and her FIRST trip to Disneyland. It does not seem to matter if you are sixty (sorry Mom) or two, it still holds a piece of magic for everyone. I spent the last week with my Mom, Lightning, Miss M, Sissy, Miss Melissa and my little sister Auntie M at the Magical Kingdom having an absolute blast.
Here are our two first timers sharing a little "Kodak" moment before entering the park.
Our first stop was breakfast w/the characters. I was a little worried about Sissy and how she would react to everything. She is such a sensitive little girl. Well she did ok w/Pooh but I think one character visit was enough for her because when Tigger showed up she freaked out and covered her face. Hiding behind a sliver of watermelon was not working and
neither was Tiggers attempt at playing her game with her. He tried to hard to be her friend, but she was not having it. This is pretty much how she responded to every character who visited us after that. She did try to get close enough to hug Minnie Mouse but chickened out at the last second.
The rest of the crew had no troubles warming up to all of our breakfast visitors.
Santa makes a stop at the magic kingdom too this time of year and guess who would not sit on his lap MMMMHHH???? That is ok, because at least Santa knows what the big kids want for Christmas. I can not wait to scrap some of these fun memories!!!
We took it slow and got in all fun rides we wanted too. My Mom has MS (Multiple Sclerosis) and did not let it slow her down a bit. I was not surprised by this because MS does not own her life...she does!!! My Mom amazes me with her courage and strength and I am so glad we had this fun time together!!! She rode every roller coaster except California Screamin and her favorite ride was Soarin. 
It rained in CA. as much as it did in AZ. on Friday and so we took advantage of a few "WET" rides. Miss M loved Splash Mountain until we were dropped fifty feet while being soaked to the core. It did not phase Lightning at all! He would have rode over and over again if I had been a better sport.
Even though my sweet Sissy did not care to get up close and personal w/the characters the rest of the trip was a hit. She loved the parade and fireworks and was not afraid of a single ride we took her on.
I love going on vacations and I also love coming home. I missed my Hubby and my two babies and I am glad to be back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
