DISNEYLAND!!! THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH

(Ya I know it's been a while!)

The Stokers also went to Disneyland with the rest of the family! It was GREAT!!! We left on Wednesday at noon and drove to the state line and stayed at Buffalo Bills. Totally GHETTO, but what can you expect for an $8 hotel room? Tyler was pumped that we were at a hotel so he got in his swimsuit, we got to the pool, and it was NASTY!!!! There were leaves all over in it and to top it off there was a packet of cigarettes in it as well!! Poor Tyler was devasted, but we reassured him that when we get to Disneyland that he can go swimming there! That got him excited and ready for the early long drive.




So we got up at 3 a.m. and headed to Disneyland. When we finally got there (cause we decided to see the ghetto side of Anaheim not by choice either) it was great!! Tyler was loving every moment! He was in heaven I swear the whole time! Zoey on the other hand hated every ride we went on. She was not liking it at all! She would smile in some pictures but it was a worried kind of smile. We meet everyone at the Alice in Wonderland ride and then we went over to California Adventure to ride Toy Story. I liked it but of course Zoey did not.




Then we went over to the Tower of Terror! (Thank goodness Tyler wasn't tall enough) While we were heading over to Tower of Terror Goofy showed up! So of course we had to get a picture taken! Tyler loved Goofy, Zoey however did not. (go figure)





After the Tower of Terror we went to Playhouse Disney. It's a show that they put on with some of the characters from the Disney channel. It was so cute! All of the kids loved it! Even Zoey!!! After Playhouse Disney we went to Taste Pilots grill and had lunch then we went on Soarin over California! Tyler was tall enough for this ride and he loved it!! It was like you were flying or hang gliding. It was great! Then we decided to head to the hotel for a nap! It was well deserved cause we all crashed!




Then we meet everyone back at Disneyland for the parade! I loved it!! Zoey was loving the parade too! Some of the characters would come up to her and shake her hand and give her a hug! She had a good time. Tyler enjoyed it too! He saw all of his favorite characters.



After the parade we went to see the man of the hour MICKEY MOUSE!!! Tyler would not take his eyes off him!! And when we got our group picture taken of course he had to be right in front of Mickey!! It totally made his day!



Then we went back to the hotel and that was the end of
day 1

It was totally a great time. I love looking at the pictures. It brings back so many memories. You got some really good ones. It took Zoey awhile but I think by the last day she liked Disneyland too.
