Ellie's 4th Birthday at Disneyland!

We had such a fun Birthday weekend with Ellie!  We celebrated the day before we left at home with a special birthday dinner, cupcakes, and presents.  I don't think this Birthday can be topped!  This was one happy birthday girl.  We had such a wonderful time at Disneyland and I had a REALLY hard time narrowing down which pictures to post.


My little baking helper wanted to help frost the
cupcakes!


Frozen inspired theme for our little party at home.
I had to improvise since Frozen anything is hard to come by.






Happy Birthday Ellie!

We got up early eager to get to Disneyland and made it to Anaheim with time to spare before our appointment at the Bibbity Boppity Boutique...
Little Cinderella is ready for her make-over!

Just through the castle gate!

Princess Ellie was called back!















Now presenting Princess Ellie!

Princess Ellie was given a Birthday sash and all the characters we would see throughout the park made a big to do bowing to her and telling her Happy Birthday.  They sure know how to make a kid feel special!  We got to see LOTS of princesses.  Jack was quite the flirt and they loved him too!
Jack really like Rapunzel, he didn't want to part ways.

The kiddos talked Mulan's ear off.

Sleeping Beauty was next.

Jasmine was a lot of fun, Jack tried kissing her!
Mickey's Soundsational Parade was awesome!  Ellie was a dancing fool and all the princesses were blowing kisses right at her, it was so neat!  She was doing such a good job at waving to all the characters.
                                    
While we were at the Disneyland Park we rode Dumbo, the Circus train, the Tea Cups,  It's a Small World, Buzz Light Year's Astro Blasters, Astro Orbitor and explored Tune Town.  It was a busy and fun filled day!  Day two was spent at Disney California Adventure...

First stop Radiator Springs!

You can't tell from his expression but Jack was super excited
about seeing Mater!
 While Ellie and Jayson waited in line for Radiator Springs Racer Jack got to ride Luigi's Flying Tires.
Ellie's Birthday lunch at Ariel's Grotto.



The flirt is at it again.





Ellie had a crown to decorate while we waited.



A little Birthday cupcake!

Cheering for the best Birthday ever!

Riding on the Ferris wheel we had been scoping out
from our table at the Restaurant.


Francis Ladybug Boogie was one of Ellie's requests.
The kids liked it but it left the adults feeling woozy



Then it was off to Tuck and Roll's Drive'em Buggies.

Jack got soaked at Princess Dot Puddle Park.

 Pixar Play Parade was pretty amazing.



Jcak's favorites Lightning McQueen and Mater!



Back to Radiator Springs Racers so I could ride too!

Ellie was not a fan of that part of the ride!
 While we were at California Adventure Park we also saw the Disney Junior live production which the kids loved.  The rides we rode I didn't post pictures of were, Toy Story Midway Mania (Ellie's favorite), Mater's Junkyard Jamboree, Flik's flyers, and Heimlich's Chew Chew Train.  Jayson and I rode Soaring Over California which was amazing!  All in all it was a very successful trip to Disneyland with the help of Grandma Debbie.

Next up on our little get away was heading to Seal Beach for a day of fun at the Beach while Daddy had a work luncheon to attend to.















 We had such a great experience at Disneyland we are looking forward to heading back again someday.  Now that we are back to the real world we had some very tired and cranky kiddos today.
