DISNEYLAND- The Last Hoorah

They say that time flies when you're having fun... and our year with Disneyland annual passes was just that- lots of fun, but over too soon. With our passes expiring on November 6th we decided that one last trip was imperative. The long Nevada day holiday served as the perfect timing for our adventure. My parents and my sister Tiffany and her family also decided to join us. We left early Friday morning on Oct. 29th and returned late Tuesday night on Nov. 2nd. The weather was great, the crowds weren't too bad and we ran into a lot of friends that we were able to hang out with. Since we have had several Disneyland posts this year, I won't bore you with idle chit chat- however I will enthrall your senses with fantastic photos of our magical Disney vacation!!!

We got to ride on the Lilly Belle!! This is the private car/caboose on one of the trains. We rode along with my parents, Tiff and family and the Floyd family. It made you feel pretty special, like you were a VIP at Disneyland!

It was named after Waly Disney's wife Lillian. That dress hanging behind Jason belonged to her.

We all signed the guestbook and journal

Love the wood paneled walls

Door signage

The ride is over....

Jace met up with his friend Brett and brother Jake-
