Disneyland!

My mom, my sister Erin, and I went to Disneyland in October. We went with 5 other ladies, no kids, all adults, and it was so much fun. We had 4-day hopper passes and I will admit that I was exhausted at the end. The 3 of us shared one camera while we were there. We ended up taking 351 pictures! Those of you who know my mom understand that this is quite normal and maybe not a lot of pictures for her. Here are just some of our pictures for you to enjoy!
The classic pictures with Walt and Mickey in front of the castle and us in front of the castle.
I got the best shot of them right as they were taking off on California Screamin.
I was brave and did not buy a rain poncho for the River Run. We went on it 3 times in a row! I was soaked. A wave came right over the back of my seat and drenched me. We all walked back to the hotel, changed, and re-did our hair.
We ate at the Blue Bayou. It is the one you see when you are on the Pirates ride. I have heard good things about this place but I was very disappointed. I will never go back there to eat.
We were practicing our scared faces for the Haunted Mansion.
Almost all of our group.
Erin and I getting ready to shoot! I won the first time, she won the second.
We didn't go on the tea cups becuase, well we aren't stupid. We would have been done for if we did.
Splash Mountain was fun! We had 6 adults in one car (my mom is taking the picture). Erin and Lexie were drenched, the rest of us just had a few spots!
My little buddy! They have back packs of Yoda, Chewbacca, and R2-D2 that make it look like you are giving them a piggy back ride. David has a picture like this when we went 2 years ago so I had to do it again for him.

Everything was decorated for Halloween and they had fireworks at night. All the Disney villains were out and I got to take pictures of the Queen of Hearts. It was a great vacation with the girls!
