The second weekend in November 6 of us girls went to Disneyland for a Girls trip!! Ü It was SO much fun!! A different feeling being there without my kids, but fun nonetheless! (ps- Melissa, we did get year passes when we were there in October that's why we're going so much! Gotta get all we can out of it for the year! Ü)
So 4 of us from Hurricane, and 2 from AZ met at our hotel on Thursday night. It ended up becoming a "Mom and Daughter" trip!!
This is how our trip started off... My lovely friend Wendy, well she likes C*#E... Ya, but we're still friends! Ü
Once we met up with the AZ girls, we headed across the street to Cheesecake Factory for dinner! Ü Yummy! My Mom and I
Wendy and her daughter Ashley
My best friend Holly and her Mom Gail
(Gail is the other Arizonian that drove over with my Mom Ü)
We were up and ready to head to the Happiest Place on Earth half hour before the park even opened!! We were all to excited to sleep!!
Ash on her phone...
Now, these clothes on the floor have a funny story... My sweet friend Wendy is O.C.D (or CDO as she calls it, cuz it has to be in alphabetical order!) So she went down the hall to check out breakfast, and I went in to use the bathroom. When I walked in her clothes were on the floor!! This is SO NOT like her, I had to take a picture to document it! She was SO embarrassed! But it made the rest of us feel better, not everyone is perfect! Love you Wendy!! Ü
Our fun group by the Christmas tree on Main St
Walking down Main St... Christmas time at Disneyland is SO awesome!!
In line for the Matterhorn... What else is there to do when you don't have kids to keep an eye on in line?! Check facebook of course! Ü
The Castle is so pretty all decorated! Holly and Ash are pretty too!
Thank you Walt for your wonderful vision of Disneyland!! We love it there!! Ü
On the Winnie the Pooh ride!
Aww... Jack Sparrow!! Just my personal opinion, but Kernan makes a much cuter one! haha!
The 4 of us waited for the Christmas parade to start, while Wendy and Ash went and rode more rides... It is a super cute parade!! But let's take note, I wasn't the only one playing on my phone at Disneyland! hehe!
We headed over to California Adventure to watch World of Color! Wendy snapped this picture, I love it!
So World of Color is still just as awesome the 3rd time you see it as it is the 1st and 2nd!!
So Holly spotted this guy (can you see him to the left of her shoulder?!) Who is it?! He's on GLEE!! We had to get a picture! Ü
In line for our final ride of the night! Indiana Jones!!
So this ride has a good story! While we were in line our first time, a guy came up to my Mom and said, "Here, you have a U shirt on, I'm going to give this to you! It's a pass for 6 people to get to the front of any ride!" See what happens when you choose the right?! GO UTES!!
So we rode Indiana Jones, and then decided to use the slip and go again!!
I drove the second time! It was great though, we got off the first time, asked the guy how we use the ticket and he said go right over to the elevator over there go up and across then get in the other elevator and come down... It took us right to the bottom to get on again!!
As we were finishing up our second ride, I said, "I'm going to try and see if he'll let us go again!" Well, Matt must have thought we were cute because he let us do it again!! This time my Mom and Gail sat out and waited for us to go again...
Thanks Matt!! (cuz he totally reads my blog! NOT!)
Wendy was our driver for that trip...
This next part is purely for my journal and memory, you can skip over it if you want! Ü
So after our 3rd ride on Indy, we were walking down the exit when I realized my phone wasn't in my sweatshirt pocket anymore (must have been Wendy's crazy driving!) I knew I had it at Indiana Jones because it vibrated while we were in line to tell me the battery was DEAD! Ü So I went right back up to Matt and he checked every car as it came around, it was midnight by this time which is when the park closes. No luck! So I filed a case with lost and found and left... what more could I do!? Well 6:30 that morning my Mom's phone rings... It's MY PHONE!! So she answered it and no one was there, she called it right back and no one answered. Well I knew that the lost and found had chargers to charge the phones so they could verify numbers and contacts to put the right phone with the right owner. I couldn't sleep after that, I figured lost and found had charged it and tried calling my Mom because I put her as a contact. So I got up and showered and walked back to Disneyland, while everyone else still slept! Ü As I walked back I was almost to the entrance when I witnessed my first roll over accident! It was so scary!! No one was hurt except the driver of the vehicle, but it could have been SO much worse! Thankfully there was no one in the crosswalk walking into the entrance! After I made sure no one was seriously injured, I went to lost and found and they didn't open for another half hour, so I went and got a Jamba Juice in Downtown Disney. Ü Once they opened lost and found I found out that they had not gotten my phone... which meant someone had my phone!! So I headed back to the hotel, when I got back everyone was up and going and I found out that my phone and called and text several different people! None of the texts made any sense, they were just a bunch of symbols and no one ever said anything when they answered the call!! I put my phone on hold right away! Thankfully I have insurance so for $50 I got a refurbished replacement phone. Well when that one got to me, it had scuffs in the inside of it so I called them and they sent me a brand new Droid 2! I had the Droid 1! So in the end it worked out in my favor, I got an upgraded phone for FREE!! Alright, there ya have it, if you read that whole thing way to go!! Ü
The Castle looks so pretty right now!! I LOVE Disneyland!! (can ya tell?!)
Before we all took off home Saturday we headed over to the Orange County Swap meet...
On our drive home we spotted Cinderella in her car!!
We also spotted the Golden Nugget! haha!!
After my terrible day I had, we stopped in Vegas for gas and dinner and took a picture with our sad faces outside the "terrible" sign!
Here's our yummy dinner out of the back of my car... Costco Muffins!! Left over from our breakfasts!
And this is how our trip ended... Wendy got a Dr. Pepper for the rest of the drive home, is that not huge?! Ü
Thanks girls for such a FUN trip!! I can't wait to do it again!!
