Disneyland - Character a go-go!

We went to Disneyland last week and had a great time! We got lots of pics of characters (the focus of today's post). It was our first real road trip with Aidan - he did pretty well, but he's still pretty young so we may not be doing this again soon! He was a little tired by the time we got there, but by the end he was loving it. I wonder if in his young mind he just thinks that this is what we do now - get up and go to Disneyland. When we got home, he played with SO many of his toys, I asked him if he was happy to be home, and he said, "No - go-go!" He even enjoyed the characters. We got 5-day passes for the price of 3-day passes, so we were able to take some nice breaks and still feel like we got our money's worth. Alex got to spend his 7th birthday at Disneyland - every child's dream, I'm sure. It was fun - but more about that later. Here are some character pics.
The White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland - we've never seen him out and about before:

Safari Mickey:
Aidan loved Woody!
Alex has his autograph book in hand, and his lanyard on for pin trading
Aidan also really liked the Monsters, Inc ride - I think we had to ride it 3 or 4 times in a row

Alex is just the best to pose!
We caught Stitch right after going on the Tower of Terror - one of Alex's favorite rides
Silly boys

How fun! Can't believe Alex is SEVEN! And Aiden is still such a toe-head. Wowza they are cute boys Camille!

What a fun trip. Disney is the best. I'm glad Aidan was good for you (for the most part). That always makes the trip more fun. Glad you made it home safe and sound.

We are jealous, but Happy Alex got to spend his special day there. What a dutch boy cutie Aidan! Jon said he threw a major tantrum, but I don't believe he could do such a thing.:) He is just too cute! Glad you are back!
