Julia's Disneyland Birthday

Last post about Disneyland for the year, well, unless someone comes with us and we take cute pictures in the next year. But last post for a while at least.

For Julia's 4th birthday we decided to skip a birthday party with friends and go to Ariel's Grotto in California Adventure instead. Julia was really excited that she was going to get lunch with the princesses for her birthday.

A few rides before lunch.

The main event for the day, lunch at Ariel's Grotto to meet the princesses. Apparently the parents of every other 4 year old had the same idea because it was every little girl's birthday who was eating there. I've never seen a higher concentration of Disneyland birthday pins. Julia was really excited to meet Ariel and so Julia could show Ariel her changing color Ariel shirt.

At Ariel's Grotto a bunch of princesses come by while you're eating and to take pictures and chat a minute.

For being so excited about it Julia was surprisingly nonchalant every time a princess came by. She seemed more interested in her food sometimes which is weird because she almost never eats when she's excited. Here she is with a giant piece of food in her cheek that she stuffed in her mouth right before she got up to take the picture.

Micah surprised us by drinking a full glass of milk, but behaved himself pretty well.
