Happy Birthday to Me!

I turned 23 and wanted to spend that day with Mickey. We headed to Disneyland with Jessica and her nephew Alex on Monday morning. When we first go there it seemed really crowded but I think that was mostly because the park hadn't opened yet. We headed straight for Tomorrow Land, mixing it up a bit because we always go to Adventure Land. First ride? Space Mountain of course. Madison is finally over 40 inches so it was time to introduce her to the big rides. Johnny sat next to her and sadly it was really hard to enjoy because I was listening the whole time for her cries or screams. She never cried and when it was over she said, "Rocket fun, it go 'round and 'round and whoa whoa whoa!" Success! We went on Finding Nemo and Buzz.

Johnny and Jessica are extremely competitive when it comes to anything. One time when we went to CA Adventure Madison and I sat together and then Jessica and Johnny went on together, as usual but she had her nephew so she told him to pretend to shoot. Hahaha She knows shes evil! Anyways we finish the ride and discover that Johnny has the high score for the day. He was very excited and it was fun because they showed his picture on the tvs by the emailing station.

The rest of the day was a lot of fun. We went on pretty much everything and had to wait maybe 20 minutes. It rained for about 20 minutes and of course that was when we went on splash mountain! Madison really liked that ride, which only proves more that she takes after Johnny! Madison had so much fun with Alex. They were so cute together! It really made the day easy with them to entertain each other. We had so much fun!! I really loved Small World and all the new characters they added, it really made it fun to look for them throughout the ride! Now we just have to wait 3 more months before we go again! We are going to make Lynne go on her birthday. We are saving Maddy's first time Storybook land for when Lynne comes and I dont know how much longer we can stay off of it. Madison was asking about it while we were there this time.

We stayed till it closed (which was one 8) and caught the ending of Fantasmic so Madison could watch the fireworks. It made me cry watching her face light up as she saw Mickey. I love that we had made Disney such a big part of her life and that she absolutely loves Mickey and all the other characters!

I cant wait to go back!!!
