Disney Valentine's Day

Heard that there's new deco for Valentine's Day at Disneyland, so we had to check it out.

This was also the first weekend with perfect Disney weather. So everyone and their mom was over there! We decided to just park at Downtown Disney. We were buying something anyways, so we would get at least 3 hours free parking. Which was more than enough with Zoë.

We were also pretty hungry, so we grabbed food over at Earls.


After eating, we were about to make our way to Disneyland, but saw these cute window images for Mickey's birthday.


Zoë instantly gravitated towards Minnie Mouse's of course!

And now Disneyland!

The front entrance had hearts all around the Mickey Face right when you get in. A bit cheesy looking, but does make for nice pictures.


The lamp posts still had banners for Mickey's birthday.

Then, we saw that Minnie Mouse had a really cute spring outfit on. Sadly, though, they closed the line for photos with her. Whelp, guess we gotta go with the Goofster.

As for the actual Valentine's deco, they had these around the Main Street entrance, which they've had every Valentine's.

Also, some very pretty spring flowers.

One of the newest additions is this cute structure.

Aaaaand, that's pretty much it.

Zoë wanted to ride Dumbo. We headed over there and were waiting for our return time. Of course, she saw the cotton candy cart and wanted one. She got one and was so happy!


And here were are on Dumbo! It was just me and her because Daddy fears he'll get vertigo again.

We decided to hit up Toontown today too. The Jolly Trolley was empty and begging for passengers, so we hopped right on.

We also saw that Donald was over at his boat, so we went over to stop and say Hi!

Now for the fun part. We coaxed Zoë to give Gadget's Go Coaster since she was of height. And, well, we forgot how fast it went! Annnnd that the first drop was actually pretty scary for a kiddo. Even worse, they gave us the back seat!

Poor baby. She put her hands up while we were going up, but once we dropped, so did her face. And right before the end, she was literally about to cry. Thank goodness it was over before she full on balled. Guess this ride is a no go now too.

We felt bad and had to make her feel better so we said we'll get her ice cream and a new toy.

Here's her ice cream!

Other than the roller coaster, Zoë had a blast today!

Zoë's Birthday Celebration Continues

We want to make it tradition to take Zoë to Goofy's kitchen for her birthday every year. This marks the second year that we're taking her! Although, the first time, wasn't exactly on her birthday. Still, we're definitely taking her here every year for her birthday!

While waiting for our table, we go to the picture spot to have a picture with Goofy. We were surprised to see Mickey Mouse though! Awesome!! We even decided to let Zoë walk up to her on his own.


She did go up to him, but was still kinda shy. She didn't crack a smile for the photo. Hahaha.

Then Mommy and Daddy hop into the pic! Was kinda awkward though because Mickey was still crouching down with Zoë. Of course, we decided to go back in line and take a second one.

Our table was still not ready, so I saw an opportunity to take a cute pic of Zoë in front of the Goofy's kitchen sign.

And finally, dinner! Got three quick plates between me and Zoë alone.

Zoë didn't hesitate to dive right into her meal! I'm guessing she was pretty famished!

The best part of eating here, other than the food? Why, the characters of course!

The Zoë totally loves her spaghetti. Completely love how she eats it!

And can't forget about dessert!

She even got her very own cupcake for her birthday!

Spotted Minnie Mouse and Pluto on the way out.

And now this little princess is off to her castle for some beauty sleep (at least Mommy hopes).
