February 18, 2009 Day One- Disneyland!
We left the twins at home which was a good thing because a majority of the 'fun' rides were a minimum 40 inches tall. They were missed but we had such a great time without them!
The really cool thing about this trip was it was pretty much free (except for lodging) we got a free Chase Disney Rewards Visa a couple years ago and thats pretty much all we have been using. It isnt the greatest 'reward' for every $100 you get $1 but a lot of times they specials where if you use it you get a better rate like $5. So after 2 years of using the card we got something like $850...enough to get 3 adults and a child to get in and eat for three days with a few gifts too! Yay! Now we are racking up the points for a trip to DisneyWorld in 2012!
Princess Samantha waiting for Daddy to buy the tickets so we can get into the Magic Kingdom!
A lot of waiting in lines. We are about to go on our first ride 'Snow White' Flying Dumbo!

teacup- Alyssa took Sam on this ride on Day 3 while I waited in line at the Princess Fantasy Faire (again)
It was probably the longest line we waited in the whole trip. But oh so worth it...Samantha is soo into Princesses and you get one on one time with 3 different princesses. The first time through it was Belle, Aurora (Sleeping Beauty) and Mulan

Jon went on this ride when he was a little bit older then Sam and passed out at the very beginning. His mom spent the whole time trying to wake him up. Sam loved it!
