The girls and I went on Toad's Wild Ride. Then Wes and the girls waited for Peter Pan. Violet woke up and we went on a few rides alone. I actually got a little teary on the merry go round. I suddenly missed my parents. I was okay though and we all grouped together to ride Alice in Wonderland. 
Wes had been getting work phone calls for a couple of days and at times it was disruptive to our vacation, but having his own law practice sometimes things come up and I just have to be understanding. One attorney seemed aware that Wes was out of town and decided to schedule an emergency hearing right when we were in Disneyland. Wes had to attend by phone, so he headed back to the hotel for a couple of hours. The girls and I stayed behind to continue in the fun. We started with some shopping. The girls were given $20 at the beginning of the trip to spend however they wanted. Adelle after days of debating finally chose this very pretty Minnie Mouse Princess hat.
We also caught the Tiana show again.
This time Adelle waited patiently to be included in the fun.
Sure enough she got her turn to dance with Tiana and her group. Lydia, Violet and I looked on. Wes had the camcorder back at the hotel so I snapped lots of photos.
After the show we found some more characters. We were lucky enough to run into the Fairy Godmother. She was very sweet, just like a real grandmother. 
We then waited in line at Pixie Hollow to meet the fairies. Violet had another super diaper that I got to change right in the line, but I managed.
We haven't watched the Tinkerbell movies yet so we didn't know all of the fairies names. They thought Lydia's name at first was Vidia which I guess is a mean fairy, and they thought that was funny. 
We then spotted Minnie Mouse and had to wait in line for her!! Violet had fallen asleep, but Minnie wanted to peek in the stroller at our little baby and she blew her kisses. So sweet!
We then found Marry Poppins and Burt! 
They were very engaging and funny. Burt informed me that I had a cat on my head. He wanted to make sure I was aware. 
Wes joined back up with us and seemed in good spirits. He had won his trial even though he was all the way in California away from everything. I love that man :)
Lydia decided to spend her money on a beautiful, purple parasol. She is really hoping Wes will make her a costume to match it for Halloween. We had dinner at a yummy Mexican restaurant. We then ordered two sundaes at the Golden Horseshoe and watched Billy and the Hillbillies perform! They were great. My camera had a meltdown though. I had dropped it earlier in the week and when I was trying to open the lens I think my finger bumped it and it made a horrible clicking noise every time the camera turned on after that. At least it happened on the last day.
We then began heading over to California Adventure, but we wanted to get some last pictures at Disneyland before we left.
Can you see Tinkerbell?
We also ran into Pluto. Violet loved Pluto and sucked on his big, round nose a couple of times.
We took a few pictures right in front of the garden and train station. It was the funniest thing when Violet smiled really big. The crowd around us all said "Ahhhhhh". We all laughed. She is our happy baby.
On the way into California Adventure the girls stood by their letters.
Even though some of us were pretty tired we decided to stay late for the World of Color show. It was the first night the show was open to the public. We went to our fast pass red section at 7:30 and hung out. At least we had plenty of snacks.
Adelle even made a new friend. She thought he was so funny.
Violet was great! We thought she looked quite cute in Daddy's shoes.
It was finally time for the preshow. We enjoyed the giant, lighted characters that walked by.
The actual show was AMAZING! It was a mix of water, images, fire and music!!! We all loved it!
When it was over we headed back to our hotel for the last time, but we did manage to finally see the firworks that we had been hearing for nights. We were sad to be leaving the parks, but we were all so grateful we'd had the chance to spend some magical days together :)
