The Rides!!!

Macey loved the rides at Disneyland...as long as they weren't fast, a lot dark, and didn't have any "fally things" (drops)! She had heard a lot about Space Mountain and really wanted to go on it first but we didn't think that was the greatest idea (part of her day one meltdown) and we persuaded her into Fantasyland where our first rides were the Merry-Go-Round and Dumbo. After that she only wanted Space Mountain so we decided to give it a go, and she hated it! After that she was very questionable about every ride we went on. She loved pretty much everything in Fantasyland, some of her favorites were Snow White, Peter Pan, Mr. Toad, Pinocchio and of course Small World. She was not a fan of Pirates of the Caribbean the first time but we rode it again our last night and she liked it a lot better. When you ask her she says it is her favorite but that might just be because it is Greta's favorite :) She tried Splash Mountain twice, she didn't like it the first time and we were surprised that she asked to go on it again the next day. She hated getting splashed and gave us one of the most memorable quotes of the trip when her face got wet as she exclaimed "Oh No! My eyes are all injured!". She also really like Winnie the Pooh, Toy Story and Ariel's Undersea Adventure. Avery liked most of the rides too, as long as she could sit on our laps (with the exception of Toy Story where she didn't mind sitting alone). As you can see in the Lady Bug Boogie picture she was not happy when they made her sit on her own!
And here are way to many pictures of us on the rides...in no particular order :)

I never realized how scary some (most)of the rides could be to little kids until we took Caden and Halle. How fun that they actually liked them!
