Disneyland!

Dear Charlie,

This year for Papa’s birthday (May 9th), your Nana and Papa took us all to Disneyland!  You absolutely love Mickey, but you can’t say “Mouse,” so you call him “Moose.”  Anytime we would see Mickey you would shout, “MOOSE!”  You’re so stinkin’ adorable.

We rode some rides at California Adventure as well as the Magic Kingdom.

 

 

You took a nice long nap in the middle.

And you got to meet Mater.  You didn’t know about Cars then, but Mater is now one of your favorites!  You watch Mater’s Tall Tales on Netflix everyday.

And you were a good little boy the whole day…as long as we supplied you with some chocolate milk here and there.  I think your favorite part was getting to talk to Crush from Finding Nemo.  That was your favorite movie at the time, and you were so excited to see him.  You were pretty annoyed that you couldn’t get out of your seat and go touch him though.  You also liked the submarine ride because it too had scenes from Finding Nemo.  You must get your love of ocean reefs from your Daddy.

I had such a fun time watching your cute little face light up every time you saw a character you recognized.  I think the next time we go you will appreciate it more because you have new Disney favorites like Cars, Dumbo, Toy Story, and Monsters Inc.  It will be a whole new experience for you when you are old enough to go on some of the other rides too. 

Before we left, your Nana bought you a little set of rubber Disney characters that had Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto.  Since our trip to Disneyland, you have to go to bed with at least one (but usually two) of these little characters.  Oh, I love you my little Disney boy!

 

Love,

Mom
