Birthday at Disney

 
I decided that I was going to celebrate my birthday this year like I was only ten, not the big 3-0!
 
We also wanted to take Jonah to CarsLand before he turned 3 and cost a ticket!  So, we combined the 30 year birthday milestone with the I am going to take full advantage of having a two year old, not three year old and go to Disney.
 
The day started out a little rough as Jonah decided he wasn't a fan of his apple juice, or Dad's driving, or maybe the vitamin on an empty stomach and proceeding to throw up all over himself and my car.  This is actually the second year in a row he's vomited on my birthday.  Hmmm.
 
After a pull off on the freeway, a change of clothes and some major wipe downs, we were off to have the "magical" day Disney promises.
 
I was BEYOND excited for Jonah to see CarsLand.  He is obsessed with anything Lightening McQueen so I couldn't wait to show him Disney's interpretation of Radiator Springs.  It took him a little while to warm up and I am not quite sure he actually got it, but it was very very cool.
 
 
Disney really out did themselves with this attraction.  It looks exactly like the movie.  It had some fun rides for younger kids and older kids.  One of my favorite rides actually was the cars ride that took  you through Radiator Springs and raced other people. Jonah was too short to go on it, but Brody and I enjoyed it!

 
The characters were all out and the lines to say hi weren't too bad.  Jonah however decided to be shy -something he is definetly not.


 
Jonah meeting Mator.  Very cool for a mom whose son loves his cars.  It was like Jonah was meeting his idol, haha.

 
Radiator Springs.

 
Jonah wasn't as shy meeting Mickey.  He had a big smile the whole time.  Mickey really liked Asher too.

 
Walking through Mickey's house.

 
Radiator Springs at night.  The whole town turned on their lights and it was so cool.



 
Little train ride in A Bug's Life.

 
This little guy was mommy's champ all day!  He was SO good. 


 
Jonah's best friend, Lightening McQueen.


 
Ice Cream - Chocolate of course!

 
Jonah and Brody on Finding Nemo ride.  Jonah liked this one too, although when it got dark, he kept yelling "I can't see!!!".
 
Bumpy start but a fun day. Here's to my next thirty years!
 
Thanks for all the bday love.
