Disneyland 2015-Day 1




Get ready!
Disney pics galore ahead.

3 straight days of breaking down the doors when the park opened, and sticking it out to the bitter end!

Day 1 always has such a magic about it.

Here we are waiting to go in!







It was a real toss up trying to decide where to start, but, we decided with little ones... it'd probably be best to start safe.  We headed to Buzz Lightyear, and it was a great kick-off.
It wasn't long before Jack was off on all the big rides (first trip he was tall enough), and he never looked back.
Tucker was so happy the whole trip.  Whether he was in his stroller, munching on treats, or going on rides, he was thrilled all the same!
I never even lost him!!! I had his phone number in Sharpie on his had, 2 leash/harness options in the backpack, and we thankfully never needed any of them!
Little squirt couldn't have been better.

Can't guarantee that all the pics are going to be in order of the day... but, you get the idea.



Grandma Jackie is a crowd favorite, especially with the toddlers!


Thunder Mountain was one of Jack's favorites... he loves FAST rides.




It wasn't very long in the day before we just HAD to get over to the Haunted Mansion.
I wasn't 100% sure how Tucker was going to react, but I should have known better.
It was his favorite, of course.


Jack was pretty amped with all the Star Wars memorabilia, the Meet Darth Vader show, and Star Tours (more on that later).
He got a little bashful when he got up close and personal with this Stormtrooper.



Everyone (especially Brett) was so great with Tucker.  He was the only one too small to go on a lot of the rides, but everyone pitched in spending some time with the little mug.

My parents, there are no words.
They made the trip possible, and they made the trip just by being them.


Another fast ride for Jack! Most of these ride-pics you can't even see him because he's so small!
Honestly, his first time on every big ride was the thrill of my trip.  He was never scared... never nervous... just loved them!  Just like his mama.



Teacups were a Tuck hit.


I hung with Sam and Jack in Tarzan's treehouse that afternoon while Tuck crashed.
(He did this daily for a couple of hours).



Jack hanging with the big-kid crowd.


Cute little rat.  Looks like an infant on all these rides!




Annie and Brett had a romantic couple of hours this day in Bugs Land with Sam and Tucker while the rest of us waiting in an eternal Tower of Terror line.


Again, Jack was not nervous in the least.  He was amped!
He especially loved the haunted hotel, and all of the Twilight Zone garb.

You sure don't realize just how scary some of these rides are until you take your little mini on them!


He did AWESOME!!
The second it was over he really had to pee, so I think it actually scared the @*%& out of him, but he didn't let it show.  It was Lucy's first time, too... as you can see... she wasn't so sure.


We wrapped up the day until the park closed in California Adventure.. man I love this crew.




It was a perfect first day in the Happiest Place on Earth!
Heavenly weather, a little crowded... but, no big because we had the stroller/fast pass game down!

Crashed back at the hotel, and we were on to DAY 2!!
