The park usually opens at 8am, so our passes allowed us to go in an hour early, and let me tell you- it made ALL the difference!!
We were in line at the entrance a quarter to 7 to make sure we were some of the first to get in the park! We stopped for a quick photo in front of Main St., USA- because there was no way I
wasn't going to get a picture there as a group.
As we were walking down Main Street, Corey said something along the lines of "hey look, there's my real twin"
I can't remember exactly what he said, but you get the idea. Well, immediately I think of his twin, AJ, and I was confused for a second till he pointed out who he was talking about.
The girl had the same color of red hair and was wearing matching clothes!! It was awesome!
I wanted to ask the girl if I could take a picture of her and Corey, but Corey didn't let me. I think he would've been embarrassed. Psh.
So immediately we went for Tomorrowland (not that we had much of a choice, there were only 2 parks open early and Tomorrowland was closest). We went for Space Mountain first because we all liked that ride a lot, and it's one of the rides that usually has crazy lines! We probably waited a total of 5 mins to get on! In fact, the walk up to the ride took the longest!
So, at the start of the ride, Tyler's like "let's salute during the entire ride!" and so I saluted with him at first, but as soon as it got dark, I figured he put his arm down...turns out he really saluted the entire time! hahhaha my boy's so silly!

This ride does not take the most flattering pictures....hehe Tyler looks like he got an eyebrow lift! and like I'm dead a little...
After Space Mountain, we ran around to as many rides as we could. Eventually we made it into Fantasyland- which was amazing!! At one point, I realized I felt the most excited in that part of Disneyland than anywhere else! (Probably because I'm still a little girl at heart).
Well, here goes with all the many pictures!
As a little girl, my absolute favorite movie was Alice in Wonderland! So I was so excited to go on this ride!!
Time for: TEACUPS!
I LOVE these pictures of Tyler and Corey!
I don't really like this picture of myself, it looks like I'm flexing....Cinderella wanted me to pose like her...didn't work...Corey looks great with Cinderella though! Tyler didn't care to have one with her. Party pooper.
By this point, [aboard the pirate ship] Tyler's feet were killing him, so he wanted to sit and not get up till the ride was over. So Corey and I checked out the ship while Tyler re cooperated. Poor tired boy!
Okay, so, I"m gonna be honest, some of these pictures might be out of order a bit, either that, or we ran amok throughout the different parks...which...now that I think about it...I'm pretty sure we did...
Storybook Land was adorable!!! Suddenly I was feeling urges that I haven't felt in YEARS! To play DOLLS! I wanted the boat to stop so I could take in all the little details! But snapping quick pictures was all I could do!
Notice Cinderella's pumpkin? So cute!!
Okay, during the ride, we came upon a duck hangin' out on an island! I love how I was able to get the little lamp post and tree into one of the pics- the duck looks like a giant!
Okay, at one point, while walking through Fantasyland, I discovered the Sleeping Beauty walk-through!! And clearly, I was excited! But for real, you know how most people would just contain their excitement and smile normally? Well, I didn't want to! How I look in these pictures is exactly how I felt! [I LOVE Sleeping Beauty!] But you'll notice after a few pictures I calmed down a bit!
Is it sad I wanted pictures with everything?
California Adventure!
We witnessed a proposal!!
Luckily, she said yes! That would've been so sad to see a rejection!...in Disneyland, especially!
We had the opportunity to see Aladdin in California Adventure's theater! It was way cute and fun!!
Though, Tyler would disagree...he fell asleep! [He was a tired boy!]
I wasn't able to take anymore pictures because it got dark and I was afraid we'd be kicked out for the "flash photography!"
Next up! The parade!!
I was SOOO excited for this!!
All during the parade, we shouted and waved at characters, and we got alot of them to look right at us!! Probably because they're not used to
adults being the ones shouting and waving!
Turk from Tarzan gave Tyler a high-five and fist bump!!
Louis the Alligator waved to us!
Peter Pan noticed me!!
This guy noticed me taking pictures! hahah
OHMYGOSH! Okay, so Mary Poppins and Bert were WAY close to us and so we were all shouting for them to look at us and wave, but only Bert heard, so he waved! And then I shouted "WHAT A STUD!!" and then he acted all flattered and it was so cute! [I think it's safe to say Bert and I "had a moment"] hahahah!
After the parade, we went back to our hotel room to eat dinner and change to prepare for World of color!
Whenever I give Tyler the camera he always gets over-excited and starts snapping pictures before I'm ready. So usually there will be a few pics of me preparing myself, then a few of me looking mad, then finally a normal one! ...except Tyler's finger got in the way of part of the flash :(
World of Color was so cool! It was pretty much clips from Disney movies, projected on a water/fountain show, with lots of lights and music! I LOVED it!
