Trek to Disneland

Yes, we took our trip to Disneyland during Elizabeth's break from school last week. Did she like it? Yes and no. At first she was excited and then she saw Goofy, who was undoubtedly a lot taller than she had seen him on t.v. She freaked a bit and decided that she wanted to go home. "I no like Goofy," she cried. "I wanna go home." Luckily for us, Minnie showed up and saved the day. Minnie was smaller and "pretty" as Elizabeth would say. We had to wait on line numerous times to let Elizabeth hug Minnie.

Elizabeth was a little disappointed that Minnie "didn't talk". "Minnie is quiet", Elizabeth said--"she no talking".

The rest of the day was sort of hit and miss, but generally she had a pretty good time. Luckily her friend Mei Mei was with and that helped Elizabeth fear level.

The girls also flipped for the face painting as you can see below--who needs all the rides in Disneyland when you can get your face painted like a Princess?



Elizabeth was pretty darn sacked out when we got home. She plopped into bed that night and didn't move until the next morning.



Elizabeth loves her facepaint. But here is a hint--don't take a nap while wearing face paint unless you want pink and purple sheets









Mei Mei was really compliant when it came to face painting, she didn't move a muscle while she was being worked on by the makeup artist.
