More Disney....and Disney Food

Day two at Disneyland meant we were pros at this point.  We made it to the rope drop where I took Parker and Henry back to Star Wars rides while Randy took the big boys to Space Mountain.  They were the first ones to ride the ride.  They are officially rope drop pros.

Parker's Choice:  Millennium Falcon

Henry's face as he screamed, "I'm so excited!  I'm so excited!"

Henry finally got to ride on all the little kid rides and he was practically skipping (but he doesn't know how) from ride to ride.  Parker pretended not to enjoy the rides but secretly he loved not having to put his brave on.

Eventually all the lines were getting way too long so we played around on Tom Sawyer's Island, a perfect place for boys to get their wiggles out.

Don't worry, my boys still love all things pirate.  After taking the whole family to ride Pirates of the Caribbean, Landon and Parker started binge-watching all the movies they didn't know existed.

Naturally, my boys were the only ones to figure out how to raise this creepy skeleton and treasure chest out of the water.

Time for some souvenir shopping.  No one bought a helmet but they were fun to try on!

Ethan was ready to go into some serious debt for a custom light saber.  I think the cheapest one was a couple hundred dollars.  

Landon and Parker decided to buy these basic light sabers.  They look pretty cool in the dark

We discovered a shop where you can build your own droid.  It was so cool!  Conveyor belts full of robot parts were moving around the store as people created their custom droids.  Randy and the boys instantly knew this was a Disney experience they couldn't pass up so Randy made a reservation for them later that night.  

I don't have a picture of them with their finished product, but trust me, they are cool.  It was super fun to haul all this stuff onto the plane :)

Ethan bought this stuffed animal that was so soft and actually heavy.  Parker also got a cool Star Wars penguin thing that perched on his shoulder and talked.

We waited around for the parade and poor Henry slept through it.  It was fun until all the princesses started coming and we knew that was our cue to head back to the hotel for a break.

Here are a few pics of the yummy food.  We ordered everything through the app and never had to swipe a credit card so it felt free.  It wasn't :) But it sure beat eating mushy sandwiches from the backpack.

The biggest, most delicious raspberry macaron I've ever had

Marcus still talks about these loaded hot dogs (chili, nacho cheese w/bacon)

spicy meatball sandwich

Randy's dessert

I showed this case to Randy and he could barely restrain himself from buying one of everything.  He bought one of almost everything.  I was not mad.

churros with dark chocolate sprinkles, chips, and cherry sauce

funnel cake with pumpkin cheesecake and vanilla ice cream.....heavenly!

Marcus still talks about this one too.  Mac and cheese topped with bacon inside a cone.  We could've eaten ten of these.  Not pictured were all the meals.  Flo's Diner and Holly Jolly Cafe did not disappoint!

This mango soft serve ice cream with blue raspberry slushy was probably my favorite thing of all. One of these on a hot sunny day would be manna from heaven.  We loved it even in the cold, pouring rain.
