Girls Only!!!!

Ellie and I went on a girl trip to Disneyland last week. She is our only girl and Ricky and I thought it would be good for the two of us to go somewhere alone; of course Disneyland is the perfect place!! We had a great time being girls.
I have only been to Disneyland at Christmas time one other time and it was so pretty! Everything was so Christmasy and festive!

These are the garlands hanging over Main Street.

They had all the tiny houses decorated on the Storybook Land ride. It was so cute. Even the lamp post's had tiny wreaths on them.

Ellie's favorite thing was getting her hair makeup done. They have 6 or 7 chairs shaped like crowns and they just pamper the little princesses. She loved it!!

This is the almost finished product.

This is the finished product. She really wanted the black eyelashes and glitter. It was very cute. It is hard to see in this picture but she has a little tiara in her hair that was so cute! People commented the whole rest of the day on her hair and makeup. What little girl wouldn't love that?

Despite her princess look, Ellie is somewhat of a tomboy at heart. The rockets were one of her favorite rides this trip and we had to ride them twice. What can you expect from a girl with 4 brothers?

One of my favorite things to do at Disneyland is go to the breakfast with Minnie and her friends. The food is great, but the best part is that all of the characters come to your table while you eat. Minnie was so, so cute in her Christmas outfit.


Tigger was so funny. He was bouncing around teasing everyone making us all laugh.

This is a character you rarely see. Ellie kept playing with his big pink nose.

Max was so funny! I asked if we could take a picture with just Minnie and he acted so offended, but gave us both a big hug in the end.

We walked up through the castle and this is the book at the end. Very cool!

This tree was beautiful!! I don't know how they decorate it, but I heard a worker tell someone that they put it up overnight. Crazy!!
I have to put in a big thank you to Ricky for making this trip possible. He stayed home with the four boys and the dog for two days and he did great!! He took great care of the kids and was so excited for Ellie and I to spend some time together. What an awesome hubby!
