In addition to taking photos throughout the trip, Sean and I started an email thread where we'd jot down little notes & memories. You know like funny things he said, or little moments we didn't want to forget. I'm so glad we did this...and encourage other Mommies out there to give it a go on their next trip! Here's the run down of those captured moments:
1. "We are in Race Cars Land" - said as we entered Radiator Springs in California Adventure
2. "It's our turn now!" - said in every line (long or short), many...MANY times!
3. "Mama, where is my button?" - said after he saw a boy with his "first visit" button on his shirt (Mama left his in the hotel room)
4. "We crashed!" - while on the Peter Pan ride
5. "Mama! No talking...only singing!" - said to me while he cupped my face in his tiny toddler hands
6. "Elephants Not Scary!" - said after riding Dumbo for the first time!
7. "I like that taxi monster ride!" - said after the Monsters Inc ride at California Adventure
8. Sean: Landon, did you bump Mama in the cars? Landon: Yeah...that was silly!
Sappy Moment Alert: The last time Sean and I were at Disneyland was on a double date with Dan & Carlene at Christmas 2005. Now, here we were...8 years later, married and with our 2 year old son, standing under the same huge Christmas tree on Main Street. Time flies when you're having fun (and happily married & busily chasing your son around)!
I think he liked "driving" this car outside Mr. Toad's Wild Ride more than the ride itself! |
Highlight for Landon: "Race Cars Land" and meeting his favorite character: LIGHTING MCQUEEN! |
"Mama, look...there's the roller coaster!" |
