Magic Morning

 

We had a magic morning pass for Day 2 of Disney. We got there early, took tons of pictures, and walked on to 2 different rides (which is the greatest thing ever next to sliced bread). That picture was the hardest one to take by the way. 

Isn't she just the cutest little thing you ever did see? She's loving Disneyland. She's always smiling, she's pretty funny to be around, and she thought the birds in the Tiki Room were real right up until the flowers started to sing. 

See she's pretty cute. Here's the story of Alexa. At school she doesn't have friends, she'll bring candy and things to help make friends but everyone she tries to be friends with don't like her. She's having a really tough time, and she's only 8. Before we left, I prayed that I'd be able to help her. Help her feel loved, appreciated, and wanted. I'm really hoping when we go back home, she stays her cute, little, smiley self. 

Everyone always talks about going to Disneyland with their best friend. Well I can check that off my bucket list. Done, deal. 

This was taken on It's a small world. We made fun of it. Enough said. 

After we got off small world my mom texted me a picture of Peter Pan. I literally ran from its a small world to the dumbo ride in .5 seconds. 

He compared our hair. Gingers for life. 

He got mad at me because I'm 17, which means I'm too old. 

Instead of growing up, I need to grow down. 

I pinky promised him that I would stop growing up. (sorry Peter can't keep that promise, but he was just so cute I couldn't say no..) 

We're best friends now. 

You're always walking at Disneyland. So by 9:00 I had already gotten 6,000 steps. The grand total of steps that were taken was; 29,346 which ends up being the equivalent to 12.59 miles. Look at me I'm above average. 

I've ended up walking at least 22 miles in the last 3 days. 

 

Dole Whip is life. Enough said about that subject. 

And so are Ghiradelli Square Sundaes. Heaven in a cup I tell ya. 

The total of rides we went on before 6:00 was; Snow White, Pinocchio, Small World, Carousel, Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean (again), Splash Mountain, big thunder mountain rail road twice, Indiana Jones, California screaming, Radiator Springs Racers and the nightmare Ferris wheel. 

Clearly we had way too much just during the day, we needed to come back for the night. 

We came back and did a couple more rides, we did terror of terror twice back to back, California screaming, the nightmare Ferris wheel, and lots of others. 

Selfie featuring the Mickey Mouse Ferris wheel that scared me to death. 

Fantasmic was fantastic. The dragon was killer. However, nothing can get in the middle of my love for Prince Phillip. 

Day 2 was full of magic, laughs, smiles and meeting new people. 

Fun story; my mom met this lady who asked her if we were Mormon and my mom said yes, and she said "oh I know, you guys glow!" This to me is the greatest compliment anyone could give to me. By "glowing" I know that people can see Christ in me. He lives so that other people can see Him through us. 

We're important to this time and age of selfies, likes and followers, and an abundance of blessings. We have to realize that we're here for a reason, and that reason is to invite people to come unto Him, and learn of the truth, his truth. 

I'm really sorry that my Day 2 post took forever, but when you're having fun you get tired easier. 

The last day, day 3 is next!
