We headed out for Anaheim bright and early last Saturday.
As soon as we walked into the lobby of the hotel, Goofy walked up and the kids were thrilled.
The real Goofy showed up.
First morning at the park was very rainy, which turned out to be a blessing... no lines at all for about 6 hours.
Disneyland was decorated beautifully for Christmas. Seeing and touring through the castle and meeting princesses were the highlights of the trip for Paris.

The castle at night right before the fireworks show.
A gigantic X-mas tree in Downtown Disney. You barely notice the kids standing in front of it.
In jail in Mickey's Toontown.
Checking out Minnie's House.
Tarzan's treehouse, which was one of Mason's favorite spots.
Here we are at California Adventure- we all rode Mickey's giant ferris wheel in the background.
Dinner at Goofy's Kitchen was so much fun for the kids. They met character after character and were more excited then I could have ever imagined.
The kids helped Goofy "bake"a cake. Mason wanted to follow Goofy everywhere.
Christmas decorations in It's a Small World.
Thanks to Fastpass we went on Autotopia a million times with no wait.
Finally about to get on the Toy Story ride at CA Adventure. This was the only line we waited in and it took 1.5 hours... thankfully the ride was awesome.

well, it sounds like the best vacation ever!! so fun. sounds like you hit all the hot spots and saw every character! how fun. they'll remember it forever!
Wow, total dream vacation, and so cool that you drove down! Looks like a great time of year to go to Disney, and glad the rain didn't slow you guys down! Castle looks gorgeous all lit up. We took the boys once & did California Adventure too - my favorite ride there was the one where it feels like you're hang-gliding over different CA landscapes..Did you drive straight to P.Springs from LA?
i am so happy you all were able to do this! it looks so pretty decorated for christmas.
Julie,
Soaring over CA- that was all of our favorite also- so amazing... that and the firework show blew me away. We drove from Disneyland to Palm Springs- it's about a 2 hr drive
I have looked at all the pictures a bunch of times....everyone looks so happy. What a great way to end the week at PALM Springs. Max thought your moms place looked like Hawaii. Was Mason able to go on Soaring over Ca?
K- yes he went (we all went 4 times) and LOVED it!!
