Disneyland




Disneyland really is a happy place and we sure enjoyed ourselves!  We spent 3 long days walking our legs off between the two parks and loved every minute of it.  Camber & Emily were pretty little the last time we were there and California Adventure was just being built.  We enjoyed our share of the magic!




So one of Leisa's VERY favorite rides was the Toy Story Arcade.  Even though she never came out with high score, she couldn't get enough of it.  She honestly wants one in her back yard!



We were some of the lucky ones who were given Dream Passes on our 2nd day!  What a treat, a fast pass to every big attraction in Disney & California Adventure!  It pays to be in the right place at the right time!  (We happened to be walking by the Wishing Well next to the castle.) Since we already had wheelchair privileges on the Disney side, we went in search of the perfect little family of 4 to share them with.  It was really neat to do this.  
We loved the short wait that day in California Adventure.  
That meant several rides on Toy Story Arcade for Leisa!!  


With the economy these days we are coming to the realization that we may spend some of our twilight years as "welcome to Walmart" greeters - well, that has become a thought of the past!  We now know we can either model (see above photo) for Disney ads or be disney sweepers(see photo below) instead of Walmart greeters!!  What a job!  Grandpa Mark let his little secret out of his crush on Mrs. Incredible so Grandma Leisa would definately have her hands full keeping an eye on him although she could play the fairy Godmother - hmmmmm that could be really fun...chasing him around with a magic wand! 



Leisa fell in love with this dress - she wants one just like it! Really bad.
No kidding.



Such cute girls!




This photo is included for the sheer enjoyment of all Firthlings who can forever have the memory of their mother wearing a bag on her head as she rode splash mountain.



Great memories made!
