Our Last Night at Disneyland 2012

Jes got to see the holiday parade again (at dawn) and El saw it for the first time!

All bundled up, ready for ICE CREAM!!

We waited in line to see Small World light up...as El says, "IT WAS AAAAAWESOME!!!"



 

 



Next, Merry Go Round!

First time I didn't hold Jes.


We waited in the street for 30 minutes...Jes tried so hard to keep his eyes open and DID!!  It was miraculous
 (see video above)

8:45 pm...starting to lose our Jes to sleep...oh, I'd love for him to see fireworks...but he passed out.

El had his 3DSXL to keep him occupied as we waited an hour with great seats for the fireworks!!

No photo can show the beauty...at the end, El said, "MOM THIS WAS THE BEST NIGHT EVER!!"  I have to say, it ranked high on the top of my list as well.  It was the best way to end our annual pass year at Disneyland.  What a tough year it has been for so many.  I squeezed my babies so tight and reminded them so many times how blessed we are to have them in our family.  I told them I was scared to be there without Daddy and they had to stick tight together and we have to all take care of each other in the crowds.  Daddy wanted to go so bad, but he had to work.  Bye Disneyland...it may be a year or two before we are able to visit again, but we looooved hangin' out in 2012. 

Forever Young, Bob Dylan

May God bless and keep you always, May your wishes all come true, May you always do for others And let others do for you. May you build a ladder to the stars And climb on every rung, May you stay forever young. May you grow up to be righteous, May you grow up to be true, May you always know the truth And see the lights surrounding you. May you always be courageous, Stand upright and be strong, May you stay forever young. May your hands always be busy, May your feet always be swift, May you have a strong foundation When the winds of changes shift. May your heart always be joyful, May your song always be sung, May you stay forever young.
