Disneyland!

So my mom's birthday is tomorrow ... yes, it happens to be on Thanksgiving this year, so... if your birthday is on Thanksgiving you are kind of locked into what you do and what you eat and where you go. Thus last thursday {one week early} my mom picked going to Disneyland for her birthday and Bennett and I got to go too!
{gotta love it when Mom pays for you to do something for her birthday!} 
We had such a great time going to "Mickey's house" {as Bennett called it} and celebrating "Grammy"! 

Not so sure about the giant talking Buzz .... but he loved shooting Zurg! 

He was so excited to be driving! 

This was my ride for the day ... yep, I'm that pregnant!

{But really it was great to have. There is no way I would have made it thru a 12 hour day without it!}

He really liked Small World too! I think he was a little overwhelmed at first, but he continued to talk about it for the rest of the day! 

Making friends with the girl who was throwing sweet potato fries to the ducks

He has no idea what is coming ... he hasn't actually seen Pooh yet at this point! 

The Big Meeting! 

Truly the highlight of the whole day! 

He couldn't even look away for a picture! He was just so happy to be with his friend! 

Once he was back in the stroller he was ready to map out his next move .... ToonTown! 

It was about a 45 minute wait to get this picture ... good thing it's pretty cute! 

On our way to the other park for Bug's Life and Disney Junior and Brother Bear, Bennett curled himself up in a ball and just passed out! Seriously, he was down for the count! So the rest of us had a great time sitting and eating soft pretzels with cheese sauce and mochas and cookie ice cream sandwiches ... it was a great nap time!

Once we finally found a place to watch the parade we had some time to kill ... so what better time killer is there than Popcorn?!

Bennett said "Mom, two Mickies!" ha ha! Opps, I guess we never really talk about Minnie that often! 

Believe it or not, the Dumbo line was still ridiculously long at 7pm so this was Bennett's entire Dumbo experience ...

{I mean, let's be honest, it's not like he has even seen the movie ... he just thought it was cool that there was an elephant for him to sit on!}

Last ride of the day and he was so happy to go on the "Casey Train"!

He specifically picked out the Monkey car ... which was not easy to get into! 

 And to finish it all off we caught the fireworks as we were heading to the parking garage ...

This was such a fun day! 

Thanks Mom for including Bennett and I in your birthday fun! 

Happy Birthday tomorrow!
