Disney Day 1! 2022


DISNEY 2022 


So thankful that we made this trip actually happen. 

We were having brunch with our friends back in October, and they are obsessed with all things Disney. We casually mentioned that we should go together. And  just like that we got planning and we made it happen faster than we thought! 

Two nights before we leave, Matt got an update that his dream truck was taken in on trade, and we could trade our Yukon for it! I was nervous- I love love loved our Yukon, but Matt does extensive research on our vehicles so I knew it was a good one - but was super nervous for the lack of space. 

With 6 of us, in a 6 seater, traveling as a whole fam means a kiddo is in the front! Not ideal in my mind, but alas... hubby knows... and the space in the truck is actually amazing & it's lifted, so I feel super duper safe in it! 

We packed up the truck on Friday and made the drive west! We LOVED our hotel. It was not on site, so we saved a ton, and were able to get a suite, with bunk beds, such a fun thing for the kiddos. Our room had firework view and we were on the same floor as the pool and rooftop deck. The best part was that our Cali family was able to meet up with us! 

Here are many many pictures!

So thankful that my aunt and uncle are spontaneous souls and braved the traffic to come meet us & generously treat us to supper! What a fun evening & seriously the best way to kick off a fun weekend!


Love you Auntie Mo!! 
The kiddos passed out very quick night 1. All snug. 
Here we are! Bright and early, ready to open up California Adventure! It's big rides there are Pixar and Avengers, so we went in theme of course. Such a great way to reuse our Halloween shirts!
Forkie is living her best life with cool light up shoes, in case we last til dark!
Everyone headed to Cars Land and Spidey, we headed to kiddy stuff and walked right on every single ride. 

The joy was huge. 
The tears leaving every single ride were huge too. 
My fave. XO

40 minutes in and we are already bribing. It's gonna be a good day. 😆
These brave souls walked onto Incredicoaster! They both overcame a fear that day! Good job guys!

This cowgirl tho. 💓
Hudson is so beautiful. He was in awe of every single thing. Reality vs fantasy is challenge for him. He was living his best life & it was so very special to see him think so much of it was real. 

He said he knew the code and was wondering why the campus wasn't opening 
Bless his sweet self. 

We got rained on! But while others were huddled to stay dry, we got our new shoes muddy and embraced it all and beat the crowds
( Can you tell I can not stand waiting in lines - especially with a 2 year old ;))


I love that our friends dressed in character too!
The character meet ups are different with covid but so much better! Gone be the lines! Just snap a pic and a wave and youre on your way!
Lulu is obsessed with Minnie.
And she naps. 

Hannah made a bee line for the unicorn hot air balloon and got it! 


Oh Harrison 
Us girls!!
The guys!!
Grizzly River Run was so fun for these adventure seekers and oh so wet. 

Meanwhile Forkie and I had a date
And saw this cute guy!
Cars Land was literally the Cars movie. So well done. 
Matt strolled Lulu this ride. 

Free ice cream! Yes please! The guy loved Hannah's outfit & we had no idea we were supposed to order and pay on the app. 
Clarabelle!
The girls took good care of hudson!
And PJ time, new minnie stuffy, and gorgeous curls. 
Day 1. Done.
