We went to Disneyland!

Emma and I went to Disneyland for the first time today! We went with Emma's friend, Ashlyn, and her mommy, Michelle. We got in for free because of our friend Ally - who was supposed to have gone with us today but was unfortunately sick. She gave us passes that got us in for free, and if we'd had time and energy, we would have been able to park hop over to California Adventure. But the girls were wiped ... and so were we.

So, there are tons of photos on our photo album site here, but I've had requests to include photos on here (I heard you, Jaime!), so here are a few of my faves from today's excitement...




We rode the Dumbo ride, the Teacups, It's a Small World, the Nemo Submarine and the carousel. We had a nice lunch at a little cafe right next to the Jedi training area, which was so fun to watch. We met up with Michelle's friend, Kellie, and her son for dinner at the Rainforest Cafe, which was really cool.

We didn't end up leaving until about 8:00 p.m., which is already half an hour past Emma's bedtime. She slept about 30 minutes on the way home, and then she was so excited to be here that she just got all upset. She was beside herself, but I think it was just from sheer exhaustion. She didn't nap at all today. My little trooper.

That's all for now. More later.

Always remember: It really is a small world, after all.
