Tokyo Disneyland, December 2014

It has become quite a seasonal tradition for us to attend Tokyo Disneyland for the holidays. I love to check out the Halloween decorations, experience the large Christmas tree at Christmas, and check out the Easter eggs in the spring. So a few weeks ago Daddy took off work and we headed to Tokyo Disney. It never disappoints us. We happened to attend on a day where the park was closing early for a private party so we had to leave at 6:30. Most people would say pick another day so you can stay longer. However, when it is colder, mama is pregnant, and you have small kids, you are quite ready to leave the park at 6:30 and be home by a decent time. At least we are. When you live so close to Disney, you do not feel this need to exhaust yourselves and get there when it opens and stay until it closes. We picked the perfect day! Because other people did not want to come to the park when it was closing early, it was not crowded at all. The sunshine was out and we saw three parades, well at least Miss M and I did. The K Man and daddy opted to just watch the Christmas parade. For the other two parades, the K Man rode the roller coaster over and over and drove the cars. He loves all the rides and Miss M likes the four rides she is used to and parades. We have reached the point where we have to go together with daddy because if I go by myself with both kids, makes it kind of hard to split up. And let's face it, when you go to the happiest place on earth you do not want to spend the day fighting with kids on what rides we are going to do. We went with our friends who are sadly getting ready to move back to England in just a little over a week. We are thankful we got to spend a magical day with them. It was a fabulous day. To top it off, Miss M lost her fist tooth when we got home that night biting into a banana. She hardly ate the entire day at Disney and the tooth had been loose for quite some time. Finally, it came out. Mama was ready for it to come out as with the loose tooth came lots of drama from our princess.
