Every good trip to Disneyland need family pictures inside the front gate of Disneyland.  The kids all looked so cute in their Mickey/Minnie shirts from Grandma.  What a cute bunch of kids!

Disneyland was super busy.  We knew it would be with so many schools around the country having their Spring Break the same week as us.  We didn't let the crowds bother us and had lots of fun.  We got fast passes for the big rides and waited in line for the smaller ones.  My kids went on most of the rides that they could go on.  Josh still really loves Indiana Jones and did much better with Pirates this time, he even asked to go on it first thing and put his hands in the air on the drops.  It is so fun seeing your kids grow and figure out that the ride are not as scary as they thought.

The kids all did really good this day.  Allie got fussy and then fell asleep as I pushed her in the stroller.  I then sat down with her while she slept while everyone else went on dumbo.  While they were in line for Dumbo Sleeping Beauty came out and Megan got to see her.  Margie said she was super sweet with Megan and made a big deal about it being her birthday (Megan was wearing her Disney birthday pin).  I wished I would have seen it, but I am glad that Margie took pictures for me.

Josh is all ready for Dumbo to start!

Megan was so excited to ride Dumbo with Grandma.

After they went on Dumbo Allie started waking up so we all went on Small World.  Allie and Megan especially love that ride and loved looking at all the dolls.  I enjoy that ride too.  After that we watched the show the Magic Map.  It was super cute and the kids enjoyed it.  Allie really liked seeing Mickey in it.

After the show we tried to see Minnie but she wasn't there.  We went through her house hoping she'd be at the end but she wasn't.  We then didn't want to wait to see Mickey (it said like 45 minute wait).  So we let the kids go through Goofy's house and play in the little play area.  They all liked using up some of their energy "goofing" around.

We did the Autotopia ride and I got to go with Megan.  Tyler was now tall enough to drive so he took Josh with him.  Margie took Allie.  That ride is always fun.  We then decided to get fast passes for Buzz Lightyear and then eat dinner while we waited for our time to start.

After eating we shot us some "Z's" and defeated Zerg.  We're just that good.  We were all pretty tired after that and we were ready to go back to the hotel.  We finally made it back to the hotel and all zonked out from a very busy and fun day at Disneyland.

Allie and Tyler were good at posing for me to take pictures before we got into the Pirates ride.  A personal favorite of mine and many others.

We love the Jungle Cruise.  Everyone was so into the ride no one looked at me for a picture.  That's ok we had a great time seeing "the back side of water."

Me, Tyler, and Josh on Thunder Mountain with Amy and Matt in the back.  We all got to sit together and loved the ride.

We got all 7 kids in or on Dumbo.  Good times.
