then over to Paradise Pier to ride Screamin' twice. We also did Toy Story Mania and Ariel's before eating lunch at the Wharf. After lunch and some shopping in DCA, we headed across the way to meet up with Lisa's family in Disneyland. Thanks to Grammy running fast passes for us, we hit all of the big rides in a very crowded park. We went on the train, Pirates, Tarzan's Treehouse, Haunted Mansion, Indy, Buzz Lightyear, Space Mountain, Nemo, Matterhorn and Autopia. We also got to see the parade as well. Considering we were trying to make a party of ten happy, in a very crowded park, running on little sleep, I think we had an amazing day and tons of fun. The kids all got along very well, the weather was nice and we accomplished a lot. We crashed that the hotel that night and left to head home after breakfast the next morning. We stopped to lunch at In-N-Out in Rio Mirage because Shannon had never had In-N-Out before. I would say the kids had a great time and we wore them out because they slept for most of the ride home. It was the first time the kids have been in Disneyland with friends. So fun!

Logan's 2nd grade school teacher, Ms. Way. She used to be a Cast Member in Disneyland prior to teaching this year.

Shannon was a trooper and took Logan on the swings with her.

The boys sweatshirts fit in nicely with all of the Halloween decor. 

Sadie's first time on Indiana Jones.

I love these pictures of Logan and Sadie. All on his own, Logan told Sadie that they were going to be a team. He focused on moving them around to get Sadie to face all of the targets and her job was to focus on shooting. It was absolutely heart melting adorable.

All the kids after dinner and Rancho Del Zocalo in Frontierland.

Logan and I got to ride Autopia together because Lincoln went with Shannon. I pushed the peddle and Logan steered. He is such a clown and is so animated. I loved going around this track with him. He cracks me up. I don't think I will be able to handle teaching him to drive in real life though. That terrifies me!

Sadie and Lisa were behind our car. 

Grammy took Logan on Matterhorn. The other kids waited in lined and went on the other side of the track. 

At the end of the night the kids were wiped out. We had opened the park at 8;00 am (been up since 6:00 am) and closed the park at midnight (although we got home about 12:30 am. They all managed to squeeze out a smile for the camera though. 

My precious boys at the end of the night. 

Driving home the next day.
