Disneyland!

The last week of September the whole Hettinger clan took a trip to Disneyland.  We had so much fun and can't wait to do it again.  

Mickey pancakes in anticipation of our trip.

On the airplane.

Our hotel was so close to Disneyland.  It was just a short walk away.  

Exploring the first day.

We can use this one as blackmail later.

The Lego store was a highlight!

Upon walking into the park we happened to be standing where Mickey came out and we were able to quickly grab a picture with him.  It happened so fast Alex was a little nervous.  He warmed up to the characters after that.

Waiting for Jedi training.  We were so happy both Wilson and Alex got picked to participate.  It was so fun!

We loved going to car's land for the first time.

And some hilarious ride pictures...

Before the trip we knew Alex was just barely below 40 inches and would not be able to go on many of the rides.  Brandon decided to buy him lifts and tall shoes to ensure he got to go on all the big rides.  It was pretty hilarious stuffing the lifts into his shoes before the tall rides.  He couldn't walk very well in them but it worked. It was so fun to take him on all the big rides.  Most of them he liked but wasn't in a hurry to do them again.

Space Mountain...again.

We boarded Boo for the first time while we were gone.  It turned out to be pretty rough on her.  She was so happy when we went to pick her up.  

It was so fun that all of our family was able to go on this vacation.  That hasn't happened in a long time.  Hopefully it won't be too long before we do it again.
