Disneyland Decorated For The Holidays!

Katelyn has been asking to go back to Disneyland.  Mommy and Daddy decided to surprise the girls to a trip the morning of. Here is Katelyn's reaction when Mommy told her the news. She was extremely excited and it was sweet of her to want to share the news with her little sister!


Bella still flies free for one more month.  We lucked out and the plane was not full, so she got her own seat again.

Katelyn checked in at the kid's booth at the hotel.  She wrote her name, what city she was from and who her favorite Disney character was and had to draw a picture of the character.  She picked Jasmine.

Since it was the 60th anniversary, a picture with the sign was necessary.

It's been awhile since Mommy and Daddy have gone to Disneyland during the holidays.  They were both in awe of the beautiful Christmas decorations. The first ride we all went on was Small World which had stunning lights.

 Po Po accompanied us on the trip. It's always nice to have her around!

Throughout the trip, the girls stood in line to take pictures with different Disney characters like Tinker Bell.

Sophia, the princess.

Katelyn waited close to an hour for Mickey and Minnie.  Bella stayed in the stroller the whole time.  She was afraid of getting up close.   Majority of the trip, Bella did not want to sit in her stroller. Mommy got a good arm work out holding her.  She would want to walk, but it was crowded at times.

Bella was scared to take pictures with most of the Disney characters especially Olaf.  She much more preferred the stuff animal version.

However, she took a picture with Goofy even though she was skeptical.

Katelyn loved having breakfast with the princesses last year, so we decided to go again this year.  Bella was excited too and knew some of the names of the princesses.

Katelyn's face lighted up when she saw Jasmine.  The funny thing is, she has never seen the movie, Aladdin and only knows Jasmine from her books.

The girls of course had to see Anna and Elsa too.  It was nice this year, the girls didn't have to wait over an hour to see them.  Anna and Elsa now have their own house called the Royal Welcome.  The girls watched the Frozen Sing Along show as well.  Katelyn sang the songs at the top of her lungs.

The girls visited Olaf's Snow Fest  in California Adventures.  There was indoor sledding.  Bella was too young to go on a sled.  Katelyn loved it!

Even though the girls tend to fight over toys, they love being around each other.  They were making each other laugh in the hotel.

While the girls napped, Daddy checked out Star Wars Launh Bay and took a selfie with Yoda.

On the trip, Auntie Sum and Harper were at Disneyland at the same time.

Auntie Jill, Millie, Uncle Mike and Auntie Gail were there as well.  Everyone rode the Winnie Pooh ride together and got a group shot.

Bella's favorite rides were Dumbo and the Little Mermaid.

We watched the World of Color Show, fireworks and Christmas parade a few times on the trip.  Katelyn never got tired of it.   Disneyland is truly a magical place and we can't wait to come back!
