Disneyland 2012

We had a great time on our vacation to Southern California. 

We had the special treat of having Jim's sister Liz come with us also. 

 She handled the chaos of our family quite well... probably even better than the parents :)

  Here are a few of the many pictures we took (in no particular order). 

 

 

Lizzie and pure happiness at the beach.

Lilly trying out for the next Star Wars movie.
  Actually she managed to fall in the water and get her clothes
all wet within 5 minutes of being at the beach.
  She did not like her wet clothes and so this is the solution we came up with.



Ethan playing chase with the waves.

Such a nice dad keeping Afton warm with his
 jacket on the whale watching tour.



Gorgeous view from our whale watching tour.



If I look a little pale..... me and whale watching tours are not very good friends. 

Back to dry land....... Winnie the Pooh ride with Afton

Afton and Lilly were so excited to meet Ariel. 
 Lilly had even brought specific shoes to change into if she met a princess. 

Disney wishes coming true..... a hug from your favorite princess!

Happiness at Disneyland!

Tinkerbell Faires!!! 
Also very popular at our house right now.

Liz squared. 
 Aunt Liz was Lizzie's riding partner for most of the rides.

Jack Skellington!!!!

Our Family right after the Tower of Terror ride. 
Afton and Lilly did really well with the "bigger" rides.
The only one they refused to go on 
(but were tall enough for) was Splash Mountain.
