a souvenir party hat, a cake to decorate,
and a prize sticker.
Of course she fell asleep right in time for the party

OHH Carson is so excited too!!!
Mr Pat A Cake himself at our table!
He comes out and sings songs, tells jokes,
and plays some games, he was funny!
everyone got a cake to decorate, even Carson
So they said they were having a contest to see who
could decorate the best and they were coming around to
all the tables and he came to ours and he said
ohh I love this, whats your name, she said Brooke and
he said I don't think I have ever seen this color before
(she mixed them all) he said we will have to name it
after you and he said something like, Brookes
supercalifragilisic (yup didnt spell that right)
grey!
she thought she was pretty special!
This is moms cake
ohhh look who woke up!
ohhh ya he totally loved it!
and the prize for the winner was that
everyone was the winner and everyone
got the award ribbon stickers!
kinda disapointing, I totally should have won, haha!
Out comes Mickey and Minnie to sing to the kids
and do Pictures!!!
at the end of the song they shot out confetti
someone got ahold of some cake
yum it was tasty!
Mr Pat A Cake came and sat at our table and chatted
with us for like 5 min. He took out some balls and things
and was doing magic tricks for the kids.
Can I just tell you how much fun we had at this party!
Doesn't this face say it all :)
If not this one will!!!!
I will never forget this day and how much
fun this was and how special they made the
birthday girl feel, Disneyland is the best!!!
She wanted to open a gift at the party, so I brought
one in the park too
I got one of these for Olivia at the Disney
outlet in Vegas, last time because we spent
her real birthday in Disneyland
so when we decided to come back for Brookes
I had to search online and find another (Vegas outlet,
said they didn't have any more)
and I found one and so they both have it!
Teacups!!!
The girls say this is their favorite :)
ohh ya she loves it :)
AHHHHH HELP!!!!
got settled down for Fantasmic and she crashed!
Mr Carson you are so silly!
ohh its starting and Carson is glued!
Mickey shooting out fireworks, ohh ya he is cool!
This is like the parade for the off season. Everyone hops
on the boat and floats on by.
its so hard to capture fireworks on my dinky camera
but this one turned out good! Look a star, when you
wish upon a star!!!
Look at this kid, he didn't blink, didn't want to miss
a thing!
Birthday Dinner at Cheesecake Factory, notice the
Mac n Cheese dinner untouched... they were SO tired

The Princess Makeover at Bibbity-Bobbity-Bootique

she loved the face shield haha
lots of gel to slick back that hair!
so they get a make over (choose from 3 styles of hair)
face jewerly, a ring, make up (and they keep the set)
painted nails, a tiara(I paid extra 3.00 for)
a hair extension piece, a sash and a draw string
back pack to keep it all in, oh they keep the combs
and brushes too.
so this is her picking out her face jewerly
adding the hair piece
Picking out the ring

Her giant ring, picture is kinda blury but she chose
a big clear diamond cause it goes with everything
haha smart girl
make up time
and nails
then they sprinkle on some pixie dust glitter and
tell her to make a wish.
then put on the royal sash
then they have these curtains closed and there is the
little cinderella birds in the middle and they
loudly say announcing the newest Princess

around him haha so cute!
he put his arm around her to sign her book
this is when he was talking to her (it may have been a girl
Im not sure but either way she loved it and it was so cute)
These guys were the best! The mad hatter
was SO funny! He said ohh Rapunzel
you look different ohh no you haven't been
eating any mushrooms have you and Brooke
just smiled so I said yup she did and he said
you just get a drink right away and they talked
to her a bit and then they saw Olivia sleeping in the
stroller and they said ohh I see you have another
Princess with you Sleeping Beauty I see, you mind if we
get a picture with her and I said sure and they came and grabbed
the stroller walked her over and Hatter said Alice I think we
should Join her, shall we and Alice said ohh yes....
so they squatted down and took a little rest with her.
Oh my goodness they were too much!
I can't express how much fun we had and how
much I just love Disneyland!
Our new friend Alice on small world
Liv loves this ride and the babies
Ariel!
Brooke LOVED her makeover and her new long hair
she kept playing with it all day. People would laugh and
laugh and come up to us and say we have just enjoyed
watching her play with her hair. She is beautiful.
she would pull it to the front and softly comb it with her fingers
then flip it over her shoulders and tilt her head back and let it
flow, I mean real dramatic like, it was so funny! She would twirl
and twirl and the workers would say hello Princess and she
would tell me, mom they think Im a real princess!
This is what Disneyland is about! This makes me so happy
as a mother to see my kids so happy. I really hope we will always
be able to afford to come to Disney once a year. It is the best
family vacation, I mean don't get me wrong Hawaii is
totally where I belong but when it comes to going as a family
and having a blast, making memories to last a lifetime.
Disneyland is the place! -hopefully Hawaii will sneek its way
in there a time or too aslo though- hahaha

So we got annual passes this year and there was a contest
for pass holders only to get a sneek peek on the new ride
of star tours. So it happened to be going on the time we
would be there for Brookes birthday and guess what I won
3 tickets! So we did baby swap with Brooke and we each got
to go and take her! It was really fun, RJ loved it, I have no idea
star wars stuff so it didn't mean much to me but it was fun still hahaha!
