This is Us: The Browns at Disneyland

Yes, we love the thrill rides, and yes, we were too cheap to buy the $25 picture from the park, so we just took a picture of the picture. One of many. We rode Space Mountain seven times. It was Easton's favorite!

This was our very last ride of the three day excursion at Disney - The Grizzly Water ride at California Adventure. We saved it for the very end in case we got wet, and yes indeed-e-o...we did. Easton and Ryan took the hardest hit as the geyser exploded right as they were passing by. Seriously, we cracked up so hard on this ride. What a great way to end our trip.


What great memories!

Ryan & Barrett on the Matterhorn (day 3). We loved this one too. It was the very first ride we did on the first day, so it set the tone for all the fun.

Toy Story Mania - really a fun, interactive ride (it was a shooting game), but the wait was too long! It was our only long wait of the trip, and not sure it was worth it. But since this ride was new, we didn't know what to expect...and didn't think we'd be waiting that long! Yes, we were spoiled with all the other short waits I know...


We loved loved loved California Screamin'! It's the fastest and most intense ride in both parks.

Since Easy E was too short for Screamin', dad took him to buy a souvenir while the girls rode the second day. He's been lugging Mickey around ever since.

We ran into Jessie from Toy Story at Disneyland and Rowan was so excited for a quick photo op. I didn't want to wait in line behind a bazillion other little girls for a picture with Cinderella, but we saw the glass slipper princess too.


Easton had a blast exploring the Tarzan treehouse just outside of the Indiana Jones ride. Indy was the only other ride he was too short for, but it worked out great for him. He climbed and played on Tarzan the whole time that Ryan and the girls were on the ride.

My favorite ride - the Tower of Terror at California Adventure. We had fast passes for this one on Monday night at 8:15, and it was amazing and scary all over again. It had been 3 1/2 years since the last time, and I had sort of forgotten how cool a ride it is. We did it again the next day too.






Snack break - pretzels with cheese please!




Really, we just had "too much fun."

  1. There's no such thing as too much fun. Sounds like a blast. I'm glad you got to go, we're heading there in a month. Woowee! Jeremy and the kids' first trip.
