We had our map and Jaina was excited to explore, too bad we were still in the hotel.
While waiting for JD & Chris, we gathered in the lobby, ready to go!
YAY!!
Walking through the hotel property to head to Downtown Disney.
These 3 girls are peas in a pod.
They were doing everything together the whole week.
Hi Walt!! Hi Mickey!!
We immediately headed over to get in line for Radiator Springs Racers.
This little girl was so excited to be there!
The first ride of the trip!!!
Karri was nice enough to stay with Melody for the first ride, so she
got to go through the fast pass line with Jaina and Sawyer.
Mom had a goal to get family pictures all over the parks!
Next on the agenda was Toy Story Midway Mania!
I love this ride so much and got to be with Jaina for her first time.
Melody just wanted to hold the ball the entire time.
We were making our way around the boardwalk and Screamin' was next!
I was so excited to go on my favorite ride because I missed this one last time we came.
I love that I don't have to worry too much about naps while we run around
everywhere. When she's tired she's tired.
Next was Mickey's Fun Wheel. We opted to go on a bucket that was
stationary, while everyone else went on a moving one.
Silly Symphony Swings
Jaina loved this even though her face doesn't show it.
When we were done Jaina cried and didn't want to get off because she wanted to go again.
So the amazing Cast Member let us stay on for another ride without having to get back in line.
I opted out of the Jumpin' Jellyfish so daddy did this one with Jaina.
Golden Zephyr
This was the first time I had been on this one!
Then the one that all the girls were looking forward to:
The Little Mermaid - Ariel's Undersea Adventure
Jaina was up for any ride, especially if she was going with
daddy, like Grizzly River Run.
It's hard to tell, but they got really wet.
Another one of my favorites:
Soarin' Over California
We were so blessed to be there with family that was willing to hang out with Melody so the
rest of us could go on the big rides. She didn't mind one bit and liked to chill in the stroller.
We needed to get out of the heat, so indoors we went.
Pat and I took Jaina and Finley to Disney Junior Live on Stage
They had Mickey Mouse Club House, Doc McStuffins and Jake and the Neverland Pirates.
Everyone else went into the Animation Building and some of them did
the Animation Academy and learned how to draw Goofy.
And Mara took the quiz to see which character she was most like.
Next up: Tower of Terror!!!
We then headed into Bug's Land
Flik's Flyers
Francis' Ladybug Boogie
This one is supposed to be like the Tea Cups, but it made me way sick, and
we weren't even spinning a bunch either. Not my favorite.
Heimlich's Chew Chew Train
I just love her little hand and wide eyes!
Tuck and Roll's Drive 'Em Buggies
We went back to Cars Land
Luigi's Flying Tires
Family picture #2
Mater's Junkyard Jamboree
We went back to the boardwalk and rode Screamin' again.
This time I got to go with Mana!
No one else wanted to join us for Goofy's Sky School, so the four of
us used the single rider line to make it go faster!
When we were all done for the day, we headed to the pool at the hotel.
This was such a great way to end day 1.
