Disneyland 2015

September 28, 2015


I’m afraid to say… better yet, rather proud to say, we’re turning into those people. Yes, quote unquote, Disney People. The ones who yearn to go back the day after they unpack their suitcases, have ‘Let It Go’ streaming on Pandora, giggle when they put on Mickey PJ’s or mouse ears for no good reason other than to induce smiles, talk about their magical trip on the daily, and of course put ‘annual pass holders’ at the top of their Christmas wish list. Oh friends, it really is the happiest place on earth, especially during the 60th Anniversary! And if any of you are lucky enough to be there right now, ship me a raspberry Mickey Macaron (c’est magnifique!) please?! Or a Matterhorn Macroon, would also suffice. Psst! Both can be found at the Jolly Holiday Bakery on Mainstreet. Also coming soon: a recap of Little Miss Minnie’s first trip to Disneyland!

    Yes!!!! We’ve had annual passes this year to WDW and it’s been magical to say the least!!!! Enjoy!

      What a lucky donald and daisy ducks, you have!

  • Veronique Roy September 29, 2015 at 12:11 am

    It’s so beautifully done!! Can’t wait to go back!! Can I ask you what app you used to put together such a nice family vacay recap?

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:30 pm

      I use iMovie 🙂

  • Andreanne Woodbury September 29, 2015 at 1:10 am

    This is so magical! I didn’t want your video to stop.
    Beautiful family and Disney brings smiles to everybody!

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:31 pm

      Honestly, I wish I would’ve captured more footage to include – this is only a small part of our day; but we were having too much fun for me to keep the camera out the whole time! ha!

  • Anna bumford September 29, 2015 at 3:37 am

    This made me soooo happy sweet friend! I smiled the whole time and felt the magic. Goodness it really is the happiest place on earth! Can’t wait to see more pics! Love your beautiful family! ??

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:31 pm

      Pics coming soon! Love you, friend!

    Do you guys live in Southern California? If so I would highly recommend passes. We gave up birthday and Christmas presents and went for passes his last year and we LOVE it!!

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:31 pm

      Smart choice to forgo everything else! I’d raise my hand to that! Me! Me!

  • Jennifer September 29, 2015 at 5:36 am

    You are so beautiful and so is your family!! Would also love to know how you created that video? We are getting married and would love to create small blips like this for friends and family leading up to the big day! Is that iMovie?

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:32 pm

      Yes, just plain ole iMovie! I want to try other programs that are more legit… but for now this works!

  • Shannon September 29, 2015 at 11:19 am

    Great video! Do you use a video camera or phone to take footage? I have an 11 month old and my husband is convinced cell phone video is all we need… I’m not so sure haha!

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:32 pm

      It’s my DSLR camera, but iPhone also works!

  • Sarah September 29, 2015 at 12:08 pm

    It certainly looks magical – can’t bet Disney for some fun escapism!

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:35 pm

      Truth!

  • Nives Kellis September 29, 2015 at 12:27 pm

    What a cute video! Ur fam is the cutest!!! My hubby and I plan to take our two boys to Disneyland next year (so excited!) random fact..Our boys are similar ages… so thanks for the gorg sneak peek at the park as its a bit harder for us to get insider info from Syd Australia… G’day from Oz xx

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:33 pm

      Oh I can’t WAIT for you guys! Thanks for saying hello, friend!

  • Brittany @ LemonLimeLife September 29, 2015 at 12:47 pm

    Your joy-filled video should be a promo for Disney! It makes me want to pack my bags and board a plan right this minute to experience all the laughter and smiles myself! Mickey Mouse ears and all 🙂

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:33 pm

      Disney, you hear that!? Haha! If only that wish would come true!

  • April September 29, 2015 at 7:04 pm

    What program do you use to make your videos? Do you take videos from your phone? This looks like so much fun!

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:33 pm

      iMovie and my DSLR camera!

  • Jenedy September 29, 2015 at 8:05 pm

    We just celebrated Kid Appreciation Day 2015 (Sept. 26th) by taking our crew to Lagoon for the first time. It was a blast! It’s amazing to me the enjoyment I get out of watching my kids enjoy the kiddie rides. Looks like you guys had a wonderful trip! Thanks for sharing! Love you!

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:34 pm

      I can remember a trip to lagoon as a child. That wild mouse ride was a doozie! ha!

  • Bayleigh September 30, 2015 at 6:43 am

    Such a sweet video!! Looks like you guys had a ton of fun and some delicious food to boot? Hope you were able to get on a lot of rides!

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:34 pm

      Oh the heavenly food. Food alone is worth going to Disney at any chance you can get!

  • Tricia September 30, 2015 at 5:58 pm

    We JUST got back from spending a week there on Sunday. We attended the Mickey’s Halloween party while we were there also. I wonder if we were at the park at the same time!

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:35 pm

      Hope you’re reliving the magic at home! We’re trying to hold onto it as long as we can!

  • Brandi September 30, 2015 at 8:45 pm

    How do you put these videos together? Also, do you just use a video camera/camera to do so? I am so behind…I’m only currently using my iPhone lol.

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:35 pm

      It’s iMovie and my DSLR camera!

  • Brigette September 30, 2015 at 10:04 pm

    How sweet! Your little girl looked so precious! Cute cute cute little boys! I loved Gage’s shirt. What a great family trip.

    • missy October 6, 2015 at 5:35 pm

  • lilly October 6, 2015 at 5:37 pm
