Last night we braved the crowds to go and experience the "Happiest Place on Earth" at Christmastime. It was perfect...the weather was nice and chilly (for So Cal), the kiddos had taken their naps, we parked in Downtown Disney for free (and didn't lose our car this time), we had ice cream, popcorn and hot chocolate and had a great spot to see the fireworks. It was so much fun and definitely something I think we'll make a tradition out of!!
Cinderella's castle decorated for Christmas.
Our family...gotta love the kiddos doing their own thing, but hey, they are happy! Notice the weird guy peering in from behind? You know he's doing that on purpose. Thanks guy!
"Small World" ride. The outside of the ride has 50,000 lights on it and the inside was all decorated for Christmas with 100,000 additional lights!! These pictures don't do it justice, of course!!

Beginning of the "Small World" ride. If you've never been on the ride...you go through a lot of different cultures. There are little characters and things that dance and music plays for the different countries. This time, every culture was decorated for Christmas and there was Christmas music playing. As we rode along, there were also different smells of Christmas. I have never enjoyed this ride so much! Disney definitely knows how to make an "experience"!!
Woody and Jessie!! Sadie has never seen the Toy Story movies but LOVES all the characters. Guess I should have her watch the movies!
Braden was having SO much fun watching all the things move and dance. With the festive Christmas music playing he was dancing right along!! So fun!!
My happy boy!
Brian and the kids on the carousel ride! 
Looks like everyone had a great time. The lights are really pretty. Love, love the pic of Braden dancing. Give him and Sadie lots of hugs and kisses from papa please. Love ya'll. Dad and Papa
