Day 123. The Magic of Disney.

Seriously, what is it about this place that is so magical? I don’t care how old you are. There is nothing like Disneyland.

We had a fantastic day at the park. We arrived at 9:30 am. Emma and Shawn bailed out at 10 pm and my two older kids and I closed out the park at 12:30. It was an amazing day and I would expect nothing less.

Top eleven reasons why my day was completely fabulous.

1. Disney does everything in excess. I heart excess.

2. Where else can you ride on a boat at 11:30 at night through the mouth of a whale, under arches lined with twinkle lights, sailing by little towns of magical buildings? All the while listening to some of the sweetest fairytale music ever written.

3. The look of awe and complete wonderment in the eyes of all my children….even my 11 year old son.

4. My husband randomly busting out into “I’ve been dreaming of a true love’s kiss” at the top of his lungs, all day long. Embarrassing my children beyond belief and causing me to fall in love with him all over again.

5. Watching my five year old feel like a big girl because she was driving her very own car with her very own driver’s license.

6. The warp speed hip shaking hula girls at Small World.

7. Small world. Yeah, boring to some, but it mesmerizes me.

8. White chocolate rice krispy treats while watching the most amazing parade ever.

9. Standing on the backside of the castle watching fireworks surround us from all sides while Tinker Bell flies overhead. (Despite my somewhat substantial fear of heights, I want her J O B)

10. The seagulls on the buoy at Nemo’s Sub ride shouting “mine, mine, mine” every time we passed them.

11. I flew in an elephant, a pink one.

There are really so very many more….I could go on and on….

Hands down the best school field trip I’ve ever been on.

Now there are just 47 school days left until summer.
