Disneyland Afterwards

On our way towards Disneyland walking through Downtown Disney we took a slight detour to Build-A-Bear.  Auntie Helen remembered that we stopped here for Makayla's 1st birthday and wanted to do the same for Mylee Bear.  She has such a good memory.  So special that she's been here all the way from Hawaii to help us celebrate our girls 1st birthdays!

Makayla helped pick out a really cute bear for Mylee.  We even sang "Happy Birthday" into a little recorder to insert into the bears hand that she can press and play.  Now it's time to get her bear stuffed to perfection!  It's so cute!  Fun memories and little traditions we've made! Thank you Auntie Helen!

Here she is with her new friend, Pinky.  She's super pink with pink bows and pink roses on her fur.  Big sis did a good job! 
We finally made it into Disneyland and it was a nice day. Kind of overcast but perfect for walking around so it's not so hot!  The lines were pretty short too.  Here we are at Pixie Hollow where Tinkerbell and her friends live.  We've never been able to see them since the line is usually too long, but not today!  So here is Makayla taking Grandma's and Auntie.  Mylee's now napping with Daddy so he's just sitting and waiting for us.
She got to meet Silvermist and get her autograph.  Makayla was being so shy.  She was excited and happy though!  She was pretty!
And now Tinkerbell, she was really excited about this one since she knows who she is real well.  She doesn't really know all the other fairies yet but I'm sure in due time.  Well worth it for the autographs today!

Here she is watching the Dance Party Parade.  Ry took this picture because she's just too cute and so getting into it!  Hands on her hips and all and shakin' it!  You had to see it!  Too bad he wasn't quick enough to do a little video clip. 

There was more through out the day but pretty much mellow.  The Grandma's and Auntie Helen were so easy!  We did all that we wanted for the day and our way out Makayla finally gets to meet Jasmine!  She looks for Jasmine almost every time but she's never there for as many times as we've been.  We've seen Aladdin by himself but Makayla never wants to just see him.  So she was so happy that we got to end our day with this!
