Disneyland is one of my favorite places ever! I don't know why I love it so much. It might be because I grew up living 20 minutes for there and always went when it was perfect weather, or when I was little and everything seamed like a fairy tale. It might be because when I was a teenager my brother worked there and we got to go on rides before they were open to the public, or my friends and I would see up and coming bands preforming in Tomorrow land or because we had our Grad-night there. Maybe it's because I worked in Downtown Disney and after work I could go on and couple of my favorite ride and go home. It also might be because Ethan and I went there a lot when we were dating and we stayed at one of the Disneyland Hotels on our honeymoon. We have a lot good memories at Disneyland and Ethan and I've been dreaming about the first time we take our kids there.
This year Disneyland is doing a promotion that you get in free on your birthday. My friend Rachel works there and she helped up get in and get some discounts! That was awesome!! Thanks so much! My parents came along to see Zac have fun and to help out with Tyson. That was so nice. Thanks Mom and Dad!! When we first got into the park we got Zac and Tyson Mickey Mouse hats with there names on them. Then Zac got to go on his first ride witch was the Buzz Lightyear. Zac didn't know what to think about it but he was so excited that he went on it again. All day long the lines were short so he got to go on several rides twice. Then we went on Autopia and Peter Pan. After that my friend Sarah met up with us and we had lunch. She brought her daughter with her and Zac had a ton of fun holding her hand. Then we went on the Carrousel, Dumbo, Pinocchio, and Mr. Toads wild ride. After that we went and found Mickey Mouse. Zac Loves Mickey Mouse, he watches all of the old cartoons on YouTube. Weeks before we went to Disneyland Ethan and I would tell him the he is going to see Mickey Mouse soon. Anyways, I think meeting him was the highlight of Zacs day. After that Ethan and I got to go on Big Thunder just the two of us. That was the highlight of my day because I felt like Ethan and I were dating again. We couldn't stop laughing on that ride. It was so much fun! Then we went on Pirates and Haunted Mansion. Zac was not scared at all, in fact he wanted to go on them again. The day was coming to a end so we went on a couple more rides again and went to dinner. We were so impressed in how well Zac and Tyson did. That whole day was amazing and the best birthday present ever!

I have a lot of great memories at Disneyland, too! We were so lucky to have only lived 20 minutes from there! I think it's even more fun now, as a parents. I love seeing my kids faces light up. Glad you had such a great day!
